Hotels in Istria, Croatia

Istria is a peninsula in northwestern Croatia, with a Mediterranean climate that means warm, sunny summers perfect for sailing along the Adriatic coast and mild winters ideal for truffle hunting in the forests around Motovun. You can explore Pula's 1st-century Roman amphitheater in spring, or cycle through hilltop villages like Grožnjan and sample local olive oils year-round. Summer temperatures hit around 86°F (30°C) for beach days at Rovinj, while winter lows of 41°F (5°C) make indoor truffle tastings and market visits a cozy option.
