There is an enchantment to Hvar in February, a quiet magic that hums beneath its olive groves and dances across the rippling Adriatic. While summer brings a lively pulse, winter slows the island to a romantic whisper — secluded, intimate and bathed in golden light. This is the time for lovers to wander cobbled streets hand in hand, share quiet moments in hidden coves and toast to their love beneath a canopy of stars.
A hideaway for two
Dream about waking up to the murmur of waves and the scent of sea salt drifting through your window? Villas Hvar offers a selection of idyllic retreats, each one a love letter to the island’s untamed beauty.
Stone façades steeped in history, sun-kissed terraces where the sky meets the sea and elegant interiors that combine comfort with charm — every villa is designed for seclusion and serenity. Curl up by a crackling fire with a glass of plavac mali wine or sink into a private hot tub as the stars unfurl above you. Here, time is yours to savour.
A feast for the senses
Romance finds its way onto every island plate. Begin your day with the sweetness of homemade jams and golden honey from the green market and pick up delicate pastries from the town bakery, best enjoyed on your villa’s sunlit terrace.
As the afternoon unfolds, venture into the heart of the island’s winemaking tradition with a private tasting at a boutique vineyard. Sip vintages shaped by centuries of craft and terroir, their bold flavours lingering like a catchy song.
And when evening falls, hire a private chef. Let the flicker of candlelight guide you as the bounty of the Mediterranean is laid before you — fresh seafood, fragrant herbs and olive oil pressed from ancient groves. Every meal on Hvar is a shared secret.
Sunset strolls & secret shores
Hvar’s landscapes are painted with romance, from its Venetian palaces to its wild, windswept shores. February offers the perfect excuse to slow down and explore. Wander through Hvar Town, where history hums from every sun-warmed stone and pause in a quiet café to watch the world drift by.
Climb to the Spanish Fortress for a view that stretches across the Pakleni islands or seek out the island’s hidden beaches — Dubovica, Zaraće and other secluded havens where the only sound is the lullaby of the sea. As dusk approaches, find a quiet perch to watch the sky blush in hues of rose and gold, casting its warm glow over the lovers below.
A journey into the island's heart
Beyond the shimmering coast, Hvar’s interior unfolds like a dream. Stari Grad, one of Europe’s oldest towns, invites you to meander through its labyrinth of stone streets, where every turn reveals a charming courtyard or an ancient story.
Venture further to the UNESCO-listed Stari Grad Plain, where vineyards and olive groves have flourished for millennia, their timeworn beauty a testament to life’s simple pleasures. Here, amidst fields scented with rosemary and wild thyme, love feels as timeless as the land itself.
Reconnecting with nature & each other
Hvar has a way of quieting the noise of the world, allowing you to be truly present — with the island, with yourself and with the one you love. Feel the earth beneath your feet as you hike to Sveti Nikola or let the wind carry your worries away as you listen to the waves from a rocky outcrop.
For a deeper connection, indulge in an aromatherapy workshop where the island’s lavender and immortelle offer their healing embrace, book an in-villa massage for two or centre yourselves in a yoga session beneath the open sky.
