A little further from Cozy Koza. Maslina is in the new neighborhood, but its charming terrace is ideal for a pleasant al fresco meal. Here, flavors are mainly Italian with delicious pizzas, but menu is rather diversified. Be aware that service could sometimes be slow.

Do you want to go all out? The only Michelin-starred restaurant in Croatia is less than 5 minutes away from Cozy Koza on foot (Montalbano 75). With its contemporary and creative cuisine, Monte will delight the most demanding gourmets. Delicious, but obviously the bill is up to the exceptional quality of the food.

For a getaway off the beaten track, enjoy a lunch in the hinterland at the incredible Konoba Toklarija in Sovinjsko Polje (reservation required. If you are here during fall or winter, ask for the table next to the fireplace!) which will serve you a gourmet – if rather expensive – meal. Once you are full, go visit Hum that, with its twenty or so inhabitants, claims to be the smallest village in the world.

Drinks & Nightlife

Do you want a romantic cocktail or a glass of champagne to end the day in style? Valentino (Santa Croce 28) has an exceptional setting where you can hear the sound of the waves crashing on the rocks from your table. It is also very touristy. Love it or hate it!

Sightseeing

Note that the city is also home to a very active artistic community. If you want to see the work of these artists or buy a piece of art, stroll through the streets of the old city and take a look at the many galleries. Grisia is certainly the street with the largest number of art shops.

Shopping

Before becoming a major tourist destination on the Croatian coast, Rovinj has always had a history closely related to fishing. This activity remains a significant economic driver for the city. You don’t need to walk more than 2 minutes from Cozy Koza to reach the fish market that perpetuates the tradition. Open until about 11 a.m., it offers a wide selection of fish and seafood. Make sure to ask for wild fish caught in Istria. Just across the street, you will find the vegetable market (with a delicious local olive oil!), as well as a butcher shop and various other small shops (selling excellent fresh eggs).

Cycling is the best way to go for a dip just a few kilometers from the center. You will find many rental companies in town. Bike Planet (Trg na Lokvi 3), ideally located next to the entrance of the Carera, seems to be a popular choice.

Car remains the best way to travel the region. International rental companies, such as Sixt (Hermana Dalmatina 8), or national ones, like Oryx (Šetalište Vijeća Europe bb), have branches in Rovinj. If you want to leave Croatia with your car, do not forget to mention it to your rental company at the time of booking or pick-up. A fee may apply. If you intend to use Slovenian highways, we remind you that a vignette (toll sticker) is to be affixed to the windshield of your vehicle. Ask your rental company if your car already has one.
