Villa Vinarija is a beautifully restored 19th-century winery offering a unique blend of heritage and comfort in the heart of Hvar Island. Set behind timeworn stone walls and hand-carved wooden doors, this characterful retreat accommodates up to 12 guests across five bedrooms, including a charming guesthouse. Many original features have been lovingly preserved, giving the interiors a sense of authenticity and warmth. Modern comforts like underfloor heating, air conditioning, and a wood-burning stove ensure year-round appeal, while a flexible layout allows for yoga, creative workshops, or relaxed gatherings in the old tavern-turned-living space.
Outside, the villa unfolds into a series of stone terraces and peaceful corners. A marble mosaic garden wraps around a heated private pool, outdoor shower, and fragrant Mediterranean planting, while shaded seating areas and a small fountain invite lazy afternoons. A high stone wall offers privacy, without compromising the view toward the sea and open landscape.
Tucked into the village of Vrbanj, Villa Vinarija feels blissfully local yet well-connected - just a short drive from Stari Grad and Jelsa, and close to walking trails, inviting beaches, and summer cultural events. Water sports and skydiving are available within the area for those seeking a further thrill.
