Family-run since the 1980s · Mukinje village
A family guesthouse ten minutes on foot from Plitvice Lakes National Park — with a Finnish sauna, an outdoor hot tub and a breakfast worth waking for.

Dobrodošli — welcome
Villa Mukinja was built on a simple promise: honest, comfortable accommodation, personally looked after — a short walk from one of the most beautiful places on earth.
Cosy interiors, genuinely comfortable beds, a garden with sun loungers, and a home-made breakfast our guests still write home about. You're not booking a room; you're settling into the village next to the lakes.
Stay with us
Six rooms, three types, eighteen guests at most — never a crowd. Click to explore.


Wellness & spa
A day among the lakes deserves a proper reward — and ours is free for every guest.

Eat & drink
Freshly prepared each morning on request — never from a buffet tray.
It stars basa, the regional dairy specialty, and our own home-made cheese — honest fuel for a day among the waterfalls.
Rooms & breakfast
Golden hour
The waterfalls take your breath away; the terrace gives it back.
Sink into a chair, kick off the hiking boots and let us bring you an ice-cold Aperol Spritz or a proper Gin & Tonic while the evening light drifts over the pines. Prefer wine? A full-bodied Dingač or a crisp Istrian Malvazija — Croatia in a glass.


Little explorers
While you sink into the hot tub, the kids have their own adventure.
Our garden has a children's play park — swings, a slide and room to run — right where you can see them from the terrace. Tired little legs after the lakes? They'll still find one more climb in them here.
Guest stories
“The breakfast alone is worth the stay — and the sauna and hot tub after a day of hiking were heaven.”
Before you ask
A 10-minute walk to Entrance 2 — no parking stress, no shuttle. You can be on the boardwalks before the tour buses arrive.
Breakfast is prepared fresh on request and charged separately — home-made, starring basa and our own cheese. Just tell us the evening before.
Yes. The Finnish sauna and the Sundance Maxxus 880 outdoor hot tub are free for every guest, every stay.
Both — free private parking at the house and fast Wi-Fi throughout.
Very — there's a children's play park in the garden, and our Family Quadruple room sleeps four in a 2+2 layout with a balcony over the garden.
Booking direct always gets you our best available rate, plus a personal welcome from the family that has run this house since the 1980s.
