“Lovely relaxing holiday, excellent quiet cottage!!” This area of Hvar is the perfect retreat. My wife and I stayed in this beautiful stone cottage for 2 weeks. Owners were nice and helped us organize a scooter to rent and showed us the best beach... more

“perfect combination of an exciting and relaxing vacation experience” To begin with Jamie and Roger are the absolute perfect hosts and they will guide you to ensure all your vacation expections are exceeded. They are not at all intrusive but always available to make sure you are comfortable or answer any questions. They know and are well liked by everyone in the village, and one of my fondest memories is when Roger arranged for us to go to Maria's Konoba to purchase her families local olive oil and wine. The island is stunningly beautiful, full of wildflowers and vineyards, deep blue adriatic views around every corner, and old stone villages that inspire refection and calm. The cottage itself has 2 floors, the bedroom being upstairs, with the living room, kitchen/dining area and large bathroom on the lower level. It is completely equiped and tastefully decorated. However the large outdoor patio area which also has complete cooking facilities is where you will probably find yourself spending most of your time at home. The cottage, the village, the island and your hosts, certainly guarantee you will have truely exciting and relaxing vacation memories.

“Delightfull stay in a nice hous on a wonderfull island” The week we stayed with in this wonderfull house was very pleasant. The tips that the owners gave were very helpfull. The service (like renting the scooter etc.) was great! The accomodation very tidy and clean and the atmosphere of the late afthernoon, having a glass of wine on the patio under the grape was so wonderful. It was the best start of our holiday in Hvar, and the reason we decided to stay for another week. We hope to visit someday again in Hvar

“A peaceful sanctuary in traditional Dalmatia.” Jamie and Roger were fantastic hosts who are helpful and friendly. They know the beautiful island of Hvar inside and out. They were able to recommend great restaurants, fun day trips, popular beaches, scooter rental, wineries and more. Their cottage is both cozy and comfortable. It was furnished with everything we needed for a great stay (air-con, wine bottle opener, fridge, etc.). This holiday cottage was the perfect setting for my wife and I to unwind. The property is tucked away in the middle of a traditional village only a few kilometers from the coast. It is quiet and peaceful. Getting to & from the village requires transportation (car rental, scooter, bicycle), but nearby towns and beaches are only a few minutes away. There is a great pizzeria just up the street and two cafes to get coffee in the morning or a cold drink in the afternoon. The courtyard is shared with the main house, but feels like your own private garden. There is a great grill for barbecuing and comfortable chairs for relaxing in the shade of the grape vines. We would definitely stay here again or recommend it to friends.
