Villa Mateljan - Apartman 6
Beautiful place, beautiful view of the bay, very nice and communicative host. The water in the bay is very clean and clear, it's a good idea to bring a swimming mask, under the water surface you will encounter a lot of fish. A beach made of small pebbles is clean and well-maintained. The tap water is not drinkable (due to the salty taste), but hosts easily provide good water. We were with a small dog, which was no problem in the hosts building. However, you should know that there are signs at the entrance to the beach that prohibit dogs, but with reasonable care, no one pays attention to them, so it's not a problem either. Getting to the bay can be quite difficult for not very good drivers, the roads to Hvar are winding, sloping and often unsecured. However, it will be a great adventure for people who like to drive. In summary: I would definitely recommend this place and the host, choosing an apartment here you will get beautiful views, silence and unforgettable experience.

Luma Hvar | Beachfront First Row Villa
This is a beautiful, modern and well furnished and equipped house with the most stunning view.! 7 of us stayed in the house and had the most relaxing holiday, spending most of our time lounging on the terrace, dipping into the clear waters of the Adriatic and generally enjoying the beautiful surroundings. The small village has several beach coves and is perfectly peaceful. A word of warning …….we visited late May/early June and neither of the restaurants or the shop were open. The village is not in a bus route, so a car would be a good idea if you are visiting early or late in the season. Elisha was a fantastic host who went out of her way to make our stay enjoyable, arranging taxis and even allowing a late check out which was much appreciated. I would highly recommend this property.

Hvar Apartment with Glorious Sea Views
Great place! A little bit of a walk to town but worth the veranda and the view and swimming spots near by!

Ap2 Iris
we were very satisfied, Iris and Iris's family were all very friendly and accommodating. the place is very close to the beach. It was clean. Quiet too. Balcony view of the sea and sun ☀️ all day long. The apartment has everything you need to live. We had better internet than at home. Parking in front of the house, priceless! we will be happy to come back, thank you dear Iris for everything. your Jaca and Kosta

Deliciosa - Large modern apartment
Maya, her son, and father are amazing!!! Very friendly and accommodating. We spent the most time here during our 2 week Euro trip. Fantastic views from the balcony and a great place to relax with lounge chairs and a table to eat at. Right on the water with a great walk down to the shore where you can jump right into the sea! Space was modern, clean, and comfortable. The bathroom was SO nice. By far the nicest bathroom of anywhere we stayed. Maya's father took us out on his boat with his beagle. It was amazing. He knew the best spots, shared cool information/stories. It was a very authentic/non touristy experience. Maya let us borrow snorkel gear and that was beyond awesome because we snorkeled in the sea by the house but also on our boat trip which was truly special. She also provided homemade olive oil which was divine. WONDERFUL experience and stay.

Old Town Accommodation - Studio - by the beach
I loved our stay here. The view of the beautiful ocean and the hospitality was unmatched. Petris made us feel right at home and went above and beyond to help us enjoy our stay.

A & P relax and comfort zone
Pjer’s place absolutely exceeded all expectations – it deserves more than 5 stars! We adored our stay. The garden was a lifesaver as the weather warmed up, offering the perfect shady oasis to relax in. The location is ideal: wonderfully peaceful and private, yet just steps away from everything. The nearest beach is less than a 3-minute walk, and the closest grocery store is equally convenient. Everything else you’d need is within easy walking distance. We highly recommend this gem to respectful guests looking for a serene getaway. You will absolutely LOVE it here! PS: Be prepared for delightful visits from the friendliest local cats – they added so much charm to our stay 💛

SEASHELL ap. Beachfront with terrace,island SCEDRO
Šćedro is absolutely beautiful. We felt so grateful to have found Jasna’s Airbnb and to be able to stay here. We really enjoyed being able to walk to deserted beaches, visit the ruined monastery and spend the day on the beach right outside the apartment. Jasna was a wonderful host. The crossing from Zavala was straightforward, as was the check in and we were quickly equipped with maps of the island. The apartment was immaculately clean and had everything you could need for a short or long stay. We ate all our meals at the family’s restaurant and the food was both good value and delicious. It was simply the perfect place to relax.
Beachfront home rentals with a pool

Villa Aurora apt.1
A beautiful apartment in a peaceful location. Everything is spotless and well maintained. Nick is so friendly and helpful including a lift to the supermarket on arrival. A good sized clean pool with comfortable sun loungers set in landscaped gardens which are loving tended. All the beds and chairs are comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. The views are stunning - breakfast on the balcony watching dolphins out at sea. A top class apartment that we hope to revisit - thank you Nick and family for making us feel so welcome in your home.

