One evening might mean a carefully composed tasting menu, the next dinner cooked over fire by the beach, while lunch can be as simple as fresh pasta overlooking the Adriatic. Add an island restaurant, contemporary seafood, relaxed sharing plates and sunset cocktails, and Pical Resort 5* becomes a culinary journey through Istria, the Mediterranean and far beyond.

But now and then, I like to find an experience that shows me a slightly different side of a destination.

Here, a day can easily begin with coffee by the sea, continue with brunch in the centre and move into an afternoon aperitivo or cocktail.

The beaches become quieter, mornings are made for long walks by the sea, and there is suddenly more time to slow down. At Pical Resort 5* in Poreč, a stay can become less about fitting everything in and more about feeling genuinely restored.
