A wellness paradise by the sea
Rest and relaxation are the name of the game at Bluesun Hotel Elaphusa, a dapper holiday complex that boasts the largest wellness centre on Brač Island. Set just back from the shore, you'll be mere minutes from the sea, and an easy 10-minute walk to the golden cape of Zlatni Rat Beach and Bol village centre.
If you're a sucker for sea views, you'll love it here. Framed by the lush pine forest that surrounds the hotel, the panoramic of the glistening Adriatic needs to be seen to be believed. Spend long, sunny afternoons chilling out on a sun lounger by the curved outdoor pool – or snatching bites of shade under the parasols littered around the terrace. Little ones meanwhile, will be kept busy with the kids' pool, playground, and kids' club with animation programme.
If you can steal away for a bit of me-time, venture inside to the Thalasso Wellness Centre, where you'll find a seemingly endless number of spots dedicated to unwinding. Choose from the saltwater pool, tepidarium with heated water and ceramic beds, saunas, and hot tubs. Even better, indulge in a treatment or massage – you're on holiday after all. Elsewhere you'll find a tennis centre with 20 clay courts, a bowling alley, and a menu of day excursions available from reception.
When hunger strikes, refuel at the charming al fresco terrace of the buffet restaurant or the à la carte Valium Tavern. After dinner, make your way to the Aperitif bar where you can indulge in a cocktail before retiring to your room – which you'll find is fresh and modern, with big comfy beds perfect for crawling into after a long day.
Your journey to the hotel will include a transfer from Split Airport to Split Port, where you'll wait for the next available ferry to take to Brac Island. Just so you know, you'll need to carry your own luggage on and off the ferry, which will include a flight of steps. The crossing takes approximately 60 mins. From the port on Brac Island, you'll take a transfer to your chosen accommodation. The same applies for your return journey. Please note, the total transfer time of approximately 3 hours does not include your wait time for the ferry.
