Luxury Hvar Holidays

For small town charm and exciting culture

Located on an island just off the south coast of mainland Croatia, Hvar Town is perfect for couples wanting to soak in the quiet side of Croatia’s culture. Arrive in the harbour by catamaran and watch the yachts and fishing boats as they bob side by side. Head into the square and stop off in bars, cafés and restaurants, serving everything from fine gourmet cuisine to takeaway slices of pizza and delicious varieties of ice cream. You can enjoy the idyllic Hvar as well as the largely uninhabited Pakleni Islands along the Dalmation Coast.

Surrounded by luscious hills and filled with terracotta buildings, head up into the streets of Hvar for souvenir shops and boutiques and the many historic sights and attractions. History lovers can wander through the 15th Century monastery to see the famous Last Supper painting or listen to the sounds of the bells in the cathedral. The whole town is surrounded by 13th Century walls, and the Spanish Fortress is the perfect place to take in the views of the town and its pretty harbour. If you prefer to spend the day on the beach take a boat trip to one of the uninhabited Pakleni Islands nearby and enjoy golden sands and crystal clear waters.

When to go

July and August are the hottest months in Croatia (temperatures can reach into the mid-30s) and attract the most visitors. June, September and October are great months to visit. It's less busy, plus Croatian weather tends to be warm and dry (spot on for sightseeing).

Tipping

Tipping in Croatia is becoming more commonplace in Croatia, especially in more upmarket establishments where around 10% has become the norm. In bars and more casual restaurants, just leave the coins in your change. At your hotel, tip porters and maids 2 Euros or so. Taxi drivers don’t expect a tip, but it’s a nice gesture to round up the fare.

Introduction to languages

The official language of Croatia is Croatian. English is widely spoken too, so getting by is easy.
