Pool with a view, sauna and hot tub in a private garden
About this hotel
Juras Country House puts the pool front and centre: it opens onto the surrounding hills rather than a fence, and the sun terrace next to it is built for full days outside rather than an hour before dinner. The sauna and hot tub sit close enough to use straight after a swim, and the garden gives small children room to run that a coastal apartment rarely offers. Inside, the villa spreads across two bedrooms and three bathrooms, useful for two families sharing rather than squeezing into one bathroom queue. The Spomenik NOB memorial is just over a mile away, and Zagreb's cathedral is a manageable 21 miles for a day out.

Our take
Juras Country House is a two-bedroom, three-bathroom villa outside Sveti Ivan Zelina, about 1.2 miles from the Spomenik NOB memorial, with a view-facing swimming pool, a sauna and a hot tub set around a private garden. Three bathrooms for two bedrooms is generous, which helps two couples or a family share without queues. Its 9.8 score comes from 9 reviews, so it is promising rather than proven. I would book it for a private wellness weekend.
- ✓Take the pool at midday when the view is at its clearest, before the afternoon haze sets in.
- ✓Split bathroom use in advance if two families are sharing, three is generous but still worth planning.
- ✓Walk to the Spomenik NOB memorial in the cooler morning hours rather than midday.

Why guests love itThe pool at Juras Country House is the reason to book it: it looks out over open hills instead of a neighbour's fence, which changes the whole feel of a swim. Having three bathrooms for two bedrooms means the usual holiday-home bottleneck never happens, a small detail that matters more than it sounds once a group is actually staying there. It rewards groups who want space to spread out rather than a compact couple's retreat.
