Rovinj, a stone city on the Istrian peninsula

Rovinj is one of the most famous tourist and cultural centers of western Istria, with a real estate offer ranging from stone houses in the old core to apartments and villas by the sea.

Rovinj is one of the most recognizable cities of the Croatian Mediterranean, with its historical center huddled on the peninsula and the Church of Saint Euphemia dominating the skyline. The city extends to surrounding settlements and the coastline, and the real estate offer ranges from stone houses in the old core to apartments, villas, and holiday properties by the sea.

According to the 2021 census, about 13,300 residents live in Rovinj. The city is one of the leading tourist destinations in Istria, well-connected by the Istrian Y motorway to the rest of the peninsula and the hinterland. Developed tourism, a marina, and preserved nature make it attractive for both permanent living and investment.

The real estate offer in Rovinj ranges from apartments in the wider center and stone houses in the core to luxury villas by the sea, building plots, and commercial spaces. Prices depend on proximity to the sea, location, and the age of the property, and the range is easiest to compare directly in the search engine above.
