City: Hvar

Hvar is Croatia's most glamorous and sunniest island, a magnet for jet-setters, sailors and sun lovers. Its impressive capital, Hvar Town, is a jewel of Venetian architecture, with an elegant square, a fortress offering spectacular views and a harbor filled with luxury yachts. But Hvar is much more than its vibrant nightlife; It is an island of astonishing natural beauty, with purple lavender fields, hidden turquoise coves, ancient vineyards and peaceful stone villages such as Stari Grad and Vrboska. It is the perfect destination that combines sophistication and hedonism with the rustic beauty of the Mediterranean.
