The wonderful island of Hvar is considered one of Croatia’s most upmarket destinations and is famous for its wonderfully sunny weather and its beautiful lavender. Hvar Town is the premier resort on the island, and there are plentiful hotel and private accommodation choices in the town. Stari Grad is as lovely as Hvar Town, although perhaps it doesn’t quite get the same visitor numbers, so it’s possibly the place to go to if you want to get away from the popularity of the former. Jelsa is the third main resort on the island; Milna (located very close to Hvar Town) is another option if you’re looking to stay somewhere quiet and relaxing.
There are numerous ferry and catamaran connections from Split to Hvar (plus a less frequent service in summer from and to Dubrovnik), as well as services to the local islands of Brac.

Accommodation on Hvar – Highlights
Hvar Town
Hvar Town has a number of very stylish options, including the four-star Adriana Hvar Spa Hotel and the Riva Hvar Yacht Harbour Hotel. The four-star Hotel Podstine is a little bit further from the centre of Hvar Town, so it is more secluded and has its own private beach area. Similarly, the 4-star Hotel Sirena is slightly outside of town; this hotel has undergone an extensive renovation and is new for 2026!
The four-star Amfora Hvar Grand Beach Resort has an amazing pool area and is located very close to the chic Bonj Les Bains beach club.
Stari Grad
The luxury, 5-star Maslina Resort is a relatively new, wonderfully styled and landscaped hotel resort close to Stari Grad. It is one of the ultimate places to come to for a bit of rest and relaxation – in style – on the island.
Vrboska
If you’re up for a bit of glamping, there’s the Plage Cachee site, which has tents sleeping two people that come with full mod-cons – a kitchen and a private bathroom – and is right on the beach.
