Independent in Croatian Islands from NZ$232

"Loved that it was walking distance from city center but had a wonderful beach at property "

"We enjoyed our stay at Podestine. The staff were friendly. Being near the sea was brilliant. However, I'd advise sea shoes due to sea urchins nearby (our son stepped on one and needed to have them removed). The rooms were okay, but the hotel was a bit dated. But it lived up to the 4-star rating. The bedding could have been better as the duvets/sheets were too small for the beds (no overhang). The breakfast choices were fine, but the coffee machine was broken (it is worth removing that, as a few reviewers had also commented). Dinner at the restaurant was not as good as eating out - it doesn't come close to some of the options, but it is pricey. This is a solid hotel, we would stay again, but probably use the mini-bar and hotel beach bar much less, as prices were high and do not show on the receipt at the end of each day, so that can be a bit of a shock to the system. Overall, it is a good base from which to either launch out and explore Hvar, or to chill by the sea in relative peace and quiet. "

"We loved it here and wish we had stayed longer! Lovely rooms, the ground floor terrace was a great touch considering we had no balcony. Breakfast was amazing with lots of options. The staff were extremely helpful and welcoming. Service can be a bit slow if you arrive past 9:30am, before then is great. Dinner was tasty too. Location is perfect and views spectacular. The pool and sunbathing facilities are lovely. A wonderful place to unwind. The hot tub was empty when we went to visit and could really only fit one or two people in but this didn’t bother us. A drink on the rooftop bar is a great place to relax or socialise. We did this a few times before and after dinner. Service attentive. Massage prices are extreme which was a bit disappointing as an avid ‘spa goer’ but this isn’t a service you have to use. Highly recommend a stay at the Adriana if travelling to Hvar island! "
