Slovenia is a small and compact country. Its area is 20,000 square kilometers, even smaller than the state of Israel, and since it is elliptical rather than narrow and long like our country, there is no need for long drives. You can stay in its center and reach anywhere within an hour at most. Its population is only about two million inhabitants.
Despite its small size, it is a very diverse country: caves, beaches, lakes, natural springs, snowy mountains, ancient towns, picturesque villages, castles, casinos - you will find everything in it. Thanks to its forests, which cover about half of its area, Slovenia is considered one of the green countries in the world.
The roads in Slovenia are good and driving in it is convenient.

A large spa resort in eastern Slovenia, about an hour's drive from Ljubljana, the capital of Slovenia. About a 40-minute drive from the capital of Croatia, Zagreb.
The resort has three hotels (3 and 4 stars), vacation apartments, and a camping site.
