Chocolate village by the river

WELCOME TO A PARADISE FOR TRUE CHOCOHOLICS!
Forget about weight loss, you will very much enjoy sinning. You are about to enjoy an experience you will remember for the rest of your life.
Chocolate Village by the river is a luxurious glamping resort located in the picturesque environment of a natural park by a river, where everything revolves around chocolate: chocolate breakfasts, chocolate workshops, chocolate cosmetics and chocolate massages – and this is only the start of the chocolate surprises.

The resort is located in the beautiful surroundings of the Natura 2000 nature park right by the river. The village is also located on the famous international Drava cycling route.
It is 5 km from the Pohorje Cable Car, the largest Slovenian ski resort, the summer bike park and hiking grounds. It is 5 km from Maribor city centre.
It is 5 km from the largest shopping centre in this part of Slovenia.
Have we already mentioned that it is located only 5 steps away from a chocolate manufactory?

FORASTERO, CRIOLLO, AND TRINITARIO LODGES
Do you like to hide in the treetops, or do you prefer rolling hills by the river? Do you prefer Forastero, Criollo or Trinitario?
Did you know that there are only three types of cocoa?
FORASTERO is the most popular type of cocoa.
Forastero lodges are spacious, have 2+2 beds over two floors with large panoramic windows. They are equipped with a kitchen, living room, bathroom, terrace, heating and cooling.
CRIOLLO is the rarest and most sensitive as well as the most prestigious type of cocoa.
Criollo lodges are located in the treetops, and have unique beds and spectacular panoramic views. They are equipped
with a kitchenette, a living/sleeping area, a bathroom, heating and cooling, and
a gorgeous terrace.
TRINITARIO is a hybrid type of cocoa with the best of both worlds.
Trinitario lodges are placed directly by the natural swimming pond and have the most spectacular view of the river. Like Forastero lodges, Trinitario lodges are spacious, have 2+2 beds over two floors with large panoramic windows. They are equipped with a kitchen, living room, bathroom, terrace, and heating and cooling. They also include a private
hot tub and a fireplace.

FOUR SEASONS BY THE RIVER
The spring and summer are wonderful, but chocolate tastes even better on fairy-tale winter evenings while listening to the crackling of the fire or the autumn dance of the rain drops.
Fall in love with your partner all over again with chocolate. There is nothing better than a friend, unless it is a friend with chocolate.
The Chocolate Village is open year-round.
