“Wonderful apartment about 2 minutes' walk from the Hvar Cathedral, but also very quiet. Overall the apartment is fabulous, with a lovely living area, separate bedroom (with very comfortable beds), fully furnished kitchen, and an excellent, inviting outdoor courtyard (totally enclosed). The decor is very tasteful and charming, combining the elements of an older building structure with modern renovation. We only wish we could have stayed longer -- a luxury home away from home!!”
