island retreat in Croatia



Caroline and husband Ernst have apparently fallen in 
love with the area after spending a month cruising the 
country’s coastline last summer

8 MAY 2002
Princess Caroline of Monaco and her husband Prince Ernst of 
Hanover are about to shell out on a new island retreat in 
Croatia. The couple apparently plan to buy property on one of 
the Brijuni Islands, a national park and former holiday 
getaway of Yugoslavia’s former ruler Marshal Tito.

Once popular with such Hollywood luminaries as Elizabeth 
Taylor and Richard Burton, Croatia returned to favour with the 
jet set following the end of the Balkans war. Caroline and 
Ernst seem to have fallen in love with the area after spending 
a month cruising the country’s coastline last summer.

Ivana Trump’s former husband Riccardo Mazzucchelli has already 
converted one of the islands into an international resort and 
the president of Istria, the county in which the pair are set 
to invest, was ebullient about the effects of the royal 
decision. “The islands are soon to become one of the world’s 
most famous destinations. A concrete move by Princess Caroline 
can be expected within the month,” he says.
