The history of Rivica is a story of a generational devotion to hospitality and restaurant business. It is a story of passion, hard work, and persistence. At the same time, it is a story of  the consistency of general values and changes that come with each new generation or a new period of time, that are reflected in the plates, in the glasses, and in the smiles of our guests.

The story begins in 1934 with nona Mara and nono Ivo, when they decided to open a bed and breakfast in a small fishing village for elite guests from the former “k.u.k.” (kaiserlich und königlich – Austro – Hungarian Monarchy) and provide them with a hedonistic experience of Kvarner and the Island of Krk, two destinations that they began to uncover and which attracted them with their exotic and untouched nature and climate balance.
