About this property

Panoramic Sea View Villa-Pool & BBQ – Seafront Villa in the Heart of Jelsa, Hvar

This exclusive luxury waterfront villa offers an exceptional stay in one of the most prestigious and sought-after locations in Hvar. Positioned in the first row to the sea, directly on the iconic promenade, the villa enjoys uninterrupted sea views while remaining set within a quiet, car-free pedestrian zone. This rare combination provides both absolute privacy and immediate access to everything Hvar has to offer.

Despite being located in the very heart of town, the villa feels like a private coastal sanctuary, surrounded by the sea, historic architecture, and refined Mediterranean atmosphere.

Elegant Interior Living

The villa features three beautifully appointed bedrooms, each with its own private en-suite bathroom and 3 have stunning sea views. The primary suite is especially impressive, offering not only a luxurious bedroom with panoramic views, but also a private balcony overlooking the sea and harbor. In addition to the main bed, the primary bedroom includes a sofa that converts into a comfortable double bed, making it ideal for families.

The interior living spaces are designed for comfort, elegance, and connection. A beautiful living room and dining area flow seamlessly into a fully equipped modern kitchen, creating the perfect setting for families or groups of friends to relax, cook, dine, and spend quality time together. Every detail has been carefully selected to ensure a high level of comfort and sophistication.


Exceptional Outdoor Living Experience

Thanks to Hvar’s exceptional climate, guests naturally gravitate toward the villa’s outstanding outdoor areas, where most of the day is spent enjoying the sun, sea, and views.

Through a separate private entrance, guests access the pool courtyard, an intimate and beautifully designed space featuring a private swimming pool, sun loungers, umbrellas, and a fully equipped summer kitchen, full bathroom with shower, outdoor shower at pool area. This area is ideal for relaxed mornings, poolside afternoons, and long evenings spent dining outdoors. Every element has been designed to ensure that families and groups of friends can fully unwind in comfort and privacy.

Above the promenade lies the villa’s most spectacular feature: a large panoramic terrace positioned directly above the waterfront. As the house sits in the first row to the sea and the terrace is elevated just above the promenade, guests enjoy the unique sensation of floating above the water. From here, breathtaking, unobstructed views extend across the entire bay and harbor, creating a truly unforgettable setting for sunset dinners, morning coffee, or evening cocktails.


Prime Location & Authentic Hvar Experience

The villa is surrounded by some of the finest restaurants in Hvar, many offering traditional Dalmatian and authentic homemade cuisine. Just steps away, guests can explore charming local shops selling Hvar lavender, local wines, artisanal chocolates, olive oil, and handmade products.

This is the perfect place for guests who wish to connect with the local culture—meet locals, hear their stories, taste regional wines, and experience the true spirit of the island. At the same time, those seeking exploration will find themselves perfectly positioned to visit the Pakleni Islands, nearby coves, and beaches, or to embark on private boat excursions directly from the harbor.

Whether you wish to relax, explore, socialize, or indulge in local gastronomy, this villa places you at the center of everything, while still offering a peaceful and refined retreat.

Had a wonderful time at this property, especially enjoyed the outdoor pool area where we (4 adults) spent most of our time. There are quite a lot of steps up to the apt so not the best if you have mobility issues. Otherwise a beautiful place to stay in a beautiful town. We’ll be back!

Amazing stay!

We loved this property. The Villa was modern and very spacious- the photos don’t do it justice. We enjoyed spending time on the terrace - the views were amazing. The pool was a real bonus. Unfortunately it was too hot to use the outdoor kitchen and bbq area but it was most useful to have a fridge and cutlery etc to use on the terrace, especially as it’s not connected to the main house. I would thoroughly recommend.

Amazing Villa

We loved this villa and thoroughly enjoyed our stay there. It was great having our own private pool, but the best thing about it was the terrace. The view is amazing and we enjoyed watching the activity in the harbor so much that we never wanted to leave it! Plus it's of course an easy walk to everything. We loved Jelsa and I can't imagine a better place to enjoy Jelsa than here!

Wonderful property in Jelsa

Comfortable, spacious lodging with a large patio overlooking the scenic Jelsa Harbor. A full outdoor kitchen under the patio makes it easy to have breakfast and afternoon appetizers there. It is also perfect for an evening glass of wine. The restaurant below the patio also graciously brought delivered our meals! The host, Vesna, was very responsive and informative about the local area. This was a perfect spot for a 4 day stay.

Idyllic Island Retreat

We were looking for a couple of days of relaxation during a fast-paced two week trip. This was perfect. We had most of meals on the rooftop terrance and the bar, and restaurant below was happy to deliver drinks and meals. Marina, the owner, added many special touches to our stay.

Ideal sea front villa with pool

We enjoyed every minute of our vacation in this lovely sea front villa with best sea view ever. Owners are polite and great young couple and warmly welcommed us. Pool was clean and we enjoyed relaxing and chilling. We enjoyed drinking great coctails in Mohito bar and in dinners in nearby amazing restaurants.. Articoke was one of our favourite. Especially we enjoyed in bike tour from villa in Jelsa center to Vrboska, which they call little Venice. Road is flat and in the shadow. We enjoyed exploring lovel beaches. This is paradise ..

Perfect place to stay!

This was our favorite place we've ever stayed. It was absolutely perfect! The house was spotless when we arrived. She host even made us fresh Croatian coffee when we got there. We had a bottle of wine and chocolates waiting for us, too. If you rent a car (which is recommended if you will be traveling anywhere outside of Jelsa), there is a place to park at the house. Any questions I had were answered very quickly from the host (like how to use the washing machine). If we go back we would only stay here again. Loved having our own private pool and beautiful terrace overlooking the water and city. This place was amazing!

