Step through Porta Maestra, the old main gate of Hvar, and into a villa nestled within the ancient city walls. The house stands on the foundations of a Roman villa, and in the basement lies a mosaic almost two thousand years old, meticulously preserved by a team of archaeologists, conservators and architects. Antiquity and modern sophistication meet here in a way no other address on the island can match.
Every room has been designed with carefully conserved historical architectural elements set against contemporary furnishings and amenities. The suites are literally built into the city walls, so you experience Hvar’s rich history from within, in the manner of a small boutique hotel rather than a simple rental.
Guests are treated to a curated selection of hand-treated island produce: robust red wine, fragrant lavender honey and olive oil from centuries-old groves. With breakfast included and the main square just 40 metres away, this is Hvar’s most iconic location distilled into one stay.
