Tucked into a sheltered horseshoe bay on Hvar Island, Hotel Amfora looks straight across the Adriatic towards the Pakleni Islands. It feels resort-like and secluded, yet you’re just an 800m waterfront stroll from the action in Hvar Town – all terracotta rooftops, stone alleys and a yacht-filled harbour.

Spend the day sunbathing, sailing or paddle-boarding, then head into town for sunset cocktails on the promenade and dinner in atmospheric courtyards. Hike up to the 16th‑century fortress for wraparound harbour views, or hop a boat to nearby coves and rocky beaches for a change of scene. Hvar is famously glamorous – you’re in the same stomping ground that’s tempted A‑listers and yacht crews for years – but it still feels authentically Croatian at street level.

• Beachfront setting in a private bay
• Approx. 800m to Hvar Town’s bars, restaurants and shops (lovely seafront walk)
• Easy boat connections to the Pakleni Islands and other nearby coves

Approx. transfer time from airport: 4–5 hours from Split (SPU), including ferry crossing (time varies with ferry schedules and season).

Three restaurants and a choice of bars mean you can keep things as laid-back or as social as you like:

Windows on Hvar Restaurant – The main buffet spot, serving breakfast and dinner with international favourites, Croatian dishes and show cooking at breakfast. Open roughly April–November and the go-to for Half Board guests.

Cascades Restaurant – A stylish à la carte venue beside the pool, open for lunch in season (May–October). Expect international, Italian and local flavours, from fresh pasta to grilled fish and salads – perfect for a lazy pool-day lunch.

Splash Restaurant – À la carte and show cooking for lunch and snacks, right on the beach (seasonal). Ideal for feet-in-the-sand bites and long, sunny lunches.

Bars:
• Amfora Lobby Bar – A sociable hub for morning coffees, pre-dinner drinks and post‑night‑out nightcaps.
• Pool Bar – Open seasonally for daytime drinks (approx. 11:00–20:00) so you don’t have to leave your lounger.
• Splash Beach Bar & Terraces – Beachfront snack bar for drinks and light bites between dips (seasonal).

Smart casual dress codes may apply in some venues and reservations or supplements can depend on your board basis; opening dates and times vary by season. Information is based on the previous season and may change locally.
