The host is an absolute gentleman, collected us in the town, at a time of our choosing, on arrival and dropped us back on leaving. Made every effort to ensure we knew where to find all of the surrounding amenities and gave great recommendations for beach spots and restaurants, etc. The apartment was spotlessly clean and the views from the b balcony were incredible. Only 20 mins walk to the town centre, 5 mins walk to the supermarket, and 10 mins to the beach. Would highly recommend this place.

Had a great time staying at the Villa Petricic. The apartment was spotless and with a beautiful view. The walk to the town along the water is very easy and comes with a nice breeze. Živko was very friendly and picked us up at the bus station. Would highly recommend!

Petricic was an awesome host. He's been there 20 years, and when we arrived he told us he had searched for the "best view of the Croatian coast and this was it". He was right - the balcony views were second to none. You'll get wonderful tips on locations to visit whilst there - in particular listen hard to his advice on the islands - he knows where all the secluded, private coves are. The walks into town are lovely, but he was very kind and picked us up and dropped us back at the start and end of our trip so we didn't have to carry the bags. This has got to be the best value place to stay in Hvar. Last tip: get Petricic started on stories about Hvar, Mljet and there surrounding islands - he's a veritable goldmine.

We stayed here for just 2 nights during our visit in Hvar and it was one of our most amazing experiences in B&Bs. We were with a car and it was a little hard to find it. The street where the B&B lies is one-direction, so we had to drive around for some time until we’ve found it after asking for information to a nice lady in the same street. Mr. Petricic was amazing and very helpful. He welcomed us very attentively, with his two dogs: Aryx and “the Little Dog”. The dogs are calm, don’t worry about them. He also explained a lot to us about the island and the town. Our morning conversations during the breakfast were very delightful and interesting. He told us a lot about Croatia and Hvar history and places. I really miss them now. The breakfast was very well-served, with plenty of choices, all homemade by his nice wife. The jams were specially delicious. The apartment was simple and spacious with a comfortable bed. There was a TV with plenty of foreign channels: We’ve even found Portuguese and Brazilian(!!) channels, which we thought it would be very hard to find in Croatia. There were a lot of books and magazines as well. We shared a kitchen with another apartment, so if we wanted, we didn’t need to go to a restaurant or to have asked for the extra-breakfast. The greatest thing about the apartment is the view: both day and night views are beautiful. Don’t lose it. The B&B is uphill and it takes some minutes to walk to the main square. The nearest restaurant is Villa Dinka, I think. Well, everything was perfect in our stay there: host, views, food, Hvar itself… Really good! We intend to return in the future.…

Stayed here for two nights. We were in the apartment for 2 on the upper floor. Everything you needed and very comfortable. The view from the balcony was just gorgeous - I could have spent my entire stay just sat on the balcony! Good location - just 1 minute's walk downhill to the nearest supermarket and about 5 minutes walk downhill to the nearest swimming places with beautifully clear water. About 10/15 minutes walk into the heart of the old town depending on the route you take. Walk up to the fort is easy as you're already half way up. Petricic is very friendly - came and collected us and our luggage from the bus station. He let us make use of the apartment all day on the last day as our ferry wasn't leaving until 6.00pm and took us back down to the bus station. Hvar is absolutely idyllic in late September. I have made my husband promise that we will return to Villa Petricic for a whole week when we reach 25 years of marriage in 2016!…

Stayed here for three nights and have to echo everyone's comments. The lodging facility is up the hill about a 15-20 minute walk from the ferry. Mr. Petricic will come and get you or for a small fee, taxis can take you up. We stayed in Apartment 1 which had a nice room with bath and balcony. A communal kitchen is shared by four rooms. And the view........million dollar all the way! It was nice to be in a neighborhood as opposed to the very busy Hvar town itself. If you want a quieter beach, Mr. Petricic can direct you to where the locals go in Bay Mala Garska. Very peaceful and safe place to with a decent place for lunch. For a decent meal without walking into town, try Vila Dinka, located next to Hotel Amfora.

My friend and I stayed here in July for 4 nights, the room was ideal with ensuite, balcony, TV, air con, fridge, shared kitchen with all amenities. Mr Petricic the owner is such a lovely man, he picked us up from the bus station with no charge, provided breakfast for us each morning on the main balcony and even shared some history of Hvar with us. He and his wife have 2 dogs, they are very friendly but Mr Petricic will put them indoors if you're not keen. The house is a 2 minute walk from the supermarket, 10 minutes walk from hula hula bar and a 20 minute walk from the main port where most of the restaurants are situated. I would definitely stay here again, it's unbeatable value for money and is so clean and comfortable. You would be crazy to stay elsewhere!!

As said before, Villa Petricic is great to stay in. Apartment was lovely, it had everything I needed and it was perfectly clean. I'm not even wasting my words on the view from the balcony (which I very much enjoyed) - it's a ***** view. Location is good, just above the nicest beach near Hvar town and town centre is not to far for a scenic walk. Mr Petricic is a very helpful and accomodating host and Lex and Arix are the friendliest gatekeepers :)

We just stayed at Villa Petricic for 5 nights. The view from the apartment's balcony was incredible. It was great having a kitchen in our apartment, we enjoyed breakfast every day (and a couple of dinners) on the balcony along with the amazing view. Petricic was very friendly and helpful, gave us a great restaurant recommendation (Alviz), picked us up at the bus station after we arrived on the catamaran, and gave us a ride again when we left. The 10-15 minute walk to town was not bad for us. Definitely recommended!

Spent lots of time having picnic breakfeasts and lunches on on balcony - so we could enjoy the view. the owner is extremely friendly and helpful. the towels are a bit skimpy and the bathrooms could use some rennovation - however the place was spotless. and yes, the dogs were friendly. the scenic route along the sea was our preferred route into town.
