Enveloped in a cloak of pines, the Valamar Sanfior Hotel occupies an area of true natural beauty beside the aquamarine waters of Rabac Bay.

The spacious rooms are decorated in classic Mediterranean style with large picture windows showcasing the breathtaking surroundings. All rooms have either views of the sea, verdant pine forest or the lush, flower-filled atrium.

Whilst nature provides a feast for the eyes, the Valamar Sanfior Hotel’s chefs prepare feasts of a gastronomic variety in the show-cooking restaurant.

A mouth-watering selection of fine cuisine includes delicious local specialties alongside Mediterranean fare and international favourites. Choose from a potpourri of treatments at the new wellness centre complete with indoor sea-view pool. Saunas, massages and pedicures are guaranteed to re-energize body and soul. The hotel’s stunning location also makes it an outstanding venue for conferences and special occasions.

Professional staff ensure combining business with pleasure is a stress-free activity. For relaxation stretch out beside the tear-shaped freshwater pool, or on idyllic beaches lapped by crystal clear seas.

Adventure beckons for the more active. Days can be filled biking along forest trails or scaling limestone peaks. From the hotel, nature lovers can explore an enchanting landscape of pine forests and olive groves. Sunset strolls along white pebbled beaches make it an amorous destination for lovers of a different kind. Peaceful solitude, candlelit dinners and rooms draped in romanticism guarantee a perfect haven for a romantic vacation.

Rabac is situated on the Istria peninsula, a scenic landscape of rolling hills carpeted in grape vines, olive groves and pine trees. The countryside is dotted with fairytale villages unchanged in centuries; the shorefront scored with magical seaside promenades.

A short stroll from the hotel you’ll find the beguiling centre of Rabac, affectionately known as the "Pearl of Kvarner". Inviting bars and restaurants line the picturesque seafront while an impressive range of water sports keeps children of all ages entertained.

Five kilometres inland from Rabac lies the beautiful medieval town of Labin. Here you’ll find quaint streets, Bohemian artists’ studios, historic architecture and bustling pavement cafes. In summer, festivals and concerts bring music and dance to the atmospheric old town.
