Villa Matiss Croatia

Everything about Villa Matiss is relaxing, the living spaces are bright and spacious, opening out to a wide terrace surrounded by luscious greenery. Situated on the island of Hvar overlooking the blue azure of the Adriatic Sea, you will love every moment in this stunning location, enjoying some peace and tranquillity away from the busy tourist towns and hectic day to day lives.
The ground floor of the villa feels expansive, with all the social living spaces in one room, yet with enough space to feel as though you can find your own private corner. Glass doors create a constant connection to the surrounding landscape, with the glistening blue water of the pool reflecting in the glass and the luscious greenery adding vivid highlights to the simple colour palette of the modern interiors. This living space boasts a fully-equipped kitchen with a breakfast bar where guests can gather around chatting and laughing, never leaving someone cooking on their own. Adjacent to the kitchen you will find the open dining area, with a modern table that adds a sophistication to your dining experience. This space feels tucked away and intimate, perfect for warm family meals, or cosy nights in. A partial wall divides this space from the living room, where the room suddenly becomes flooded with light from glass doors on three sides. A huge L-shaped sofa sits in the centre of the room, where you can relax, putting your feet up and enjoying the view of either the terrace or the television in front!
The villa’s four spacious bedrooms are upstairs, two with access out to beautiful balconies and all with their own private bathroom. The rooms are large enough so you can enjoy your own space, unpacking your belonging and enjoying time along or as a couple away from the rest of the group.
On the lower ground floor, the real luxury unfolds, with an indulgent jacuzzi and sauna, as well as a small gym. This sense of luxury continues out on the terrace, where the private swimming pool takes pride of place, encouraging you to sink into the depths of the water, relaxing every muscle and letting any worries drift off on the sea breeze. The terrace boasts an outdoor dining space, a fantastic barbecue and beautiful sun loungers. There is plenty of room for everyone to enjoy time in the sun, from the early morning to late at night as the sun sets in the distance. Villa Hvar Beauty truly is the perfect escape, a luxury retreat for an unforgettable holiday.
Villa Matiss is located in Jelsa on Hvar Island. Hvar has long been known for its stunning beaches and breath-taking landscapes, with the luscious hills of Jelsa rising up above sea-level and the beaches stretching down into the turquoise sea. Jelsa is the tourist centre of the north side of Hvar, with wonderful sandy beaches, numerous vineyards and historic cultural landmarks making it a fabulous place to visit.
During your stay you can enjoy the traditional Mediterranean cuisine and quality Hvar wine. The island boasts a myriad of atmospheric restaurants and bars, perfect for relaxed family meals and lively evenings with friends. If you are looking for a more sophisticated evening, then wine-tasting is a good option in the beautiful new winery. Vitarnja Beach is a beautiful cove near Jelsa which will delight with its clear azure blue waters and intoxicating aromas from the surrounding pine trees. Prapatna Beach is also nearby and worth a visit.
Hvar is a great base for exploring the other nearby islands and the mainland as well. From Jelsa you can take day excursions to Brac, taking the ferry to Bol at the base of the Vidora Gora, the highest peak of the Adriatic islands. With paths leading up to the peak you can enjoy some of the most beautiful views in Croatia!
The island is easy to access, as you can fly into Split airport, and then take the catamaran to Hvar Town. You can also book a group speed taxi boat service, taking just 55 minutes from the airport to Hvar.
