"A quiet bay on the outskirts of Pula, on the Croatian mainland, is the setting for Boutique Hotel Valsabbion, a small and confident operation that’s quietly amassed a cult following. The house is modern, and the style is eclectic and unique, conceived by its proprietors. Many of its eleven rooms look out to sea — it’s set just fifty feet from the Adriatic — and so does the heated outdoor pool. A small spa offers quasi-medical interventions, and there are two bars, one by the poolside and another on the beach, where drinks and light fare are available all day long." - Tablet Hotels
