Map & location
Rovinj, Pula and Istrian Coast, Croatia
Hotel Lone sits at the edge of the protected Golden Cape Forest Park, a lush peninsula of pine and cypress trees that gently slopes down to crystal-clear coves. A short stroll leads you to a gently shelving pebble beach, while a scenic seaside promenade takes you to Rovinj’s Old Town, with its Venetian-style bell tower, cobbled lanes and waterfront restaurants. It’s an ideal base for combining relaxation, nature and culture on the Istrian coast.
