    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.

    Very pretty and clean with a good range of restaurants and easy access to the catamaran to Brac and Split. There are plenty of places to bath from the rocks and even in the town which we preferred to the main beach. Found an incredible restaurant in the winding back streets called Nono's. It was so pretty and the food was incredible, great if you like steak or seafood. We had the best steak we've had in a very long time.

    A good logical and sensible choice, in my opinion, for a stay of a week or so in Jelsa. I have stayed here once before, was happy with the place before and also happy this time. Very reasonable price. Conveniently located for both walking to Vrboska (35 minutes) and also for coming on the daily 16.30 catamaran from Split to Jelsa. Best to eat in the evening an hour after the scheduled starting time, if you have booked dinner. In terms of places to visit, the Soline beach was my favourite.

    House is in Vrisnik, quiet picturesque village on a hill, a few kilometers far from Jelsa. After about 10 minute drive you have old town of Jelsa, beaches and big well equipped supermarkets. Owners, the Bogdan family are worm and kind, great hosts, who live in own house in the same garden. They met us with welcome drinks and fruits – really great people! The house is perfectly clean, well equipped and spacious, we felt like at home so we highly recommend it!

    Amazing hosts! Their hospitality and kindness are beyond any scale! Marko was very helpful with everything- sightseeing, necessary supplies, traveling tips. Perfect! The place is brand new, any facilities are available (including dishwasher and washing machine). Comfortable beds, modern bathroom. Conditions are truly amazing. Location is also good. Just few minutes walk to nearest sand beach but also to Jelsa’s center. We truly recommend Minalux :)

    This property was in a calm area, with sea views which was perfect for us, as we’ve traveled with our son. It was close to the Mina beach which has beautiful restaurant, while the centre was about 10-15min slow walk. The hosts were very friendly, helpful and they did their best to comfort us. The room was very well furnished with new appliances. We are definitely coming back! Regards from Mila, Aron & Leon!

    Breathtaking views of Jelsa, the harbour is even visible from the pool. The villa is situated in such a nice spot, in close proximity to the heart of Jelsa (5 minute walk), which has a lot of amazing restaurant & bars to offer. Such a relaxing stay, made possible with the great facilities and kindness of the hosts.

    Hosts are excellent. Could not do enough to help. Let us use their own equipment such as E-scooters, SUP and other beach stuff. Lovely people and so helpful with everything. We are on a four stop trip in Croatia and everyone in our family says this place (apartment and Jelsa) is best. Definitely recommend.
