Hotel in Hvar, Croatia
Adriana Hvar Spa Hotel
Directly on Hvar harbor, this boutique luxury hotel offers front-row seats to yacht-watching. Rooftop pool and bar, exceptional spa, modern rooms with harbor views, and unbeatable location in the heart of Hvar's glamorous scene.
Adriana Hvar Spa Hotel is a boutique luxury property occupying a prime position directly on Hvar Town's main harbour waterfront, on the island of Hvar in Croatia's central Dalmatia region. The hotel's location at the edge of Trg svetog Stjepana — the large central square and marina of Hvar Town — places guests at the social heart of what is consistently regarded as one of Croatia's most glamorous island destinations. The harbour is ringed with superyachts during summer, and the square's café culture and the hotel's terrace provide the finest vantage point for the evening promenade.
The hotel's 59 rooms and suites face the harbour, the Pakleni Islands archipelago, or the fortress hill above the town. Room categories range from harbour-view doubles to junior suites with private balconies and a penthouse with panoramic sea views. Interiors reflect a refined coastal aesthetic with neutral tones, quality linens, and contemporary bathroom fittings.
The rooftop is the hotel's defining feature: a heated infinity pool and sun terrace positioned above the harbour with views across the Adriatic toward the Pelješac peninsula. The adjacent Carpe Diem rooftop bar is a well-established fixture of Hvar's social scene, particularly in the early evenings when the light on the water is at its most spectacular. The rooftop pool is reserved for hotel guests during daytime hours.
Adriana's spa occupies a dedicated wellness floor with a full menu of treatments, a steam room, a Finnish sauna, a cold plunge pool, and a relaxation lounge. The fitness centre is modern and well-equipped. Multi-day spa packages and couples' treatment programmes can be arranged through the hotel.
Dining is anchored by the restaurant overlooking the harbour, serving a menu of Dalmatian seafood and Mediterranean dishes. The hotel team has extensive experience facilitating yacht charters, private speedboat transfers to the Pakleni Islands, exclusive beach arrangements, and day-trip logistics to Vis, Korčula, and the Pelješac wine estates.

FAQ
Is Adriana Hvar part of a hotel group?
Yes. Adriana Hvar Spa Hotel is part of the Sunčani Hvar group, which operates several properties on the island. Central reservations are available through the Sunčani Hvar website at suncanihvar.com.
Does the hotel have a private beach?
The hotel does not have a private beach. The harbour promenade fronts the property, and several small beaches are a short walk away. The hotel can arrange speedboat transfers to the more secluded Pakleni Islands beaches.
Is the rooftop pool open to non-guests?
The rooftop pool is reserved for hotel guests during designated hours. The Carpe Diem bar on the rooftop terrace is accessible to the public.
How do guests reach Hvar from Split?
Car ferries run from Split to Stari Grad (then drive to Hvar Town) and catamarans run directly from Split to Hvar Town harbour several times daily. Journey times are approximately one hour. Private speedboat transfers are faster and can be arranged through the hotel.
Is the hotel suitable for families with children?
The hotel accommodates families, but its boutique scale and prime harbour-nightlife location make it most popular with couples and adult groups. The team can advise on family-appropriate beaches and island activities.
Accessibility
The hotel building is accessible by lift to all guest floors. The harbour-front location is flat and step-free at street level. Some rooms may have raised thresholds; guests with specific mobility requirements should contact the hotel directly to discuss room suitability. The rooftop pool level requires lift access.
When to visit
Adriana Hvar operates from April through October. June and September offer warm weather with a noticeably less frenetic atmosphere than July and August. The harbour is at its most spectacular during the summer regatta season in late July, though this is also the most expensive and crowded period of the year.
