The apartments are already used for tourist rentals and are equipped for this purpose. This existing rental operation offers a valuable starting point for a new owner looking to continue an established hospitality business rather than develop a rental property entirely from scratch. The property's proximity to the sea, multiple accommodation units and outdoor amenities make it particularly appealing to buyers searching for an apartment house for sale in Istria with income-generating potential.
A sea view adds to the appeal of the property, while the spacious 1,000 m² plot provides room for outdoor relaxation and guest activities.

These facilities create an inviting environment for holidaymakers, allowing guests to enjoy the Mediterranean lifestyle both by the sea and within the privacy of the property.
Parking is available for several vehicles in the outdoor parking area and garage, an important practical advantage for a multi-unit holiday rental property. The building is equipped with oil-fired central heating and inverter air-conditioning units throughout, supporting comfortable use in different seasons.
