Welcome to House Amalia

House Amalia, located in the green heart of Croatia, in the quiet town of Sunger, will provide you with everything you need for your vacation. House Amalia is an autochthonous Goran mountain house, over 150 years old, renovated in 2022. During the renovation, great care was taken to preserve the old Goran style of construction and decoration, which in combination with modern technologies provides everything for your perfect vacation.

For all those looking for an active holiday, there are numerous natural, cultural and sports attractions of the irresistible Gorski Kotar area near the Amalia house, which you must explore. After an active day, the Amalia house will soothe you with its warmth. Welcome!

Exterior

The view of the beautiful Bitoraj hill is the first thing you will see when you wake up in the morning and go out to the terrace with a cup of your favorite morning drink. A wooden terrace, a wooden gazebo with a fireplace and an old barn that is still in its original form are in perfect harmony with the house and connect the past and the present. A large yard with children's swings during the day and a space where you can enjoy a campfire until late at night are experiences that you and your little ones will surely remember forever. In winter, this area becomes a white oasis. Children can enjoy sledding down the small hill and various other games in the snow.

Interior

Upon entering the house, you will get the impression of a true harmony of classic and modern style. Details such as the partially exposed old stone wall and 150 years old ceiling beams are interwoven with modern elements. The rooms and the completely wooden construction on the upper floor add to the warmth that is spread by two large wood-burning fireplaces on the ground floor. The local carpenters used exclusively local wood, which makes every detail absolutely unique, starting from the internal stairs on the ground floor to the magical atmosphere of the wooden attic. Gazing at the snow blizzard while enjoying the warm atmosphere from the fireplace is a special experience, as is the entire House of Amalia.

Allow yourself to experience the irresistible Gorski Kotar

A place for your peace and perfect rest

Gorski kotar is located between the Mediterranean, the Pannonian interior and the Alpine belt. Winters are mostly harsh and long, which favors enjoying the snowy idyll and winter sports. Spring knocks on the door later in Gorski kotar, but that's why the wonderful awakening of nature from its long winter sleep is a unique sight that cannot be missed. Summers with pleasant daytime temperatures and cooler nights ensure quality rest and protection from the great summer heat. The autumn season, along with the harvesting of fruits, enchants with an array of colors that unreservedly inspire. Are you looking for an almost meditative peace or an active holiday, an unforgettable adventure or pleasant winter evenings by the fireplace?

"We chose Holiday Home Amalia for the second time, and once again, it felt like stepping into a fairytale. The house is beautifully designed in an old stone-and-wood style, with every detail carefully selected to create a warm, authentic atmosphere. Surrounded by breathtaking nature, it’s a place where you can truly relax and disconnect from the world. What made our stay even more special was the owner – always kind, welcoming, and attentive, even to the most demanding guests. It’s rare to find such genuine hospitality. We can’t wait to come back again!"
