05 August 2010 John would recommend this property

Liked: Really good double room with an ensuite by the big balcony, excellent air con, nicely funished litle kitchenette and really good shower. The owner was amazingly helpful, picking us up and taking us back down the port. She was keen to tell us what to do in Hvar and made us feel very welcome.

Disliked: It is uphill to the Villa from Hvar centre, but its all good exercise!

25 July 2010 Nicholas would recommend this property

Liked: Marija is extremely friendly and very helpfull. Our room was great and had a private ensuite and a little kitchen. Wifi access was available on the deck but not in our room. The old town was about a 15 minute walk away and a nice beach about 10 minutes. No complaints at all.

01 July 2010 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Our host was extremely accommodating and when she couldn't pick us up from the bus station personally, she sent her cousin, who was equally friendly and helpful.We were welcomed with a full fruit bowl and juice in the fridge and the apartment itself was lovely. Very clean and spacious for a studio.We were also only about 7 minutes from a beautiful secluded cove and about a 15 minute walk from the harbour. Perfect!

Disliked: I didn't dislike anything about this property, however, it is situated atop a hill, so uphill walking is required to get there!

Liked: Nice staff and close to the beach, however a bit out of town

Disliked: Customer left no negative feedback.

26 September 2009 Victoria would recommend this property

Liked: This place was really great, you get picked up on arrival and shown about the town a little bit then taken to the villa which was an apartment with a double room, bathroom and kitchen then you share a balcony with others. This is great as you get to meet other people. The beach is near but not sandy, the town is about 20 min walk there but pleasant. Hvar is fairly expensive however. Defiantly recommend this place, marija is lovely she does your washing too!!

Disliked: Victoria left no negative feedback.

21 September 2009 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Comfortable room with a/c which is essential even in early September. A nice balcony. Its a bit of a walk to the old town centre - 17 minutes exactly - which is a bit of a hassle in 30degree heat if you want to go back to the room throughout the day. The price made it good value though so I do recommend it. Maria is nice.

Disliked: Customer left no negative feedback.

19 September 2009 Richard would recommend this property

Liked: One of the main attractions of this property - and there are many! - is the shared terrace outside the apartment which is excellent for sunbathing and meeting the other guests. The apartment was very clean, comfortable and reasonably priced. The location is good for both the town and nearest beach which are only ten minutes' walk away. Our only minor gripe was that the kitchenette was under-supplied compared to other apartments we stayed at, but on the whole we would give this property a big thumbs up!

Disliked: Richard left no negative feedback.

16 September 2009 Hazel would recommend this property

Liked: Marija was lovely, she offered to collect us from the boat at stari grad and took us down to the port when we were leaving. she was really helpful, giving us advice where to go and what to do. We ended up staying for 3 nights, it was a nice walk down into the town (little bit of a hill on the way back!) . there was a nice terrace to sit out on and a small kitchen with a slightly random collection of utensils!good location, clean spacious room, a really good place to stay

Disliked: Hazel left no negative feedback.

12 September 2009 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Although the villa isn't located directly in the centre of hvar (10min walk uphill), we found this to be ideal. We had a great time relaxing on the terrace away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The rooms were very clean and had cooking facilities and much needed air con. If I was to visit hvar again I would definately stay here.

06 September 2009 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: We had some noisy aussies next door who fortunately didn't go on making noise to the early hours of the morning. Privacy is definitely scarce unless you lock yourself in your room.Staff did help us with a little problem we had, on the whole very friendly and helpful.

03 September 2009 João would recommend this property

Liked: We recomend! Its close to the beach and market ;) but...a bit fairway from the city center. By walk - 20 minutes - but after a drinking night you dont feel the distance, so its not so bad :P But inspit of the distance, we love to stay there! Maria offer all the help and information, very good conditions! Its very value for the money! Its a really nice place to stay! Joao and Rita
