Waterfront boutique hotel on Hvar Town’s marina, offering sweeping views of yachts and the Adriatic.
Intimate scale with around 50 recently refurbished rooms and suites, designed for couples and romantic escapes.
Contemporary décor with premium bedding, pillow menus, minibars, and luxurious in-room touches.
Steps from Hvar’s historic squares, restaurants, and nightlife, blending cosmopolitan energy with serene luxury.

Riva Marina was created for guests who love cosmopolitan style and coastal serenity in equal measure. The hotel’s 50 rooms and suites blend elegant neutrals with designer details, each offering either partial sea or full marina views. Its intimate scale ensures a personal touch — champagne welcomes, private balconies, and a concierge who knows every hidden bay on the island.

This is a place where mornings begin with breakfast overlooking the yachts, and evenings unfold with cocktails at sunset. The atmosphere is adult-focused and effortlessly chic, with Hvar’s nightlife, art galleries, and quaint squares just steps away. The property operates on a bed and breakfast basis, giving guests freedom to explore the island’s gourmet scene at their own pace.

Facilities

Bars & Restaurants

Roots Restaurant – An elegant Mediterranean dining space that fronts the marina, serving refined Dalmatian cuisine crafted from seasonal local ingredients. Soft lighting and sea-breeze terraces create a romantic setting ideal for dinner à deux.

BB Social Bar & Kitchen – The hotel’s waterfront bar is a favourite sunset spot, known for its cocktails and laid-back beats. By day, it’s a sunny café terrace; by evening, it turns into a lively yet sophisticated gathering place where couples sip spritzes as the yachts drift by.

Beach & Pools

Beach and Pools

Guests can unwind on the harbour terrace or enjoy complimentary access to nearby partner facilities (Adriana Hvar Spa Hotel).

The Adriatic is just moments away. A scenic stroll brings you to small pebble coves and beach clubs where loungers and cocktails await. The island’s famed Paklinski Islands are also easily reached by water taxi for a secluded swim in crystal-clear bays.

Activities

Activities & Entertainment

Days at Riva Marina revolve around slow luxury — leisurely breakfasts, yacht watching, and spontaneous adventure. Your concierge can arrange private boat trips around hidden coves, wine tastings in the island’s vineyards, or sunset picnics overlooking the fortress. Evenings can be spent dining on the promenade or discovering Hvar’s lively cocktail bars, all within easy walking distance.

Guests can make use of a compact but stylish fitness studio, 24-hour reception, concierge services and complimentary high-speed WiFi.

Spa & Wellness

Riva Marina guests can enjoy access to spa and wellness facilities at a nearby sister hotel ( Adriana Hotel ) featuring rejuvenating massages, facials and relaxation areas. On-site, a compact fitness studio offers modern equipment in a calming space. Private yoga sessions and in-room spa treatments can be arranged for couples seeking total relaxation.

About the location

Riva Marina sits directly on Obala Riva 27, the most exclusive stretch of Hvar Town’s promenade. The setting is effortlessly romantic — palm trees, sailboats and Venetian-style façades glinting in the sun. The port, St Stephen’s Cathedral, and the medieval fortress are all within a few minutes’ walk. Transfers from Split take around two hours by car and ferry, or guests can arrive in style by private speedboat.

Transfer time

Split International Airport is the closest airport. Guests can reach the Riva Marina Hotel with a transfer to Split Harbour and then a catamaran to Hvar Harbour. The journey takes around two hours.
