The new five-star Maslina Resort, a member of Relais & Chateaux and Croatia’s very first mindful luxury property, set on the edge of the picturesque Maslinica Bay on Hvar Island, is delighted to announce the addition of two brand-new four bedroomed villas and one five-bedroomed villa. The stunning new villas complement the 50 rooms and suites in the boutique resort. Perfect for families and larger groups, the spacious villas offer contemporary interiors and refined seclusion.
With impeccable design by local architect Tomislav Alujevic, owner of the award-winning architectural studio, Aalto, which integrated the villas into the landscape, without obstructing it. This creates a non-intrusive structural design that combines the use of organic and native materials, allowing the beautiful villas to blend seamlessly into their natural surroundings. This picturesque landscape is thanks to skilled landscape designer, Thomas Seconde from AC&T. The light-filled minimalist interiors, imagined by interior designer Léonie Alma Mason of LAM Studio and stunning sea views reflect Maslina Resort’s ethos of wellbeing and mindfulness, allowing guests to escape to their private sanctuary surrounded by olive trees and gorgeous, landscaped gardens.
Situated on the edge of Maslinica Bay, overlooking and steps from the crystalline waters of the Adriatic Sea, each of the villas is extremely exclusive and differ in style. The 300m2 Villa Litica and Villa Borovina, both have four bedrooms. Villa Litica has three king-sized bedrooms and one twin-bedroom and Villa Borovina has four king-sized bedrooms. Both villas have an open dining space, an expansive terrace and a large garage with ample space for two vehicles. These villas offer the ultimate luxury experience, with a serene outdoor space that includes two private heated pools, perfect for relaxing under the Croatian sun, complete with olive trees for shade and outdoor showers.
The 500m2 five-bedroom Villa Uvala is elegantly outstanding with three king-size bedrooms and two twin bedrooms and an extensive open-plan indoor living area encompassing a dining table and living room with a large fireplace, as well as an expansive kitchen with bar seating. The bathrooms offer uninterrupted sea-views and large hand-carved, natural stone bathtubs. There is also a private suite with a separate entrance and access. The villa epitomises Masina Resort’s mindful luxury philosophy, evident in the private Finnish sauna, state-of-the-art fitness room, heated 55m2 infinity pool and jacuzzi perfect for relaxing and rejuvenating mind and body.
Each villa offers guests the ultimate luxury experience, with private butlers, dining and sommelier services available. All the villas offer guests peace of mind, should they require all the facilities of Maslina Resort, without venturing into the resort itself.
