Maslina Resort

Closely connected to the nature of the island of Hvar

They say that beauty is a promise of happiness, a thought that takes on its full meaning when you discover the magnificent Maslina Resort. Located in Stari Grad, a city listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site, this vast estate comprises 53 rooms, suites and villas, which are all living spaces either on the seafront or with a private garden and pool. The resort is rooted in responsible and ecological hospitality, preserving the wild environment and cultural heritage of the island of Hvar. Its interiors are adorned with natural materials such as terracotta, stone, wood and copper. The foundations, built with sustainable materials, stretch along the Adriatic Sea, where enchanting vineyards converse with olive groves beneath an azure sky. At the Pharomatiq Spa, treatments are formulated using local herbs and oils and are complemented by a detoxifying sauna or hammam session. While some of the rooms have their own private pool, the hotel features two heated shared pools as well as a small beach flanked by a bar. On the gastronomic front, the Maslina's restaurant offers Mediterranean-inspired cuisine that can be enjoyed both indoors and outdoors. During the height of the summer heat, this elegant Dalmatian estate, nestled in a pine forest, benefits from a refreshing breeze that provides undeniable peace and restorative sleep.

THE EXTRAORDINARY

Maslina Resort enjoys an ideal location for exploring the island of Hvar. The island's history dates back to 384 BC when the Greeks built their first city on the shores of the Adriatic, Pharos, now known as Stari Grad. Nowadays, this UNESCO World Heritage-listed area is rich in treasures: landscapes dotted with lavender fields, olive groves and vineyards; wild islets dotting the coast; ancient fortresses, traditional taverns and shepherd villages; prehistoric caves...

ETHICS

Maslina Resort was designed to blend into the landscape and reduce its environmental footprint, notably thanks to its wooden facade, natural materials and limited height. Local and natural materials were also used for the interiors (Brač island stone, agave fibre, hemp, etc.). The property boasts a hectare of preserved gardens, a permaculture vegetable garden, a compost heap, its own wastewater treatment system, a heat recovery system, and single-use plastic is also banned.
