Where Herzegovina becomes a story and the scent of nature replaces the noise of the city, a unique project is taking shape — Glamping Oasis Dračevo, the first of its kind in Bosnia and Herzegovina and the wider region.

Located in the village of Dračevo, near Trebinje, this one-of-a-kind destination will soon welcome guests looking for more than just a typical getaway. Nestled in the heart of Popovo Polje — one of the most fertile and beautiful regions in southern Europe, traversed by the historic Trebišnjica River — the oasis blends unspoiled nature with a vision of sustainable, authentic tourism.

This is not just a tourist project, but a shared vision brought to life by local people. Behind the entire initiative is Aurora Plus, a family-owned company from Teslić, working in collaboration with 19 other local companies and individuals from across Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, and Croatia. Together, they have united their expertise, resources, and passion for nature and this region.

The oasis stretches across three thoughtfully designed zones, offering something for everyone:

The first zone, covering 3,000 square meters, includes 13 glamping domes, each 28 square meters in size and designed as cozy mini-apartments. Each dome features a private bathroom, sleeping and dining areas, and a private terrace. Perfect for families, couples, groups, and digital nomads, the area also includes a safe children’s playground, an open-air swimming pool, an outdoor restaurant space, and a communal firepit for evenings under the stars.

Glamping Oasis Dračevo uses pure spring water sourced from a nearby "estavelle" located 40 meters underground. The dome foundations are hand-built using authentic Herzegovinian stone, with wooden beams brought in from other parts of Bosnia and traditionally bound using ancient techniques known as klamfe. Every element of the construction symbolizes a deep connection between the diverse regions of the country.

The second zone, also covering 3,000 square meters and directly connected to the first, is a wellness and relaxation haven. It includes nine additional glamping domes and a modern wellness center with an indoor pool, Finnish sauna, jacuzzi, massage tables, and both hot and cold showers.

What sets this area apart are the exclusive therapeutic treatments — including sessions in a hyperbaric chamber and an apitherapy room equipped with seven beehives. These therapies aim to improve respiratory health, accelerate physical recovery, and strengthen the immune system.

This zone is also home to the glamping oasis’s signature residents — turtles — and visitors will have a chance to observe wild horses that often roam the pastures surrounding the site, adding to the natural charm of the experience.

The third zone, located around 1,500 meters from the first two and also spanning approximately 3,000 square meters, offers a completely different rhythm. It features recreational facilities such as paintball, mini football, volleyball, archery, axe throwing, and a multifunctional obstacle course for children.

The entire complex will be surrounded by walking trails with benches, a running track, and several outdoor gyms — perfect for those who like to stay active even while on vacation.
