Map & location


Porec, Pula and Istrian Coast, Croatia

Hotel Parentium Plava Laguna sits in the peaceful Zelena Laguna area, a pine-fringed peninsula just south of Poreč. Here, the coastline is classic Istria: rocky shelves, crystal-clear water and shady trees instead of crowds and beach clubs.

You’re close enough to dip into Poreč’s Venetian old town – complete with UNESCO-listed basilica, cobbled lanes and waterfront restaurants – but far enough away to feel in your own coastal bubble. Nearby you’ll find waterfront promenades, bike paths and boat jetties for exploring the wider Istrian coast.
