Exceptional new holiday villa on Hvar Island

After 5 years of planning and construction, Nine Olives Hvar, my purpose-built holiday house, was completed in 2024. It offers exceptional design and views, with magnificent sunsets. Many guests have now enjoyed it. All have praised the house and location. Nine Olives Hvar is a short stroll to a beautiful beach and swimming area, and to the lovely town of Stari Grad. It is easy to get to from Split or Dubrovnik. I can promise a truly memorable vacation. Please ask if you have queries. David The space Nine Olives Hvar is architect designed.
