Villa Timara is a charming, newly renovated property nestled in the idyllic village of Pitve, at the heart of the stunning island of Hvar. The villa’s serene location exudes effortless natural beauty and authenticity, with dreamlike views of rolling vineyards and olive groves, as well as the sparkling Adriatic Sea. With the lively town of Jelsa and Hvar’s northern and southern beaches only a short drive away, this one-bedroom villa is perfect for anyone who is drawn to the idea of a peaceful island escape.
Upon entering Villa Timara’s open plan living space, guests will be enchanted by the rustic stone walls and exposed timber beams, creating a relaxed, welcoming ambience. The comfortable lounge area provides the ideal spot in which to unwind after a day spent visiting beautiful beaches or exploring the cultural wonders of the island. Here, guests will find a sumptuous sofa which is also a sofa bed for two additional guests, as well as a flatscreen TV. The cool and restful lounge area leads seamlessly into the villa’s light-filled, well-appointed kitchen, where guests will find modern appliances, a charming dining area and spectacular views of the verdant countryside.
Upstairs, the villa’s delightful double bedroom benefits from high, vaulted ceilings and understated décor which reflects the natural beauty of the surrounding island. The bedroom provides access to a private terrace with a casual outdoor dining area and sun loungers, the ideal place to enjoy a leisurely breakfast, while away the afternoon with a good book or share a glass of the local Plavac Mali wine at sunset. The villa’s first floor also features a gorgeous, modern bathroom, complete with a spacious shower and a pair of bespoke washbasins.
With a private entrance through a honey-coloured stone courtyard and the tranquil streets and excellent restaurants of picturesque Pitve on your doorstep, Villa Timara’s romantic setting will have guests feeling as though they have stepped back in time. The laidback pace of life on the island of Hvar is truly enchanting, making this the perfect place to relax and unwind whilst soaking up the sunshine off the Dalmatian coast.With dazzling turquoise waters, stunning architecture, cobbled streets and fragrant lavender fields, the island of Hvar offers visitors the chance to explore a Croatian coastal gem with a unique cultural heritage all of its own. The island is home to a treasure trove of beautiful beaches, from the white pebbles of Pokonji Dol to Dubovica’s pristine bay. Malo Zarace’s crystal-clear waters are perfect for a sunset swim, while Mina is a secluded sandy haven only a fifteen-minute walk from Jelsa. For those who fancy a day of island hopping, a visit to the Pakleni Islands is a magical experience. Pack a picnic and hire your own boat for the day, making your way to hidden coves and bright blue lagoons. Alternatively, you can join any number of boat tours departing from Hvar town’s main harbour.
If you decide to spend a morning in Hvar town, almost any of the pretty side streets will eventually lead you to Dalmatia’s oldest square, St. Stephen’s Square. Home to wonderful Venetian and Renaissance architecture, including the imposing St. Stephen’s Cathedral, this vibrant square in the town centre is the ideal place to enjoy a cup of coffee as you watch the world go by.
History enthusiasts will adore a trip to Hvar town’s historic fortress, overlooking the old town and the sparkling waters of the Adriatic Sea. Originally constructed at the beginning of the 13th century, the fortress was reconstructed in 1579. Today, it is home to a small museum with an impressive collection of historical artefacts discovered around the island. The panoramic views from the top of the fortress are truly spectacular.
On the island’s northern coastline, Stari Grad is one of the oldest towns in Europe, located only a twelve-minute drive away from Villa Timara. Encompassing ancient winding streets, quaint laneways filled with flowers and plenty of Mediterranean charm, the town is the perfect place to visit for a quiet afternoon spent wandering along the promenade, followed by a leisurely lunch at a local restaurant. The blooming gardens at Tvrdalj Castle are enchanting, while a trip to the Stari Grad Museum is sure to fascinate visitors, with archaeological collections dating back six thousand years.
The UNESCO-listed Stari Grad Plain is home to a wealth of excellent wineries. You can also visit vineyards and intimate wine cellars in Jelsa, such as Vina Tomić and the Duboković Winery. There are gastronomic tours available around the island, offering visitors the opportunity to sample a wide variety of fantastic wines, often paired with traditional delicacies such as exquisite local olive oil.
