About
Your boutique agency in Istria
L'Adria Estate works with a deliberately small number of properties — so that each one receives genuine attention: honest pricing, complete documentation and presentation we are proud to sign. Whether you are buying or selling, you deal with the same person from the first conversation to the handover of keys.

From valuation to handover
From the first valuation or property search to marketing, negotiations, documentation and handover of keys, we guide buyers, sellers and investors through every step — in Croatian, English, German and Italian.
Istria
Our way of living
Mornings among olive groves, afternoons by the Adriatic, quiet villages, stone houses and long summer evenings with a glass of Malvazija. Life in Istria has its own rhythm... slower, warmer and closely connected to the land, the sea and the people who live here. Whether you are looking for a private retreat, a family home or a property with long-term potential, we help you understand not only the house, but also the lifestyle around it.
Why work with us
Why work with us
- 01
Local knowledge from a team that lives here. We know the villages, the micro-differences along the coast and the details that never appear on listing portals.
- 02
Every property pre-checked. Title, permits, realistic running costs — before you view it, not after you sign.
- 03
Full process support. From first contact to notary signing, for buyers, sellers and investors alike.
- 04
Four languages, honest advice. Including the clarity to tell you when a deal should not be done.
Who you’ll be working with
Adriana Bjelan
Owner & Lead Agent
L’Adria Estate continues a long family connection to the Istrian coast, shaped by tourism, hospitality and real estate. I was born and raised here, and I know that choosing a property in Istria is never only about square metres or distance from the sea. It is about the village, the view, the access, the neighbours and the tradition of the place. With a background in International Relations and Economics, I work with buyers, sellers and investors in Croatian, English, Italian and German. My belief is that every conversation should feel clear, honest and supportive — so clients feel informed, understood and guided through every step of the process.
