Peaceful and utterly serene, Maslina is the result of a long-standing love affair with Hvar island, first embarked upon by the hotel's owners some twenty years ago. Far from the bustle of Hvar Town, they could not have chosen a more restorative location for their wellness-themed venture, nestled away in the enchanting surroundings of Maslinica Bay with its cerulean waters and backdrop of aromatic pine forests. Though the approach road to the hotel appears at first a little at odds with this blissfully natural setting, this will quickly be forgotten once you are immersed into the confines of Maslina, with its low-impact design incorporating local materials that blend perfectly into their natural surroundings.
