In the hustle and bustle of everyday life, we often forget to stop and really live the moments with the people we care about most. Breakfast becomes casual, conversations become superficial, and time together becomes rarer. That’s why a vacation in nature has such a powerful effect – because it brings us back to what family is really about: connection, presence, and memorable moments together.
In nature, there is no rush, no screens, no distractions. Just a space where you can see, hear, and experience each other again. And when that nature is in the heart of Gorski Kotar, in a house that combines luxury and the warmth of home, then a vacation becomes an experience that renews the whole family.
Welcome to Valera Vita Forest House – a place where a vacation in nature becomes a way to reconnect, relax, and feel what it means to share time, not just space.
When you step into the forest, the rhythm changes. Children immediately notice – the air is fresher, the sounds are different, and their gaze is not fixed on the screens, but on the treetops, clouds and water. In this environment, the family becomes a team again.
Without the noise of everyday life, there is space for conversation, play, laughter and those little moments that are easily lost in the city.
Scientific research confirms that spending time in nature reduces stress and stimulates the secretion of serotonin. But what cannot be measured is that feeling of peace that occurs spontaneously – when you all sit outside together, listen to nature and do nothing in particular. That “nothing” becomes the most valuable.
Gorski Kotar is an ideal destination for a nature holiday with the family because it offers a balance between peace and activity .
Children here have space to play and explore, and parents have the opportunity to truly relax. There are no crowds, no rush – just enough time for everything that is easily lost in everyday life.
There are rivers, hiking trails, lakes and forests that beckon to explore. Not far from Valera Vita Forest House are Zeleni vir and Vražji prolaz , Kamačnik canyon and Lokvarka – perfect locations for day trips.
A family vacation is best when everyone has enough space, but also when there is a place that brings everyone together.
Valera Vita Forest House is exactly that kind of vacation home in nature – it combines luxury, comfort, and the warmth of home .
Four bedrooms with king-size beds and en-suite bathrooms provide privacy for each family member, while the large living room, dining room and open-plan kitchen create a sense of community.
The terrace overlooking the forest is ideal for morning coffee, family breakfasts or evening conversations by lantern light.
For relaxation, there is a private wellness area – an indoor infinity pool, jacuzzi and two saunas . A spacious outdoor area with a decorative lake invites you to play, explore or simply enjoy the fresh air.
At Valera Vita Forest House, days begin without haste and evenings end with laughter. Watching a movie together in the home theater, playing billiards or table tennis, preparing food together in the kitchen – all of this will restore your sense of connection and closeness.
There are no schedules or obligations here. Just a space where the family can be who they are. And it is in this simplicity, away from the noise and everyday obligations, that the most important thing happens: the feeling of belonging to each other .
Such a vacation literally nourishes the family – with time, laughter, and those unplanned moments that bond you more strongly than anything else.
When you return to your everyday life, you will notice that everything is somehow easier: you have more understanding, less tension, more patience.
Because when you step away from everything together, you remind yourself who you are to each other and how little it actually takes for everything to make sense again .
If you and your family need a vacation in nature and are looking for a space where everyone will feel relaxed, safe and connected – book your stay at Valera Vita Forest House !
