+Our stay here was truly unforgettable. A little paradise in Istria and a hidden oasis of nature, peace, and pure relaxation. This place offers a completely next-level holiday experience, where every moment feels calm, luxurious, and deeply connected to the beauty of the surroundings. What makes it even more special are the hosts, who have clearly poured so much love, care, and attention into every single detail. Their warmth and hospitality create such a welcoming and intimate atmosphere that you instantly feel at home. A special highlight is the breakfast, which is simply phenomenal. It beautifully combines local and modern cuisine, offering regional specialties and dishes for every taste. Enjoying it with the breathtaking view stretching from the rolling hills all the way to the sea truly feels like being in a small paradise on earth. Looking forward to coming back.

“Charming hilltop residence with beautiful view, great food and wonderful hosts”
+Rob and Lisette were wonderful hosts. Every day the breakfast was made by Rob from fresh local and European ingredients of highest quality as well as fresh bread. Breakfast was also the opportunity for casual chat with other guests. The house and its surroundings are stunning, well maintained, with a beautiful sea view from the terrace. The room itself is the size of a studio apartment, very comfortable and with lots of natural light. Every day spent there was and absolute pleasure and we look forward to visiting again.

“Come and be welcome!!!”
+More than perfect stay. Great architecture and lush garden. Beautiful and comfortable rooms with exceptional view. Natural pool is gorgeous and so well mentained that water is diamond clear. Everything in this B&B is spotlesly clean and designed with great attention to details. And the owners make you feel at home. Breakfasts are fresh, deliciously made with loveand great care. Each day different tablescape, each day new menu... Breakfast is almost brunch and all the guest gathering in common table is so welcoming. We could write so much more beautiful things... A really long list... Yes, and don't forget to ask the hosts for advice on best restaurants, things to see and visit!

“Monte Piccolo is a 5* experience- a slice of heaven in the Istrian countryside.”
+Monte Piccolo is a slice of heaven in the Istrian countryside. Rob and Lisette have created a piece of paradise, that is further elevated by their generous hosting, and their expertise in healthy food, eating and wine that they share with their guests. The leisurely communal breakfasts (benefitting from Lisette's expertise as a nutritionist and featuring home-grown produce and bread cooked daily by Rob) were a stand out feature of our stay, and really allowed their dedication to wellbeing to shine through. We thoroughly enjoyed the social aspect of getting to know Rob & Lisette and the other guests from across Europe. This was always balanced with the ability to have private/alone time whenever needed. The standard of the accommodation is 5* and immaculately clean. Its position on the hill overlooking the nearby village (with great Konobas to eat out in) and looking out to sea (25 minutes drive away) was stunning, and it benefitted from a constant gentle breeze. Just one of the (many) stand-out features for me was the living swimming pool. It would have been easy to spend a week sitting by the pool and swimming, watching the dragonflies and the swifts at their daily morning and dus
−Absolutely nothing. Rob & Lisette have created the most wonderful home and business that we feel honoured they have shared with us.
