Why stay at Maslina Resort

Maslina Resort sits among olive trees on Hvar's Stari Grad Bay — away from the island's busy harbour scene. Low-slung architecture is designed to blend into the hillside landscape. Suites and villas open onto gardens with sea glimpses. The resort's rhythm centres on slow travel: olive oil tastings, sailing excursions, and a spa programme rooted in Mediterranean botanicals. Sustainability and understated comfort define the guest experience for travellers who prefer north-shore calm over Hvar Town nightlife.

Location

Set among centuries-old olive trees on Hvar's quieter north shore at Stari Grad Bay, the resort deliberately distances itself from Hvar Town's harbour scene. Guests trade nightlife proximity for olive-grove calm, sea glimpses, and a slow Mediterranean rhythm.

Rooms & experience

Suites and villas open onto private gardens and partial sea views, favouring organic materials and understated five-star comfort. The dog-friendly policy and family-suited layouts make it practical for longer island stays away from the crowds.

Dining & drinks

Dining draws on local ingredients with an emphasis on olive oil, regional produce, and seasonal menus. The resort's slow-travel philosophy extends to meals — unhurried terrace lunches and wine-paired dinners rather than quick harbour-side bites.

Wellness

The spa programme centres on Mediterranean botanicals, complementing olive grove walks, sailing excursions, and olive oil tastings. Wellness here is holistic and landscape-led rather than clinical or high-tech.

Beach & pool

An outdoor pool serves guests who want on-site swimming, though there is no dedicated beach. The appeal is the hillside olive-grove setting and bay glimpses — guests typically reach nearby coves by car or organised excursion.

Who should choose this hotel

Often appealing to slow-travel and wellness-minded guests, design enthusiasts, and travellers deliberately avoiding Hvar Town's summer crowds.

Who might prefer another stay

Not ideal for guests who want harbour-front nightlife, immediate beach access, or a central Hvar Town base for evening dining.

Good to know

  • Dog-friendly accommodation is a practical advantage for guests travelling with pets.
  • Sustainability and landscape integration are central to the resort's identity.
  • Sailing and wine excursions are natural extensions of a stay here.
