Slovene Riviera
Overview
It’s all in the name. Indulge in the opulence and grandeur of the high-end Hotel Kempinski Palace, its brilliant and distinct façade looking out onto the Adriatic coastline of Slovenia. Opened as the height of luxury in 1910, it has recently been completely renovated to bring this glamour into the new century.
181 rooms are indicative of the elegance inherent within the hotel’s walls, each carrying with it a character of old-world charm with the most modern facilities and amenities. Take in the rich views from its various terraces and balconies, the perfect place to settle down for an early morning cappuccino before heading to the breakfast buffet within the gilded walls of the Crystal Hall.
Indeed, the gastronomic options are of the highest quality. The cuisine varies from menu to menu, with the Mediterranean flavours of Restaurant Sophia, so named because of its hosting of famous beauty Sophia Loren, to the fusion of Restaurant Fleur de Sel. Savour the sweet life by sampling French confectionaries and Austrian coffee-house blends of the Forma Viva and Ladies’ Saloon while there are three bars in which you can kick back with a cocktail or spirit of your choice.
No trip to this most lovely location would be complete without a visit to the Kempinski Rose Spa, a veritable paradise of beauty treatments, massages, baths and saunas. The fitness centre means you will be able to stay in shape, using the state-of-the-art equipment as well as the magnificent seawater swimming pool.
→ Find out moreSlovenia’s short stretch of coast, wedged between Italy and Croatia, is something of an undiscovered Adriatic gem. Just 47km (29 miles) of shoreline manages to squeeze in a compact cocktail of its neighbours, such as the charmingly faded Italianate town of Piran, whose architecture betrays its centuries as part of the Republic of Venice, the quaint fishing town of Izola and 19th century resort of Portorož, along with rugged cliffs, salt pans and fishing villages. The emerald waters are shallow and warm, and there are numerous pebbly beaches and bays to discover. After checking in to your hotel enjoy a welcome dinner.
Visit the Soline Salt Pans to see salt produced in a traditional way based on a 700-year-old method that harmonises man and nature. Over the centuries, a unique habitat has formed for halophytic plants and animals and migrating birds.
The old seaport of Piran, a nicely dilapidated port town on the Adriatic, lies at the end of the Piran peninsula. The town has preserved the medieval layout with narrow streets and compact houses, as well as grander buildings dating back to it's golden age as part of the Venetian Republic, all of which rise in steps from the coastal lowland into the hills and give the whole area a typical Mediterranean look. A delicious seafood dinner will finish off this wonderful day.

Goriska Brda Wine Region
Enjoy a privately guided tour of the cellars beneath the Simčič household, a family owned winery in the small village of Vipolže. Run by father-son duo Edi and Aleks, this initially unassuming winery is heralded by many as the finest and most forward thinking in Slovenia with its selection of whites and reds grown on small vineyards around the country. Learning about their work which is reinvigorating wine growing traditions and grapes of pre-Socialist Republic Slovenia while pushing forward into more experimental areas, you'll taste a number of their vintage wines accompanied by local cheese and olive oil.
This beautiful, small village is a living cultural heritage monument. The village looks out onto endless vineyards that cover all of Brda. Once a fortification on the Venetian-Austrian border, the village's roots date back to when it was used as a Roman stronghold. The Church of Saint Martin, the largest church in Brda, is adored with beautiful frescoes and a bell tower that was once part of a fortification tower.

Like Krokar, it lies within a large forest complex that is included in the Natura 2000 network. Snežnik is a large karstic mountain and a mixing zone between the Continental and Mediterranean climates. Evidence of heavy snow loads have caused 'saber trees', bent near the ground on steep slopes. While the mountain peak itself was covered by ice, relic species were maintained with beech forests re-established 8,000 years ago.

Kostanjevica na Krki is Slovenia’s smallest town and sits upon a tiny island in the middle of the Krka River. Today the entire town is protected as a cultural monument of the highest category.
