Description
Opatija is a fashionable Adriatic resort and one of the oldest touristic destinations in the region also called “Croatia’s Monte Carlo”. In the past it was a summer and winter destination for the Austro-Hungarian nobility because of its mild Mediterranean climate, and today it is a place of luxury hotels, former villas and private summer residences that have been turned into beautiful hotels, wellness centres, congress halls, and swimming pools. A walk in the well-tended parks and the seaside promenade Lungomare and a swim in the town swimming area or in one of the smaller bays offers the rare combination of being able to enjoy the charms of nature and a taste of the high life that reaches back into the spirit of the past.
