This hostel has undergone recent renovation so the older reviews don't apply. New bathrooms and rooms. Extraordinarily nice and friendly staff that speaks great English. We had some trouble with the balcony door and light bulb but the staff was quick to fix it. Beautiful balcony with a killer view. It's a ten minute walk from hostel to city cebter.

I stayed at Villa Skansi in August 2012 with a friend visiting Hvar for the nightlife and general good time and we couldn't have asked for more. Yes it's a little chaotic, but anyone booking a stay in a 10 or 14 bed mixed dorm should be expecting, if not embracing this! The beds are simple and slighly on the... More

Having been pointed in the wrong direction by some locals while looking for the hostel was well worth its extra mile on foot. In the second week of September 2012, the holiday season in Hvar was on its last legs but the atmosphere in this well decorated and situated family-run hostel showed no signs of giving up. Walk-ins and travellers... More

the place is great, location quite convenient, though cleaning crew could do more. what i didn't like was the attitude. the staff couldn't even provide decent instruction on how to find the place and i ended up wondering with luggage for an extra hour around their residential area. staff is polite and nice, but you're on your own on figuring...

This is a great party hostel that lets you meet people, but still sleep! About a max 10min walk to harbour, it has a great balcony with a nice view. Good layout and very clean bathrooms, many ensuite in the rooms. Every night they have a huge predrink at the in-hostel bar then take people on a free pub crawl... More

The best thing about this hostel is that it has a great terrace and is a 10-minute walk to the City Center. The staff was somewhat helpful, although they did not seem to have much to offer in the way of excursion recommendations. The bedrooms are ok, but no one locks the doors. The shower was clean, but the rest... More

My friends and I stayed here as it got such great reviews. Upon arriving the staff were friendly and were were taken straight to our room. The rooms do not have locks and they have an adjoining bathroom so we had complete random people using our room as a thoroughfare. The next day we got back from the beach to... More

Very nice hostel in terms of the look and feel - very clean, nice terrace where you can always meet people, large dorms where you also meet many people (do bring some earplugs). The staff is very friendly and joins in all sort of activities as well as going out at night. The location is not optimal as you have... More

The hostel is all about creating a social environment with large outdoor entertainment areas where you can sit, relax, talk and most importantly have some drinks.
