We are a family who owns a restaurant in Hvar and who decided to restore our beautiful family house and share it with you. We are outgoing and friendly & want you to experience Hvar at its best. Our family is large and we like good people, food, wine, nature, sport, kids and pets! During 1960 and 70's, the small village of Grablje was one of the biggest producers of lavender and generated around 3% of the world lavender production. As the generations grew older, there was more interest in tourism and a few bush fires destroyed the lavender business. At that time, our family moved to Hvar to be closer to the city. However, this house was always our safe place, a place where childhood memories and the magic of nature mixed together to create a peaceful and meaningful atmopshere. Almost everything you find here is family owned or bought from people who shared special love for these items. My wife carved her love into decorating our house and making it feel like home away. My wife’s father was a Croatian signer Toma Bebic who criticized the urban life and talked about going back to nature and bettering our life harmony. As such, in this house you will find some beatiful items that her family owned and that have a special energy and meaning for us as a family. Let us know if there is anything you need, we wish you a peaceful and meaningful stay.
Our house is located in the eco-etno village of Velo Grablje. Velo Grablje has multiple trails and roads that you can enjoy during your stay. A few of the trails with take you to the most amazing views of our island and the coast. Velo Grablje is an Eco-Etno village traditionally know for lavender festivals and very lovely and friendly locals that will make your stay even more beautiful. Velo Grablje has around 10 residents, a post office, a church and also a lavender distillery right next to our house. This village was one of the largest producer of lavender in the 70's and was producing around 3% of the world's lavender. After three bushfires, the residents decided to rely more on the other products and give more attention to tourism so most of them moved to city of Hvar. Nowadays, there is more and more lavender being planted as the locals seek to relive their village and preserve tradition. There is a really nice local restaurants only 15 minutes walk away. The area is known to be one of the biggest producers of lavenders. The village is also rich with herbs such as rosemary, oregano, immortelle and similar. We are also proud owners of a lovely seafood restaurant called Kod Kapetana. We offer only the freshest seafood and local vegetables. The restaurant is 55 years old and we work only with local fisherman and farmers. We are able to organize a dinner for you here, or in the house! Just let us know if you are interested.
