Retropatija brings us back to the 60`s, 70`s and 80`s. Contrary to 'Opatija-Imperial City', the idea is to remind our guests of the laid-back atmosphere of the period. In the park behind Villa Angiolina one can see oldtimer cars while the music is playing from their radios; the dancers dressed in suits of that time are dancing, drinking popular drinks of that day, eating toast and chewing first bubble gums. In front of Villa Amalia is a beach party, guys with guitars and pretty girl in bikinis. The main event is Ivo Robic`s concert on the terrace of Kvarner Hotel, as indeed once was. The biggest disco ball is set on the Open Air Theatre as a symbol of that time in Opatija. The party is going to last throughout the night and finish with the greatest hit of the band performing the next day - Kool & The Gang.

In the middle of Bonilla’s , Stanić’ and Aleksijević ‘ music emerges an entirely new experience of jazz - traditional American and " Latin jazz " tradition perfectly matches Mediterranean and Balkan tradition , creating a new genre , at the same time sophisticated and passionate , somehow expected, but still different.
The synergy of Bonilla , Stanić and Aleksijević gives us the best of their diversity , showing that a superb jazz music , despite of being essentially complicated , could be also very smooth and understandable to everyone.
