Why stay at Maslina Resort
An editorial overview of what defines the stay.
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 and wooden sun decks with direct sea access are central to the experience. Guests can swim from the resort's waterfront platforms as well as relax among the olive-grove terraces above Stari Grad Bay.
