Villas in Pula

Find a villa in Pula to stay

Pula is a small coastal town and is well-connected, so the area to rent a villa in Pula is not as important as the fact that you are comfortable. It all depends on whether you want to enjoy the beach, make cultural visits or get some rest. Those who have little time and want to see as many monuments as possible, the best option is to rent a villa in the centre of Pula, especially the streets surrounding the Istra Archaeological Museum. If you prefer the beach, the southern part of the city is a suitable option. And if you want to rest and enjoy nature, we recommend the outskirts of the northern area, where you will find numerous villas with more room for family and friends.
