Maslina Resort is a luxury 5-star seaside boutique hotel, nestled amidst pristine nature overlooking the picturesque Maslinica Bay on Hvar Island. Surrounded by olive groves and terraced vineyards, the resort is located near the UNESCO-protected Stari Grad, spanning over 2 hectares in the heart of a pine forest, offering breathtaking views of the crystalline Adriatic Sea.
Comprising a cluster of 6 interconnected pavilions, three seafront villas, and a Spa, the resort houses a 52-room sanctuary that prioritizes a harmonious dialogue with nature as the cornerstone of its design philosophy. The architecture, characterized by its low-intrusive design, appears to float effortlessly on the landscape, resembling scattered pavilions. Enhanced with a ventilated wooden facade that seamlessly blends with the natural surroundings, the resort offers varied ambiences and captivating sea views from every room, ensuring utmost privacy for guests. Embracing an ethos of sustainability, the resort employs all-natural, locally sourced materials, harmonizing the colors and textures with the surrounding landscape. Custom-made interiors add a touch of intimacy, comfort, and exquisite design, catering to the discerning needs of every guest.
