Far from the bustling streets and life’s everyday routines lies Slavonia. A place where golden fields ripple in the summer wind and mornings carry the scent of dew-soaked meadows. Where birds from the Kopački Rit Nature Park sing relaxing songs, and from hilltop wineries the view of a crimson sunset soothes tired eyes. Flowing through the Pannonian Plain are the Danube, Drava and Sava rivers, reflecting in their waters the vast blue sky. Nestled between the Danube and Drava, the Baranja unfolds, full of fertile vineyards and wetlands. Here, the generosity of nature is mirrored in the warmth and hospitality of its people. With life moving at a gentler rhythm, guests are invited to feel both welcomed and at home.
Found within this pastoral setting is Materra, a luxury hotel whose architectural concept looks like a continuation of nature. The hotel and nature merge seamlessly into one. Vast glass walls dispel the threshold between the exterior and interior, opening the space to the astounding surrounding 17 kilometers of endless fields, providing privacy and true, full-body relaxation. Here, stepping in means stepping out, away from the hustle of busy lives. The healing nature of the outdoors is brought inside. Each room comes with a view, inviting guests to immerse themselves in the present moment, becoming protagonists in Slavonia’s aspiring beauty. Earth tones blend seamlessly into the expanding horizon, turning every sunrise and sunset into an elevating experience.
We embrace the welcoming spirit of Slavonia by greeting each guest with a seasonal tea and refreshing towel scented with essential oils. Our hotel’s interior reflects the curves and tones of the natural world with wooden surfaces and warm colors in the rounded, handcrafted furniture. Our oak parquet flooring, luxury ceramics, linen rugs and curtains create an organic, yet refined atmosphere. From specialty coffee to clean Korean skincare, every detail is thoughtfully designed to revitalize.
In Materra, renewal is about reconnecting with the pace of nature. The ginkgo trees planted in the central atrium at the hotel entrance inspire this connection and a return to natural rhythms. It is as if the trees are gently whispering: Slow down. Breathe. Listen. This quietude is deliberate. Acoustic panels on the walls and ceiling create a space that absorbs sound, letting the body and the spirit rest.
The 1,500-square-meter wellness center lies on the first floor. Each visit makes a synergy of serenity and strength through stress reducing wellness treatments, each one personalized to help you recover your natural rhythm. Fully open to the light, our space blurs the boundary between indoors and outdoors. The three saunas, indoor heated pool, outdoor jacuzzi and relaxation room face wide panes of glass, framing the ever-changing canvas of the fields outside, with seasonal surprises like vibrant poppies and sunflowers.
In our restaurant, gastronomy follows the same principle – from the field to the table – supported by the sustainable supply chain of the Žito Group, which oversees every stage from growing raw ingredients in Slavonian fields and farms to preparing the final dishes. The fertile Slavonian soil provides the gifts that define our cuisine, with ingredients sourced from local farmers as well as our own agricultural and food production within the Žito Group. Guests can savor dishes that carry the story of the land with a modern twist and the interpretation of our experts, as we pair Slavonian specialties with indigenous wines and imaginative cocktails.
Step into the calmer you by stepping into our hotel, where nature flows indoors. Whether arriving for business, a weekend escape, or a rejuvenating retreat, visitors leave Materra feeling renewed. When guests step out, they step back into the everyday recharged with an abiding sense of inner peace.
