Great hotel with a lovely view
Pros:

Staff really attentive and friendly.
Views incredible.
Breakfast was delicious!
Hotel really nice and clean

Cons:

Whilst the main parts of the hotel are modern, fresh and neutral looking, our bedroom (classic double) was dated, dark and stuffy.
Our clothes smelt of damp when they dried because there was minimal ventilation.
Not a massive deal but felt like it let the hotel down.
Not sure what the nicer rooms look like but the classic double was already expensive so we didn’t want to pay anymore for an upgrade.
The walk to the main town is on a lovely beach path, but it is a good 20 mins. So wish it was slightly closer to the main town.

10/10 - 5 Days - Amazing Property!
Pros:

One of my favorite stays in Hvar. The walk into town is absolutely stunning, and the beachfront swimming area is world-class. The staff was incredibly friendly, and I loved the relaxed boutique vibe of the hotel.
We stayed in the main building with a sea-view room, which I highly recommend. Lunch at the restaurant was delicious—definitely order the pesto pasta. And the smashburger down by the beach was phenomenal.
We stayed for five nights and thought it was the perfect amount of time. The location is hard to beat: close to all the beach clubs, restaurants, and fun of Hvar, but just far enough outside of town to feel peaceful and relaxed.
I’d easily consider this one of the best places to stay in Hvar. 10/10. Can’t wait to come back.

Cons:

They need Nespresso Makers in the room!

It was fine. Just fine. Did the job.
Pros:

The reception area and outdoor area were beautiful. Common areas were clean and pretty. Great breakfast for the price and lovely view while eating breakfast. Pool was small, but beautiful and we were in the Sea anyways. It WAS walking distance to the main nightlife, but about 25 minutes.

Cons:

The bathroom was so so small. We played Tetris brushing our teeth. And just....old. There were no lights in the room, super dark. For the price, the bedroom/bathroom were not up to my expectation and for that reason I would not go back to this hotel. Because the rooms were small, the 6 of us (2 per room) were chatting in the main lobby o their chairs and we were yelled at at 11pm by the man receptionist. Told us it was 11pm and we had to go to bed. We are 40 years old.

Nice hotel but not value for money.
Pros:

Great breakfast, lots of choice and a nice, easy walk into Hvar town. Lovely beach, lots of sunbeds and a great choice in the bar.

Cons:

The bar and restaurant are extremely expensive. For an expensive hotel anyway, the cost is prohibitive.

Beautiful location, but the poor room maintenance and practically unusable Wi-Fi were very disappointing for a 4-star ho
Pros:

The location is beautiful, right by the sea, and the outdoor areas are probably the highlight of the hotel. We really enjoyed having direct access to the water and the relaxing setting. The staff were also helpful when we complained about our first room and moved us to another one.

Cons:

The rooms and facilities were very disappointing for a hotel in this category. We booked two rooms of exactly the same category, yet one was considerably smaller than the other. In the smaller room, the air-conditioning unit was visibly dusty and dirty, did not work properly, and the bathroom had a very unpleasant smell.

The hotel moved us to another room, which we appreciated, but unfortunately that room also had maintenance issues. Several lights did not work and the bathroom extractor fan was broken, meaning there was practically no ventilation and smells would linger unless we opened the balcony door.

The Wi-Fi was also extremely poor and practically unusable throughout the property. Considering Wi-Fi is advertised as an amenity, this was particularly frustrating.

Overall, the rooms seem to need significantly better maintenance. Having problems with cleanliness, air conditioning, ventilation, lighting and Wi-Fi across multiple rooms is simply not what we expected from a 4-star hotel.

Great location and quiet but some of the hotel need updating
Pros:

Location was great good 20 minutes walk into Hvar
a few steps so not great for people with low mobility

Cons:

No cereal at breakfast and fruit limited
Lounge chairs need updated a bit old and in need of repair one actually broke on a lady whilst she was on it and no member of management came to ask if she was ok even though bar staff reported it she even had to dispose of the broken one and fetch herself another

Incredible stay at boutique hotel!
Pros:

The property was stunning! We loved using the pool and sitting by the water during the day. They also have a small spa which was nice to take advantage of. The room itself was beautiful. The staff was exceptional - when I left a dress behind, they had it brought over to our next location immediately. Would absolutely stay here again!

Cons:

Would be nice to have more umbrellas by the water.

High quality hotel with all the amenities
Pros:

Views, breakfast, service, swimming areas. The location is a little out of the centre which is nice because it is away from the crowds but 15 min walk or 20 Euro taxi to the centre.

Cons:

Food and drink quite expensive but I suppose that's just Hvar. Small pool with only 4 sunbeds

Pros:

Localização mesmo em cima da água é fenomenal. E a cerca de 25min da cidade a pe, num passeio sempre junto à água.
Quartos com boa área.

Cons:

O pequeno almoço é mau - pouca variedade, fruta passada, não havia reposição. Muito fraco
Decoração a precisar de ser actualizada/quartos melhorados.
