Little Green Bay Hotel

Another world from trendy Hvar Town, in a remote turquoise bay backed by fragrant pinewoods, LGB markets itself as a luxurious guesthouse.

Its contemporary design uses natural materials – stone, wood, polished concrete and raw cotton – to create an effortlessly cool 15-room retreat, centring on a pebble beach with floating beanbags and sea kayaks.

Enjoy a leisurely breakfast at the hip bistro, followed by Mediterranean delights such as original Nicoise salads, homemade ravioli and grilled octopus. They do essential-oil massage in the garden, and will even wizz you to Hvar Town by private speedboat should you wish for a night out.
