The place was a lovely stay. Great location only 10 minute walk to the town down the steps and 5 minute walk to the local shop then another 5 minutes to the closest beach with the hula hula beach club and other cafes and activities nearby. The apartment was perfect for us, modern, good size and clean with amazing views from the balcony which you can have sheltered if you wish. Overall was the best stay and was everything we asked for.

Our stay at Violeta Hvar was one of our best hotels.com experiences ever. We’ve stayed in many places that were as described or less than described but never one that so greatly exceeded our expectations. The owners take great pride in their place and it absolutely shows. The management went above and beyond to make our stay in Hvar absolutely perfect! We were on a trip celebrating my daughter’s university graduation. After touring through many of the surrounding countries on a whirlwind tour, we decided to extend our trip by five days to relax and just swim in the gorgeous ocean that is Croatia. After reading all the excellent reviews by previous vacationers we decided on Violeta Hvar instead of another one of our top picks. This place and it’s delightful owners did not disappoint! We will definitely go back if Jesus tarries for His church any longer and highly, highly recommend this place and location to anyone wanting a wonderful and delightful place to stay! The closest beaches that are very easily walkable from Violeta Hvar were our all time favorite out of the many beaches we had previously explored. We were able to easily rent a moped/scooter from the owners - and the pizza place downstairs is very reasonably priced - and excellent pizza! Violeta even did our dirty laundry (for free!) while we toured around the stunning island of Hvar on their scooters! We were treated royally and most definitely will come back, Lord willing. We highly, highly recommend Violeta Hvar!

The apartment was spotlessly clean, and the friendly service they provided made our trip all the more enjoyable.

One of the things that stood out to me the most was the sense of safety I felt throughout my stay. The location was secure, and the hosts were always available and attentive to any needs we had.

I highly recommend Hotel Violeta for couples or friends looking for a relaxing and memorable trip. The combination of cleanliness, warm hospitality, and safe environment creates the perfect getaway. I can't wait to return for another visit!

A Warm Family Feel

A lot of research was done before booking Violeta Hvar and it proved to be a very worthwhile thing to do.
Getting the only negative out of the way early, access to the unit from the town centre is hilly with stairs involved. It was only a problem when I forgot something and had to return to the unit.
There are plenty of positives - a spacious, spotlessly clean unit owned and operated by a lovely family. Our ground floor unit did have a view however it was not as brilliant as the first floor units.
The unit is fully self contained, with a local supermarket a five minute stroll down the road.
A couple of extra nice touches worth mentioning - firstly, beach towels were offered and gratefully accepted and, secondly, one of the family members gave my wife four delicious slices of a Croatian dessert just because. And they were scrumptious!

Lovely hostesses. The hostess came to the dock to greet us. It was well worth the 10 euros, of the time she spent picking us up. Our catamaran from Dubrovnik was an hour late. We would have to haul our luggage up the hill, getting lost at the same time, while it was getting dark into the evening. She held our luggage for us after checking out, and delivered the luggage to us near the bus stop. Her mother-in-law helped is with the kitchen. The apartment was very spacious, new, and charming. We only had a little of the ocean view. We were not able to book the sea view unit. Check out, unfortunately for us, was 10am.

A perfect place to make some home cooked meals and sit on the wonderful, peaceful terrace and enjoy a break after all the restaurant food and activities of Dubrovnik and Korcula and watch the moon rise over the city.
The unit is quite close to the harbour and all it’s activity and nightlife but as with many locations along the Croatian coast, the walk to the unit is uphill and at times exhausting but worth it.
The owners were extremely nice and accommodating. Thanks for a wonderful stay. Highly recommended.

Good location

A good location with a hilly walk but not too bad. Beautiful views on walk into the town. Was advertised as 'all rooms include a living area' however our room didn't, just a fridge, kettle and cups and plates. Was an outside terrace which was useful with drying line. Would be nice to have some area to prepare food and a 'living area'. It felt more like a hotel room rather than apartment. Hosts were friendly enoigh when we arrived and gave us a cold bottle of water on arrival. Pity that they couldn't offer a lift up the hill. Instead we were offered a taxi lift for £15. Overall a comfortable room but should be advertised more accurately.

