Hvar Places Hotel By Valamar

Good location, a short walk from the local town and stunning sea views.

The food can be a little repetitive, particularly dinner - and the quality was good, but not the best.

Lovely hotel, great setting, nice layout with different levels for loungers making it feel less crowded. Pools lovely. Room size S was quite small especially bathroom. Air con a little noisy but ok. Food great as flexi half board worked really well.

Sun loungers by beach should be included in cost of stay.

Good location, lovely pool and lots of areas to sunbathe and relax. Breakfast was great with lots of choice. Liked the wrist band system and flexibility to spend on drinks or food.

Despite signs on sunbeds saying there was no reserving of beds when we got up at 9am there were no sunbeds available - most were reserved with towels and when I complained to the staff they said they’d tried but people did it anyway. I feel like if someone just walked around removing towels from beds when people were clearly not using them it would be quite simple to control.

This is an excellent hotel that we enjoyed every day of our stay. It really was above our expectations. It is located at the end of the town, 10-15 minutes on foot. The are is very quiet and enjoyable for sleep (aside a club on the other side across the water, but it worked only a couple of days and the music didn't bother us much). We took M room size which was enough, but we could use a bigger bathroom. Everything in the room seems renovated. The breakfast was amazing, one of the best I ever experienced. The food was of top-notch quality, really everything was super tasty. You can come as many times as you want between 7am and 11am and most people do it. The rest of the food offered was good, but nothing special. There isn't much choice, although they did introduce or remove some meal over the day. The beach and pool facilities were also excellent. The sunbeds were free around the pool and in the natural shade under big trees. We enjoyed this very very much. If you want to lay at the beach, it costs 20 euros per day for two sunbeds and an umbrella. There is place to rent SUP, kayak, bikes... A taxi boat stops just nearby and you can take it to reach the town center. Whatever you do, you will for sure enjoy the pine forest! Big parking just next to the hotel with plenty of space.

They seemed to have removed some benefits such as soups and water during the day which were completely free just the day before we arrived. They did mention that at the reception that we would have soups, but actually we didn't. There are no grocery shops nearby.
