This unique high-end resort that is inimitably grounded in the specific Istrian lifestyle and architecture, stands for serenity, privacy, sense of chosen seclusion from the rest of the world, connection with nature, superb wine, and olive oil, superior gastronomy, a blend of tradition and elegance. This is our interpretation of boutique and a way of living that we are immensely proud of.”

MWHW: “Meneghetti Wine Hotel & Winery offers numerous unique services and experiences. One version of a perfect day would include a short bike ride through our vineyards down to our private beach area where a picnic basket would be waiting for you. After enjoying a casual meal with our awarded estate wine and relaxing in the turquoise Adriatic sea, you should try one of our signature spa treatments with olive oil produced at the estate. After the revigorating spa experience, we will set up a private table under a hundred-year-old tree and breathtaking starlight, and let you enjoy all the delicacies of our restaurant recommended by the Michelin guide. Your morning should be reserved for a long and lazy breakfast, followed by a refreshing summer cocktail at our pool surrounded by Meneghetti vineyards.
