Hotel Hvar, hotel in Jelsa

Hotel Hvar is located on the island of Hvar in the small picturesque town of Jelsa on a wooded hill, sloping to the shoreline, with panoramic sea views from the rooms, restaurant and lounge bar.

Wonderful Jugoslavia-style hotel: spacious with gorgeous views, beach and nature surroundings (minutes walk to a lovely Jelsa), loved it! The atmosphere is laid-back, staff friendly and accommodating, you feel free and unconstrained, and facilities are amazing (tennis, bar, swimming pool, promenade), with a special bonus (if you have kids, it's a blast), a mini-club where you can leave you kids 4h over day under the watch of a super nice lady and enjoy your time off:)) As said, this is a vintage Jugoslavija-style hotel, kind of resort you find rarely anywhere on the coast, rooms are very simple but compensated with remarkably generous and well-kept hotel facilities and surroundings. And for the price, it's far more you could ever get in some other very modern but confined space.

Apartments and Rooms Dobrila, hotel in Jelsa

Located just 1640 feet from Jelsa's city center and 2297 feet from the beach, Apartments Dobrila offers modern and air-conditioned accommodations with a balcony or terrace.

Close to the town, easy parking, can walk to town in 10 min, close by you have 2 main supermarkets, and 3 smaller ones in town, very convenient location. Host was really nice and friendly. Gave tips to where to go to the beaches. Room was perfect, clean, spacious with a balcony (no view), but space for 4 people to have lunch or dinner, and rack for towels or clothes. Fridge and kitchenette. Will certainly come back as the price beats the other locations, clean and close to town.

    Small town, but with plenty of restaurants, and shops.

    Small town, but with plenty of restaurants, and shops. Self catering a good option as restaurants are relatively pricey. Friendly and helpful people. Great base for cycling along coast and inland to places like Stari Grad. Great swimming opportunities in many small coves, Phenomenal views. Also has direct access by ferry to Split, but limited public transport.

    A very attractive and lively harbour offering a wide range of activities: pebble and sand beaches nearby, restaurants, ice cream parlours, bars, concerts, cloth shops...). The square in the town is particularly attractive and welcoming, and a lovely place to have your first cup of coffee in the morning and buy a croissant from one of the nearby bakeries and look out and see the day start to begin in the early morning coolness.

    The local people, you encounter are always give excellent service . I have visited Jelsa a number of times. Love the outdoor cinema. It was very busy at this time of year. Lazy days by the sea and fine dinning and excellent ice cream.

    Beautiful village at the cost, with lot of lovely restaurant and vivid boardwalk near the harbour. Old city is full of narrow, stone streets with lot of nice place to visit. It is not so crowded like Hvar.

    I simply adored quiet mornings there when mostly local people and few tourists are drinking coffee. There's nothing spectacular there but it is great place with just enough restaurants, stores, cafes to have pleasant vacation. I'm impressed with nice park and narrow streets perfect for morning walk.

    Spacious and stylishly designed room just minutes from Jelsa’s historical centre. Very comfortable bed and air conditioning to retreat to after a full day of exploring the waterfront. Toiletries, hairdryer, triable Wi-Fi and tv available. Our host was very helpful and attentive. Provided directions on how to get to the property and greeted us upon arrival. Don’t miss this unforgettable breakfast - fresh fruit, coffee, freshly baked pastries, eggs, yogurt and plenty of juices.

    It was a great stay at Mina Lux apartment, location is perfect, on one end it's few minutes from the beach, on the other few minutes from Jelsa center. The apartment is really nice, very clean and well equipped, air conditioned and with all supplies needed. Marko and Maja were amazing hosts, very responsive, helpful and hospitable. I would highly recommend it!

    The apartment was absolutely fantastic - the best we stayed in on our 2 week trip to Croatia. It felt like we were the first guests to ever stay there - incredibly clean and appealed to the senses. The hosts were really welcoming and had thought of everything. They even dropped us at the bus station on the day we checked out.

    Room is located in Jelsa near beach and you get a good view of the sea from the outside balcony. Jelsa is a decent distance away from hvar centar so you'll need your own vehicle to drive around the place. The rooms were good and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
