Swanky stay on Hvar’s waterfront
Perched on the scenic shores of the Adriatic Sea in a stunning bay, the trendy Amfora Hvar Grand Beach Resort is sleek and stylish from the word go. Its rooms are bright and spacious, and you can treat yourself to sea-view stay, if you fancy it. In Hvar to sightsee? You’re in luck – the hotel’s less than a 15-minute walk from the centre of Hvar, where you’ll find the St Stephen’s Cathedral, the town square, and the Hvar Public Theatre.
Ready to relax? Go for a dip in the lagoon-style infinity pool – which comes complete with a waterfall! – and then kick back on the plush poolside loungers and Bali beds. For pampering, book yourself in for massages, facials and body treatments at the deluxe spa. Or go one step further and enjoy your treatment in your room. If that sounds too slow-paced, use the gym for a workout. There's a kids' club and a playground to keep little ones busy, too.
When it comes to food, this hotel has got you covered. The main buffet place – Windows on Hvar – is open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and comes with panoramic views over the bay. Then you’ve got the Cascades Restaurant and the Splash Beach Bar and Restaurant, which offer à la carte menus featuring American, Italian, and international dishes. For drinks, you’ve got the pick of the beach bar, the poolside bar, or the lobby bar, which also serves food.
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 Hvar 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 120 mins. From the port on Hvar 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 3.5 hours does not include your wait time for the ferry.

Find out more about Island Hvar
Among the 1,000+ islands scattered around the Adriatic Sea off the coast of Croatia, Hvar is arguably the most dazzling of all, boasting a unique blend of spectacular scenery, pulsating nightlife, and ancient coastal towns steeped in rich cultural heritage. It's one of the sunniest destinations in Europe, too.
Hvar Town draws the biggest crowds thanks to its ornate Venetian architecture, stylish hotels, fabulous restaurants and trendy beach clubs – but there’s plenty more to explore beyond the glamorous capital. Tucked away at the end of a forested bay on the north side of the island, Stari Grad feels like a town frozen in time, albeit with the addition of buzzing bars and restaurants dotted among its mazy cobblestone streets and squares.
Around the coast, you’ll find endless rocky inlets with calm, crystal clear waters, while a sprawling patchwork of lavender fields, olive groves and vineyards carpets the land around the island’s rugged, mountainous interior.
