Luxury camping with beautiful swimming pool and exceptionally nice sanitary facilities!
Very good8

ACSI discount in low season (€ 23.00 per night) Beautiful park. In 2024, it received the title of the most beautiful campsite in Croatia. Tourist pitches on nice gravel so it’s not dusty and you don’t have mud in case of rain. In some places, it is difficult to keep level. There is a road along the campsite that is audible. Exceptionally nice and clean sanitary facilities. The swimming pool is stunning. Free wifi. The restaurant can be described as chic with normal prices for a good restaurant. Our children and grandchildren stayed in a nice little house. There is a nice sandy beach a bike ride away from camping Lanterna, where it was no longer busy on September 22.

Campsites are catastrophic

Markus
The campsite we found or were assigned was simply a disaster. All the sites were covered with very large gravel stones. You had to worry about damaging the tires of the camper. Walking was very difficult and setting up a table/chairs was out of the question. The campsites were located in the lowest corner of the site, right next to a road. Unfortunately, nothing could be seen of the sea. The camping seems to specialize only in mobile homes, which were nicely laid out. After a brief discussion, we immediately left the campsite. Unfortunately, we did not get back a cent of our already paid price. We can only advise against visiting or booking these campsites. One star here is already too much!!!

Overall a nice place with a great kids' pool, don't expect a swimming pool! The budget spots and also some of the premium spots are often tilted, leveling wedges! The washrooms are new and modern, clean, mostly warm water. The mini market offers only the bare essentials. The budget spots are assigned without any specific layout, at the reception it was said 'if you find something...'- we had made a reservation, this is not what you would expect at this price range. Somewhat cramped for maneuvering. The children’s program is good. Construction is still ongoing above the site. The beach is good but requires a shuttle; it's a 20-minute walk or a 5-minute bike ride. Everything is quite nice, but not 5 stars.

We were at the site for three weeks and are totally thrilled. The pool with the pirate ship is simply genius for kids, there is also an area with deep water. The sanitary facilities are super modern and well-maintained. There is cleaning staff on-site all day long. Everything you need is available. A shuttle bus goes to the beach, which is about 1 km away. The beach is beautifully shaded and perfect for swimming. The size of the site is optimal, so the kids can also jump around. The animation for the little ones is well received but not intrusive or disturbing. We will come back!

Doesn't quite live up to its promises
Pleasant6
A.
The spots have gravel, size is okay. Large pool for kids is nice. Cleanliness was average. Since apparently many apartments for tourists are being built throughout the area, there is a construction site feel all around. The harbor is also currently being remodeled, accordingly the beach is reachable by shuttle. The restaurant falls under the category of okay. 5 stars and the price are not justifiable for me.

We spontaneously landed at the site and were greeted with the friendliness that was by far the best during our entire trip to Croatia. The site impresses with the main pool featuring a pirate ship for the children and the always very clean sanitary facilities (not even spider webs in the corners). There is a free beach shuttle every 2 hours. There are rolls and a minimal assortment of groceries available at the site. We did not test the restaurant, but it was always well attended, which speaks for itself. The pitches are gravelled, all have electricity and water. Slight unevenness must be compensated with ramps. One star deducted because there is no central waste water disposal. So it means carrying buckets. However, we would still come back anytime - thanks to the team at the campsite!

A place with very good amenities for its small size. Great for families, the kids' pool is one of the best in Istria. The clientele is a bit fancier and more elitist. The term boutique describes it quite well.

More info about Santa Marina Boutique Camping
Located in the north-west of Croatia, Santa Marina Boutique Camping impresses with its peaceful and natural location, its proximity to the Adriatic Sea and its modern design concept. Nature lovers as well as those seeking peace and quiet and families who want to spend their days off with their children will choose one of the pitches or mobile homes on site.
4.5-star campsite with a pool area and style
The family-friendly campsite is located just outside the small village of Tar-Vabriga in Istria. There is a selection of restaurants and shops in the immediate vicinity. After a short walk of around 800 m, holidaymakers can reach a small bay with a natural and seemingly untouched stretch of beach. The small town of Novigrad is just 10 kilometres north of Santa Marina Boutique Camping. The dog-friendly campsite itself extends over around 4.5 hectares and is characterised by its natural design. The campsite is idyllically surrounded by woodland and the site is dotted with conifers that provide natural shade. 81 pitches, some of which are premium pitches measuring up to 120 square metres, extend across the site. Stylish and modern washrooms and sanitary buildings, including children's toilets and shallow washbasins, are available to camping holidaymakers on site. Water also characterises the bathing area, which consists of a main pool and a children's pool with a pirate playground. The regular children's entertainment programme in the mini club also promises fun and games. Holidaymakers will find everything they need for self-catering in the supermarket, which stocks both basic foodstuffs and delicatessen products such as truffles. Nothing stands in the way of a cosy dinner or a hearty breakfast in the Da Giusto restaurant.
Discovery tours on land and on the water
Holidaymakers can hire bicycles or e-bikes at Santa Marina Boutique Camping and explore the immediate surroundings in a climate-friendly and active way. Those interested in culture should not miss out on a trip to the nearby town of Novigrad. Highlights include the historical buildings, including the parish church of St Pelagius and the ancient city walls. The Lapidarium, a small museum with stone monuments, is also located in the town. There is a large number of moorings in Novigrad. It is possible to go out into the Adriatic with a skipper or even hire a motorboat or sailing boat yourself and spend a great day at sea. Another interesting excursion destination, which holidaymakers can best reach by car or hire car, is Rovinj, 50 km to the south.