This was a clean hotel with lovely views a short walk away from the centre (though feels longer when carrying heavy bags). We had a lovely room with a great balcony. My biggest problem with this room, however, was that the air conditioning did not stay on which made it far too hot on a nighttime.

Our room had an amazing view and we had a really great patio. Unfortunately we had cold weather. Our hosts were super helpful. Due to a language difference we had a couple of problems. Being from the US we usually have both a heating & A/C unit. There were instructions to work the A/C since it was cold we ignored it not realizing that was the also the heat. So we were cold a couple of evenings. The second morning we were so looking forward to a hot shower only to get cold water. There was a switch with the lights for the bathroom that also turned on the hot water heater. We had accidentally turned it off. The hotel is up a hill and walking to get luggage to the hotel is difficult. Our hosts took us down to down to get to the ferry. There were a couple of restaurants near the hotel. Since we were there before May only one was open. We usually walked down to town for dinner. We brought food & coffee from the store for breakfast. We had an nice electric pot to make coffee and cups ,dishes etc. It was a really charming hotel and we would stay there again.

Lovely little gem in Hvar!

Great getaway spot for couples!

Fresh linens/towels provided, clean bathroom fully-equipped. Friendly charming hosts! There's even a mini fridge in the room too. Walking distance to most of Hvar's spots.

Friendly hotel with beautiful view of town

We stayed at the very expensive Adriana Hotel for two nights and decided to extend our stay. Found Violeta for a fraction of the cost and were so happily surprised to see that the hotel was just as convenient to the town, with sweeping views of the port and castle, and extremely friendly staff. The rooms and terraces were pristine, offering all the comfort of a 4 or 5 star hotel. But the friendly staff is what made this such a fantastic experience. It is a family-run hotel and they treat you like a guest in their own home. I even asked where I could get a haircut, and one of the family members came out with scissors ready to do it herself!! Don't pay a lot of money for the 5 star hotels, you will get everything you need here - prime location, beautiful rooms and views, and much better service!

Great accommodation - and offers much more besides

The family-run Violeta Hvar lies on a quiet road in the hills overlooking Hvar town, but is only a few minutes walk from the main square with its many bars and restaurants. However this distance is enough to mask the noise from the town centre, ensuring a quiet night's sleep. The local supermarket and public beaches are also only a short stroll away. While we didn't bother with a car, the apartment does offer free parking for those guests who do.
We had booked a one-bedroom apartment and found it a good size for two to three people, with plenty of storage space provided. Layout is fairly standard, with the bathroom by the entrance and the large bedroom area opening onto a kitchen-diner and then a large terrace/baclony providing views over the town. The bathroom is shower only, but has its own water heater providing unlimited hot water. The apartment was kept very clean and daily room service was provided during our stay to replace towels, empty bins, etc.
During our stay we mainly dealt with Urska and her husband Tonci, who couldn't have done more for us. As well as the apartments, the family run a tour company, Amazing Hvar, and also offer car, scooter and bike rentals, etc., all of which the family are happy to organise for you. They helped us arrange a day trip to Stari Grad on the North coast and we also went on an excellent wine tour around the island organised through their company.
We would definitely stay again if we get a chance!

Quiet room with a beautiful view

Hvar town is buzzing and noisy until 5am so it was lovely to stay somewhere peaceful. Very comfortable bed. Amazing sea views. A ten minute walk to the town centre.

Amazing Views!

Amazing time at Violeta Hvar.

This family owned apartments provided great customer service. The view from the balcony is amazing. Would definitely stay here again. Hvar is one of our favorite islands in all of Croatia.

Urska was able to answer all our questions.

Small con:

Wifi could be a bit quicker.

Overall, amazing experience for our stay.

Basic and small apartment in Hvar

We had a good stay. The owner and his family were incredibly nice and helpful. The location is perfect because it's a 10 min walk from the busy and noisy Hvar Town center which is far enough for a good night sleep. The Wi-Fi was not reliable and that was quite frustrating. The price is a bit pricey what they offer vs other apartments/hotels we stayed in Croatia for a similar offering.It was a clean place.