Amazing find in Jelsa!

The property is accurately portrayed on the listing but if anything undersells what an amazing location it is within the small Jelsa harbour. The absolute best part is the large outdoor deck overlooking the marina with 2 giant shades that keep the sun off. We spent much of our time out there. The house itself is large & airy and ideal for a family or couples travelling together. We were there in early May, the town was not busy and the mohito bar directly below the property was not yet open for the season but we could see how that might be quite loud during the summer high season. We would recommend this property highly.

Great characterful apartment in a fantastic location

The apartment is extremely spacious and all the bedrooms were comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped and there was an extensive information pack. Vesna and her family greeted us and made us feel extremely welcome. They were so friendly and helpful for the whole duration of our stay. Separate to the apartment was the private outdoor space. This space really makes the accommodation even more special. The pool was clean and perfect temperature. The terrace had amazing views over Jelsa and this was made even better with a fantastic outdoor kitchen. Apart from sleeping, we pretty much lived in the outdoor area because it was so great. We highly recommend this accommodation.

Wonderful 3 day visit to Jelsa

Our family very much enjoyed our stay at the Villa in Jelsa! The rooms were well appointed, the beds were very comfortable, and we had everything we needed right at our finger tips! The owner Vesna was there to greet us, gave us an extensive tour of the place, and made herself available should we need assistance. Marina, the property manager answered questions before and during the trip, arranged transfers, provided us with a tour guide, Barbara, who was amazing! Barbara even organized our private boat charter for our day on the water Marina and Barbara were available immediately with answers to questions during our entire stay! Marina arranged for our driver during our visit, Niksa, who became our new friend and gave us his own wine to take home!! The house was beautiful! The views from the terrace with private pool were unmatched!! The proximity to Mojito Bar and great dining, which can be taken back for alfresco dining, was super convenient. The little town of Jelsa is so charming, and everyone so nice and helpful! We would definitely come back and we really enjoyed our time in Jelsa thanks to this great find!

Beautiful old lady

This is the best villa that I have ever been to. It is located on the promenade in Jelsa and I really enjoyed in the view from the terrace. Everything you need is very close and you can go wherever you need by foot. It is an old villa that has been renovated but it still has the old Grof's spirit . The most difficult part of my holiday was when I had to leave the villa. I will definitlly be back next year and I recommend you all to do so.

We are always available to answer any questions or offer local tips, while fully respecting your privacy so you can truly relax and enjoy your stay. Every guest receives our personal attention, and we take pride in helping you discover the very best of Hvar—from secluded beaches to the island’s most captivating spots.

Our home dates back to the 18th century and has been lovingly passed down through generations. It was once the old Captain’s House of the area, and has recently been meticulously renovated, preserving its historic character while adding modern comforts to ensure a comfortable and memorable stay. Staying here allows you to experience the authentic spirit of Hvar, where tradition, elegance, and warmth meet.

We are thrilled to help you create unforgettable memories. From local restaurant recommendations and hidden gems to advice on day trips and island adventures, we are here to make your stay effortless and enjoyable. Whether relaxing on the terrace, enjoying the outdoor kitchen, or exploring the charming surroundings, we want every moment of your vacation to feel special.

We can’t wait to welcome you into our home and share the magic of Hvar with you—making sure your stay is as unique and memorable as the island itself.

Why they chose this property

This exclusive luxury waterfront villa offers a one-of-a-kind location in the first row to the sea, directly on Hvar’s famous promenade, yet discreetly set within a quiet, car-free pedestrian zone.
Guests are surrounded by some of Hvar’s most sought-after experiences. Elegant waterfront restaurants are located directly in front of the villa, while a short walk leads to top-rated dining offering authentic Dalmatian and Mediterranean cuisine. Nearby boutique shops feature locally crafted Hvar products, including lavender, artisanal cosmetics, and unique souvenirs. The renowned Tomić Winery is also close by and highly recommended for a memorable private wine tasting.
Although positioned in the center of town, the villa feels like a private sanctuary. Beautiful beaches with crystal-clear waters are easily accessible on foot or by private boat, making this property ideal for guests seeking both vibrant island life and refined relaxation.
For guests seeking curated experiences, private boat charters to the Pakleni Islands, excursions to the famous Blue Cave, or exclusive wine tastings at the unique Plenković winery beneath the sea can be seamlessly arranged. I will be delighted to personally assist with custom itineraries, ensuring a luxury, effortless, and truly unforgettable stay.

What makes this property unique

This beautiful house is located first row by the sea in the town center, yet in a peaceful area. It dates back to the 18th century and was inherited from my ancestors, going all the way back to my great-great-grandfather, who was a captain. Respecting tradition and heritage, we have completely renovated the house, carefully preserving its historic character, cultural value, and charm.

We used only the finest materials to ensure that our guests feel both comfortable and relaxed, while still experiencing the spirit of the past. Our goal is to make everyone feel truly welcome, enjoy their privacy, and at the same time feel the unique atmosphere of this historic home.
The true showpiece of the property is the outdoor living experience. Guests naturally gravitate to the private pool area, complete with premium sun loungers, a fully equipped outdoor kitchen, and an additional guest restroom. From here, stairs lead to a spectacular panoramic terrace, elevated directly above the waterfront. This terrace offers sweeping views of the harbor, the sea, and historic Hvar, creating an exceptional setting for al fresco dining, sunset cocktails, and unforgettable evenings.
The villa is professionally designed and impeccably furnished to the highest standards. Each bedroom features a private en-suite bathroom and stunning sea views, while the primary suite includes a private balcony overlooking the harbor. The spacious living area, dining space, and fully equipped kitchen provide an elegant setting for entertaining or unwinding after a day on the island.
