We ended our Croatian vacation with two nights here. It was very relaxing. The room was as expected, with a nice view over the valley. The restaurant food was good, though I have to admit that after two weeks in Croatia, I just wasn't very hungry :-)  I found the food a bit heavy for how I was feeling - gnocchi is a fav, but it's not a light meal. My wife's fish dish would perhaps have suited me better. We also had an evening with a wine flight that was really enjoyable.  We particularly enjoyed the sparkling wine! The pumpkin soup was enough food for me that evening.  Though my wife did try out the pool since the weather was almost OK for that, the water was very cold. Given that it was the end of September, that's not terribly surprising!  It's a beautiful view, though.  We'll happily go back some day!

This place was so charming and lovely.  The staff was exceptional and very helpful.  Many spoke English, which was good as we do not speak Croatian.  The rooms were very comfortable and we loved the pool with its gorgeous views of the winery and the valley below.

The food was exceptional and reasonably priced for the quality of the food.  I also enjoyed their red wines, they were quite good.