Great location, Great value, Friendly owners

Ideal for a relaxing holiday. The location is great - just out of the town but an easy walk. The view from the balcony is lovely and the room a good size. Not a perfect apartment (- the furniture is a bit dated) but good enough and very good value. The owners are friendly and relaxed (and will pick you up from the ferry). Recommended.

Glad we stayed here!

Glad we stayed here because it was up and away from the town centre and all the noise. Our place was very clean. We had a room with a view of the water. They had a small shared kitchen down the hall so if you wanted a dish or whatever you could grab one. We enjoy the deck off our room. We love walking and were happy that the town was just a few min walk away. The town is built on a hillside so it is a downhill walk into town and an uphill walk back to our room. Great way to work off all those great dinners!

Great location and amazing service from owners

The apartment was in a great location, 5 minutes walk from town but not too close that you were kept awake at night with noise. The rooms were very clean and we had a very spacious balcony with amazing views. The only slight downfall, was the bathroom and shower was a bit small. Would definately stay here again.

It was a beautiful room overlooking the town square and Adriatic Sea. Convenient to the beaches and town square. The hosts were very helpful and pleasant. The only downfall was the uphill walk, which was probably good for us to walk off the great food we had. The owners came and met us at the ferry terminal and brought our luggage down to the town centre on our last day very accommodating . Would definitely stay here again

Nice place to stay in Hvar town. It's about 15 minutes walk up a short hill but has wonderful views from the balcony of the coast/ Islands and some of Hvar town itself. Short walk from the fort/ supermarket/ town and pebbled beach front. Guy who owns it also rents cars/ motorbikes and peddle bikes if needed so it was handy to have that option.

Friendly hosts, great view

I stayed 1 night in this family run hotel. The hosts are very friendly and helpful with everything. The room was good sized but could use a bit of a furniture upgrade. The view from the balcony rooms are worth the upgrade. The balcony however doesn't offer much privacy from the other rooms so it can be a bit awkward as everyone wants to share the view. The hotel is up a hill so be warned elderly or handicapped folks.

worthy choice

violeta hvar is modest yet with adequately furnished and clean rooms. this guesthouse is set on a hill in a residential area and some rooms have a private balcony that offers spectacular views of the sea. for us it was a relatively short walk into town as we enjoy walking and soaking in the views (there is a short cut about 10-15 mins hillside, that gives you scenic views of the town, harbor, sea). air-conditioning is excellent (this is important esp during summer in croatia). a hearty welcome is extended by the couple who owns this guesthouse - they help you book tours, pick-up to/from the guesthouse and port/bus station, boat rentals, ferry/catamaran schedule, arrange for a private dinner on the balcony which is reasonably priced with all the dishes/drinks they serve, and just about any question you have, they try to help make your stay as pleasant as possible. although they live in the same building, they give you your privacy but they're readily available when you need assistance or recommendations. Urska and Tunci, the owners, is a large part of what makes Violeta Hvar special. you can also walk to hula-hula beach and faro bar which give you stunning views of the sunset. the guesthouse is really a tranquil oasis after a full day of activities. my husband and I really enjoyed our stay there. we highly recommend Violeta Hvar .

Great spot!

The location is great, walking distance to town but just far enough so you don't get all the noise at night. Wonderful hosts that were very helpful and accomodating. Our room had a huge terrace with a view overlooking the city and the water. The room also came with a full kitchen and a market is nearby so its easy to get breakfast and snack food. They make pizza's every day from 4pm, they are really good!

Excellent views, close to town center

We spent a great two days at Violeta Hvar. It was a short (10 minute) walk to town - beware the hill! - and great to be close but out of the Hvar noise and fray. The view was spectacular - definitely the highlight - and the owners were terrific. They helped us get oriented and they organized an excellent boat rental for us that we couldn't have done otherwise. I would definitely recommend this spot to others.
