Can anybody recommend accomodations in or around Pula for 2 nights? We are 2 Canadian families travelling together with 4 adults and 6 kids. We want to stay in Pula since we are taking the ferry to Venice from Pula in mid July. We are having trouble finding accomodations that will allow a 2 day stay. Can anybody help?? Thank you!

Hi, I’m flying in to Pula for one week – late May. I’m planning to hire a mountainbike and travel around for my week – a night here a night there – that sort of thing. Most hire centres appear to be Hotels (which I may not be staying at). My question.
Can I hire a mountain bike from (from an independent agent) Palu – for the week?
Or alternatively, does anyone have experience of non residential bike hire from a local resort. Appreciate any advice on this or on my general itinerary. Beach, booze and windsurfing. Cheers

We will be visiting Croatia in a couple of weeks. We would like to drive to Pula for a one day visit. I have two questions. Where is the best place to park the car for the day? And, is it possible to find a local guide for the day?

Thank you for your assistance.

Hello,
My partner and I are travelling to Split and arrive there on the 12th of July via a cruise. We disembark the boat there and would then like to travel to Venice.
Can anyone tell me what the best way to travel to Venice would be from Split?
The train is an option but from what I can tell it will be a 16hr overnight trip.
Could I catch a ferry from Split to Venice or do I have to go via Pula?
How would I travel from Split to Pula and how long would this take?
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Many Thanks,
Jo

Does anybody know the fastest and cheapest way to get into Pula itself from the airport, more particularly the Punta Verudela Resort? Is there a shuttle bus or some kind of public transport? Also, do the majority of people accept euros or is it worth getting Croatian currency! I go next week (Oct 2008).
Thanks for any help

Hello, heading to Istria soon but have not finalized plans yet. Will have 4-5 nights the last of which will be in Pula, but am undecided as to where is best to stay the rest of the time (Pula, Rovinj, Porec, etc)? Def want to explore a bit but will not have a car there so will need to take buses.

Also, a little confused about buses from Rijeka to Pula or Rovinj - anyone know how late they run? I will arrive at 5PM and not sure if I need to stay in Rijeka area for the 1st night.

Thanks in advance.

Is this possible? If so is it a regular service? Thanks

Hi

If so can anyone give me an idea of the length of time and cost?

Thanks.

Hi! I was wondering if anyone might know about some resources for renting an apartment (studio or one-bedroom) long-term in Pula. I know there are oodles of sites aimed at vacation rentals, but I hope to move there in the coming months and would like to "live like a local" and "rent like a local" :) If anyone has any suggestions, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks so much! Peace!

Hi I want to fly into Pula and then go on to Split, any advice on the best way to get there would be really appreciated!!

Hi
we're planning to go to Croatia and now are choosing places to go..
we'd like to find the cheapest accomodation (smth like hostels for €15-20 per night for 1 person) and have found a place in Pula, the area called Veruda - the southern art of the city
but i'm not sure about the quality of the beaches there - i've only seen yachts and big rocks on fotos.. are there any other cheap places in that city? or maybe the Veruda beach is okay and only looks so rocky? :)

thanks!

Hi everyone,
me and my boyfriend are planning our trip to Pula, but since we have no car we need to find something with good location. Don't mind a bit of a walk (up to 1 km or so), but would like something close to some beaches and also with easy acces to Pula city centre.
Am I asking too much? :)

Or does anyone have a link to a local company that could provide transport

Hi,

Just booked a cheap flight over to Pula for late in March. Just a few general questions any help appreciated.

· Cheap hotels are they easy to come by this time of year? Someone near the sea would be good
· Bars not after a mad one but any recomadations for a local bar that will be busy and any English or Irish bars?
· How much does food and beer cost over there? I guess its Euros?

Thanks

My wife and I are arriving at Pula Airport on March 31. We are travelling on to Rovinj where we are staying for five nights. Any information on options and costs of getting from Pula Airport to Rovinj. Thanks a lot

My sister and I are trying to get to Croatia as part of a summer vacation. We are planning to fly into Pula, but we would like to take a train or bus out, preferrably to a destination in Italy, or the closest nearby city that we could find connecting low-cost flights, but we don't know much about land travel (prices, times, difficulty) in Croatia and would like to know if anyone can help. We also would like to know about the quality of the beaches in Istria, and if there is a place not too far from Pula that we should stay to find clear water and bathing-type beaches. I have heard that Medulin might be a good option. Or are there any other cities in Croatia with good beaches that are easy to get to Italy from? Thanks!

thinking of going to Hotel BRIONI in Pula. Does any one know this place. Is it safe and is there plenty to keep you busy. Going for a getaway for 5 days in April. How is the weather at that time of the year? Any help would be appreciated. THank you inadvance:)

Hi, Iam travelling to Pula at the end of May/beginning of June and need to book a hotel to stay at; any recommedations/suggestions would be good.

Any info on them would be greatly appreciated, especially the what the area around them is like such as near to shops/resturants etc.
Thanks for your help in advance!

hello, we are two people looking to travel around istria but were wondering what the best way to get around is - hire a car or public transport?

we would like to do the usual coastal towns and if there is time, go slightly inland to the little towns, wine trails etc.

That said, we only ahve 3 nights there so it's slightly ambitious!

I've booked flights to Pula for a couple of nights in January - will there be enough to do for two days, at that time of year? We're planning on visiting the amphitheatre (obviously) but what's the weather usually like? Is it likely to snow?!

Also, has anyone got a recommendation for a nice, not too pricey hotel, preferably in the city centre. We don't mind walking everywhere but it's best if the hotel is fairly central!

Also, would it be worth taking a day trip to Rovinj? What's the public transport like & would it take long? We spent a couple of family holidays in Rovinj back in the 70s & I'd love to see what it's like now.
