The town of Izola was once an island but now welcomes tourists from its picturesque location on the Mediterranean coast. Its earliest inhabitants were recorded in the first century, A.D. and later accessed the island via a bridge from the mainland. Once surrounded by a series of fortifying walls, these were razed in the 1800s and the rubble used to fill the sea and create land where there was once none. Today, Izola hotels have been created to house the numerous tourists who visit each year. Many of the discount Izola hotels offer some fantastic rates available only through EasyToBook.com.