Villa Kebeo - Penthouse, private jacuzzi,Duce-Omis
We had a fantastic week staying in the Penthouse! The views are incredible. The apartment was beautiful and is immaculately clean. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend. Toni was a fantastic host, very welcoming and even let us check in early. He was very responsive if you had any queries. Thanks Toni for a great week!

Epetium Beach Villa with Private Pool
The villa is fantastic and the local area is quiet but has enough restaurants and bars to keep you busy. Getting in and out of Split is easy and Uber is very good value (do not use local taxis). The standout feature of the property is the outside area including the views. It is easy to access the sea and beach, and the water is beautiful. The only potential to the villa is how it is split across two properties. This was not an issue for us at all, and for some people this may be a bonus, but worth noting.

ISLAND ESCAPE LUXE VILLA
We were a group of 9 people. The location is fantastic. Very quiet and you can go directly from the villa to the sea. The house was very clean and looked as pictured. The kitchen in the house and also the outdoor kitchen were well equipped and had everything you need. We thought the grill and the pizza oven were great. The house is a bit out of the way. There are no restaurants nearby. However, there are plenty of shopping opportunities and they are easily accessible by car. The house is perfect for relaxing vacations.

BAJNICE Apartment East side with heated pool
We really enjoy our stay. Everything clean, modern, absolutely perfekt. The apartment, the view, the pool, ... . The owner was helpful and communicative. Last but not least, excellent conditions for charging our electric car. It was wonderful, we would love to come back.

Villa Dragica -Your Luxurious Delight on the Coast
I am a little lost for words on how to describe the magnificent property and our hosts. Wonderful people who went WAY beyond expectations to make us feel at home. This property is breathtaking!! I have travelled a lot of the world and there are few places that would rival this house. The decor, the layout, the rooftop pool, the balcony and the beach literally 15m away. One of the most spectacular views I have seen. But again… our hosts Stipe and Ivana a beautiful people and we hope to see them VERY soon ❤️

Villa Vito, seaside villa near town Hvar
Villa Vito is in a beautiful setting with views over a secluded bay, and surrounded by olive groves. The outside space is thoughtfully designed to create a really peaceful and lovely area. We were there in the penultimate week of May and were very unlucky with the weather. Rain, high winds and chilly nights, although we did have some intermittent sunshine. We used the pool and swam in the sea. Overall we felt that the villa will work really well in better weather, when the outside space will really come into its own and evenings can be spent around the table by the pool, and making use of the outside sofa area. Inside, the downstairs space is rather limited, especially when confined by the weather as it is just an open plan kitchen with a sofa area at one end. It was fine for two but we felt it might be a bit 'tight' for a group of six. Ambroz was a very responsive and helpful host, especially when we had trouble with the door and the hot water, quickly sorting things out for us.

VILLA BANE heated 32m2 pool, whirlpool,120m to sea
We were a family of 10 people who had a great stay at the house. Everything was up to expectations and the host was really turned on and accommodating. In mid-May there were very little people and activities in the area, and all of the kiosks and bars along the beach were closed (except for the shooko and the neighbor). It was a bit too far to walk to the store to shop for goods and a bit far to walk to Omis. Would think there is more activity and possibilities in high season:) Otherwise, great house we had a great time in.
Private beachfront home rentals

