Family Hotel Amarin sits on a lush, pine-clad peninsula just outside Rovinj, with the Adriatic Sea on its doorstep and views across the water to the old town’s bell tower. A coastal path and waterfront promenades invite easy strolls with pushchairs, while pebble and platform beaches provide clear, swimmable water typical of Istria.

Rovinj itself is a short hop away by tourist train or seasonal water taxi, perfect for evening gelato runs, exploring cobbled lanes, and sampling Istrian cuisine in harbourside konobas. You’re far enough from the bustle to keep things peaceful for little ones, but close enough that day trips are simple.

Nearest shops, bars & restaurants: approx. 300m
Rovinj resort centre / Old Town: approx. 4.5km

Seasonal connections to Rovinj:
• Tourist train runs regularly throughout the day*
• Water taxis also available to Rovinj*

Approx. transfer time from airport: 1 hour 30 minutes from Pula (PUY)
