Maistra Collection Rovinj – Your World Of Discovery

It is said that Rovinj has some of the most beautiful sunsets on the Adriatic coast. One way to know for sure is to reserve a good table in one of its excellent restaurants. The other is to just sit on a bench by the sea. There are as many and as unique sunset spots as there are preferences.

For an authentic Croatian experience, Rovinj is the ideal destination. This charming town immerses you in Croatian culture, boasting traditional taverns, historic streets, and Michelin-star culinary delights that pay homage to the country’s heritage.The chances are, this wonderful city on the west coast of Istria will steal your heart with its energy, intertwined cobblestone alleys, and colourful facades. Rovinj is a city of artists, fishermen, and great hosts. Its residents are people who live their lives to the fullest, and they will gladly share that feeling with you. How about a drink on the terrace of one of the lively cafés and small talk with the locals, or a bite of a delicacy such as the famous oysters from the nearby Lim Bay? All that in the shade of narrow streets or out in the open, under the sun. Cobblestone alleys, small, intimate galleries, and museums on the way to the Church of St Euphemia, whose bell tower rises above the picturesque town, are just a touch of what awaits you.