Lux apartment Laurante
We had a wonderful stay in Makarska! The apartment was spotlessly clean and felt like home from the moment we arrived. It was exceptionally well-equipped with everything we needed: a hairdryer, hair straightener, washing machine and dishwasher pods, coffee pods, bin bags, cleaning sprays, and a drying rack. All the appliances (dishwasher, washing machine, fridge, freezer, etc.) were high-quality and worked perfectly. The bed was firm and comfortable, and the couch was super cozy. Parking was also a breeze, which was a big plus. A couple of minor improvements could be made. The Wi-Fi, at 10mbps, was a bit slow for anything beyond streaming Netflix, and a frying pan would have been a great addition to the kitchen. Also, a heads-up for future guests: the apartment is at the top of a hill, so the last 100m could be challenging for those with mobility issues or knee problems. Overall, we loved our stay and would highly recommend this place!

Illyria, just 3m from the sea!
Awesome place, the photos looked unreal but when we got there we saw the place better than photos! Beautifully hosted by Nikol and Thea. Definitely going to stay again.

Pina&Yucca | Luxury Apartment, Walk to the Beach!
We would give this apartment more than five stars if we could! From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by how beautifully decorated, cozy, and thoughtfully designed everything was. Every detail was carefully considered to make the space feel welcoming and comfortable. One of our favorite features was the spacious balcony terrace. We spent countless hours there, sipping coffee or wine while enjoying the stunning sea view – it was pure relaxation. The location is absolutely perfect. Just a few steps from the beach, where you can enjoy breakfast, lunch, dinner, and, of course, some delicious ice cream. The beach is also fully equipped with everything you need for a fun day in the sun – you can rent a boat, paddleboard, beach beds, umbrellas etc For getting into town, you have options: either am 15-minute walk or a quick and easy boat taxi ride or only five minutes away by Uber from the local restaurants and vibrant atmosphere. Finally, a huge bravo to our hosts 🙌🏻✅👏

Seafront apartment w. free parking ( Andro)
We loved staying in this apartment. Easy access to town, walkable distance to supermarket, other beaches and the highlight: swimming spot at your feet. What an incredible location. We loved the place and would love to come back to Hvar. Also, thanks to Branka, the owner, for a friendly and warm welcome.

Sea view apartmant Dea Postira
Wow! First of all, the house is right next to the sea with a gorgeous patio and breathtaking views. You enter through a stunning garden, up a few steps to the terrace with the garden view and then enter to a spacious, airy space that has nice decor and everything you need. Beautiful beaches are just steps away. Walk around the corner to the harbor and a choice of restaurants, ice cream shops, and coffee shops. Postira is a charming, historic, clean island village. I would absolutely visit again. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

Above the sea, below the stars
Dragana’s 3rd floor flat is amazing and she is a fantastic host. The location is excellent for access to center area of restaurants yet provides a quiet space to enjoy the views. Access to two public beaches is at the bottom of steps and a short stroll away. Dragana thinks of everything to make your stay enjoyable. Her recommendations and responsiveness to questions made the trip even better. We look forward to returning to Vista and her flat in the future.

Modern Beach Loft
We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful loft in Sumartin. The house perfectly matched the description: elegant, modern, with stunning sea views. The pebble beach just across the house was charming and practically deserted, allowing us to relax completely. Mariana and Mario have really created a warm place, in which they put a lot of work and heart. We would like to thank Renata and Tonći in particular for their help upon arrival. They were very kind and always ready to answer our questions. In the village, we discovered an excellent restaurant, "Miron", where the dishes were incredibly delicious. The owner, a very caring and pleasant person, and the locals were overall very welcoming. We also tasted the local olive oil with homemade bread — it was delicious! Thanks for the warm welcome!

Antea 2
We’ve had the best time at Antonia’s place in Hvar! Clear communication and always there if we need any help or local recommendations. Beautiful, light, clean and large apartment. Great balcony with a view. A free bottle of homemade wine in the fridge was such a nice touch! Antonia went over and above to help us!!! Doing kind gestures that we have never had any host do for us before. We had the best time at this apartment and can’t wait to be back! They pick you up and drop you off when you arrive so no bags carried. Book this apartment and your time in Hvar will be perfect. Everything you can want!
