Villa Adela
Lovran – medieval city surrounded by luxury villas and rural hinter ground
Villa Adela – luxurious apartment, 2 bedrooms, sleeps 4/6

The little Istrian town of Lovran is located in an ambience characterized by the blue of the sea and the green slopes of Mt Učka. Until the 19th century, it was a city renowned for its maritime past and a picturesque medieval centre. At the beginning of the 20th century, it turned into a fashionable place and winter resort for the Austro-Hungarian gentry. The name Lovran derives from the word lovor, or laurel, whose freshness adds to its particular charm. The Romans decked their heroes with laurel, and according to one legend, Lovran was created when the Roman patrician Marcus Agrippa, in the first century AD, built his summer residence on the site of today's town. Agrippa had the whole world to choose from, yet he picked Lovran. And there is no wonder. In the next twenty centuries, people from all over the world came and returned to Lovran, enthralled by the marvelous combination of sea and mountain, cityscape and landscape, past and present.

You can visit the historic old-town of Lovran or entertain your selves in various shops, café’s, open market-place, bakeries, restaurants and sport possibilities. Traditional manifestations that draw numerous visitors to Lovran, pointing out its connection with the rich, fruitful nature are “Wild Asparagus days” in the spring, “Cherry festival” in the summer and “Chestnut festivity” locally known as Marunada in the fall.

Villa Adela – luxurious apartment tells a story of love and tradition

Villa Adela was built in 1905 in the heart of Lovran, a small town between the green forests and the blue sea, at the seaside. It has recently been restored regaining its beauty from the period of the golden era of the Austrian-Hungarian Monarchy. Residence “Adela” was renovated with gentle attention, sensibility and desire for the clients to feel as in their second home.
True love of the captain from Lovran and a beautiful Spanish singer Adela was crowned by a happy, peaceful life in Lovran. Villa Adela was built as a sign of his love for her.
