Fantastic property in a great location to the harbour town with plenty of shops from food, bakeries, bars and restaurants serving local specialities. The apartment was very spacious and a sea view from the balcony. The facilities were more than adequate and well equipped and had the bonus of the separate ground floor apartment. A great place to stay.

Fantastic place to stay!

Really great place to stay equipped with all that you need (minus a pool;) for a great summer holiday. If you're into African art/decor, then you're in for a treat:) The property is located in a superb location - centre of village - that allows you to explore the town, shops, restaurants + Jelsa is an ideal location for travelling to the rest of the island (something that we we did a lot off). We had a hired car with us at all times and could not park very close to the property, however if you dont mind a short 5min walk then it should not be a big problem. We hired the entire villa which also comes with a self-contained studio downstairs that has a separate entrance - perfect for teens/jungesters who'd like to stay late and come home without distrurbing anyone else. The owner is supe attentative and very helpful. I'll certainly would go back and would highly recommend it.

A charming property in a great location

Jelsa, in my opinion, is the best place to stay on Hvar. Very friendly, relaxed with nice restaurants. Robert’s place is tucked away in the old town and has been renovated to a high standard. Quaint, but perfectly comfortable. As well as the house itself, there is an outside terrace and garden so you can sit outside. Robert was very helpful and easy to deal with. I thoroughly recommend this rental.

Wonderful holiday

We had a really great holiday at Villa Fjaka. Accomodation was perfect for our family, with our adult daughters sleeping in the ground floor room. Villa was comfortable, quirky and very well equipped. It is just a few minutes from the harbour, restaurants and shops and being sited in a residential area was a real plus as it was peaceful. We spent many hours on the sun terrace as a contrast to sunbathing on the variety of locations along the coast where we swam in the lovely warm sea. We ate very well in several of the restaurants in the harbour, which is a charming, family-friendly area for after-dinner strolling and ice-creams. We enjoyed exploring the island by boat and open-topped beetle and we thoroughly recommend a holiday in Villa Fjaka in beautiful Jelsa.

Beautifully presented, well located and comfortable.

We really enjoyed our stay here. We ended up using the top part of the property only, which meant using the sofa bed, but that was fine. The terrace is lovely, and we appreciated the homely touches (like a well equipped kitchen!) that made it easy to stay there. The walk down the lanes to the harbour was a pleasure too. Jelsa is a lovely place.

About the host

Hosted by Robert De Young

American who has lived in Norway for the past 30 years.
Love to travel. I'm a restaurateur and sommelier living in Oslo and a big time foodie. Married to bookish Norwegian. We have three children.

Why they chose this property

Bought the villa as a ruin fourteen years ago and had it totally restored. Jelsa is a relaxed Dalmatian town reminiscent of the way things used to be on the Adriatic. We enjoy our house and the town of Jelsa so much and would like to share the experience with you. The Croats have a word for the palpable lethargy that is often felt in the island towns — fjaka, described by locals as “the sweetness of doing nothing”

What makes this property unique

We enjoy being two minutes from the main square. It's like a big living room for us, to sit in the cafes enjoying an espresso or a cold drink, people-watch and take in the life of the town. Jelsa is perfectly situated for vacationers who love to swim, fish, hike and bicycle. It also has car rental and boat rentals. Easy access to nearby larger towns of Stari Grad and Hvar town, with many charming villages along the way.
