ROXANICH Winery and Design Hotel

This hotel offered the best customer service I’ve ever experienced. The staff were incredibly kind, welcoming, and genuinely accommodating. From the moment we arrived, we felt cared for and valued. The food was absolutely spectacular. Our group had a variety of dietary restrictions, and the kitchen went above and beyond to create meals that not only met our needs but truly exceeded our expectations. Every dish was thoughtful, delicious, and beautifully presented. The room was spotless, and the bed was unbelievably comfortable—we all slept like royalty. The entire property was impeccably clean, and the location? Straight out of a postcard. It’s the kind of place that feels like a dream, both in scenery and in service. This was hands-down one of the best vacations we’ve ever had. I honestly couldn’t recommend this place more highly. If you’re considering staying here, don’t hesitate—it’s everything you hope for and more.

The hotel was nice, but definitely lacked the level of service that one would expect for the price. Motovun is a cute little town and the view of the hotel is great but I think it came up short in other areas. We visited at the end of May and unfortunately the pool was closed, pool bar was closed and generally the hotel felt quite empty.||Pros:|- View is gorgeous|- Spa/sauna area is nice. Multiple saunas, steam room and lounging area with refreshments. |- Staff was polite and helpful|- Breakfast buffet was good and staff was kind and accommodating||Cons:|- Pattern of clumsy things that happened like the garage lift not working, lights off in the stairwells and hallways so they were dark. Things closed, broken or not working properly. |- The hotel is eclectic, as advertised, but some things about this hotel are just plain weird. ||In summary, the staff were kind but the overall level of service and quality of the hotel and experience was less than desired for the price point. It seems like the hotel is more geared toward hosting events than functioning as a hotel that focused on the experiences of guests.

One of my favorite hotels of all time! The views, staff, food, architecture were all incredible. This was our last stop on a 10 day Croatian vacation; I was not expecting to love the area more than the two coastal stops but I did. We rented some electric bikes from Roxanich and had a great day touring the beautiful countryside and villages. The winery tour and tasting are also a can't miss, what an amazing job transforming this property to a modern winery!

Terrible customer service. Called a couple of minutes before arrival to cancel our reservation from 4. July - 6. July, due to a ‚burst water pipe‘, but they are still taking reservations (see pictures attached)?! They either had the fastest plumber ever fixing the leak on a weekend (!) and didn‘t inform us that we still could spend a night and/or offer any kind of compensation; or they simply lied because they were overbooked and just cancelled our reservation. No other properties in this category were available in the region, had to cancel our whole trip. Will be looking into legal options. So if you don‘t want a last minute surprise, stay clear of the place. UPDATE - was contacted by someone from the hotel after the review and offered compensation and an apology. It was a nice gesture which improved the impression the hotel made.

We spent just one night at Roxanich and honestly, I wish we had booked more. The hotel is absolutely stunning - beautifully designed, stylish, and so peaceful. If you’re looking for some quiet time surrounded by great wine and breathtaking views, this is the place to be. We stayed on a Monday, so the restaurant was unfortunately closed, but there are plenty of nice places to eat just a 10–15 minute drive away. Still, the highlight of our stay was definitely the wine. If you’re into rosé, please do yourself a favor and try the Mara - I’ve truly never tasted anything like it. It’s delicate, complex, and just beautiful. My husband preferred the Lara, a unique orange wine with an authentic, memorable character. Our room was clean and cozy - huge thanks to the hardworking housekeeping team. It had everything we needed, and we slept like babies thanks to the calm, quiet atmosphere. The entire team at Roxanich made our stay so special. The reception staff (I wish I remembered their names!) gave us a warm welcome and even took the time to show us around and explain the winery’s story. A special thank you goes to Phillip (I hope I’m spelling it right) at the lounge bar. There wasn’t a wine tasting on Monday - we just ordered a bunch of glasses to try on our own, but he made our time truly unforgettable - patiently explaining each wine we tried, sharing insights about winemaking and olive oil production in Croatia, and answering all our curious questions. THANK U, PHILLIP! 🧡 One small but memorable detail: I spotted a hot chili oil on the counter, and since I’m a huge fan of spicy flavors, I asked to try it - and wow. It was hands down one of the most delicious, spiciest oils I’ve ever tasted! All in all, Roxanich is a hidden gem. From the design and comfort to the wine and the team behind it all - everything exceeded our expectations. Can’t wait to come back and stay longer next time ❤️

There is a lot to say about everything that makes Roxanich a heavenly place to stay. You could say it’s the location, with an endless view that’s hard to fully grasp, and the sun that sets right behind that church in the distance. The architecture, quirky interior, the wine or the food... But what truly topped off our stay is the warmth and professional candidness of the staff. A special thank you to Sladjana for your welcome and genuine interest in making our stay the stay it became.

Great experience, design, view and general atmosphere! Special recognition for the laid-back but very knowledgeable sommelier Adela and the wait staff at the bar and restaurant that are not only pleasant but handle difficult guests with a high dose of professionalism and ease. Looking forward to the next stay!

Disclaimer: i did not sleep here. BUT, i did experience everything else. I have traveled through luxury hotels all over the world (truly, Americas, Middle East, Asia, EU), and this place will be remembered for ever. Each product proposed was an experience in of its self. Everything studied to the detail. Also the design was exceptional. Classic old World brought into the modern age. This is what Europe needs! Beyond that, the structure of the hotel and winery has been studied from the start for perfect operational use, as well as guest experience. The location, paradise on earth. You think the Maldives is better? Maybe for other aspects. Come here and check out what else the world has to offer! And lastly, but most importantly, the Team: Are you used to arrogant and stuck up European old-world staff? This is not it. This is the real classic welcoming, smiling, absolutely caring and refined European vibe I love about the old world. Ps I will not share pictures because none of them give justice. I came here in May. Beautifully sunny, overlooking a wine valley, luxury infinite pool overlooking it all, and not too hot. I will come definitely here again!
