The Brijuni Islands are one of Croatia's most fascinating national parks — an archipelago of 14 islands off the southwest coast of Istria that combine Roman ruins, a safari park with exotic animals, a golf course, and the former summer residence of President Tito into an experience unlike any other in Croatia. A day trip to Brijuni is regularly cited as one of the highlights of any Istrian holiday.
Our collection of luxury villas near the Brijuni Islands places you in southern Istria, within easy reach of the boat departures from Fazana while also offering access to Pula's cultural attractions and the wider Istrian peninsula. Every property features a private pool and has been personally inspected.
The main island of Veliki Brijun is the park's centrepiece. Visitors arrive by organised boat tour from Fazana and spend several hours exploring by electric train or bicycle. The Roman villa ruins at Verige Bay include remarkably preserved mosaic floors and temple foundations. The safari park houses zebras, llamas, elephants, and other animals originally gifted to Tito by world leaders during the Cold War — creating a surreal experience in a Mediterranean setting.
