  : Great location and lovely staff
  : Needs a little updating as looking a little tired. Shower was dreadful too.

  : The staff were terrific. The food was brilliant and our room was very comfortable and clean. The location is fabulous: youre a 20min walk away from Hvar in a quiet, serene and lush haven with its own bit of coastline. We swam in the sea every day and at Hotel Podstine there are several quiet areas overlooking the sea where you can relax and have a drink. The whole place has a variety of shrubs and trees which add to the feeling of calm and tranquility.
  : Ok, there were a couple of issues. Our shower head had come away from the wall; a couple of sockets didnt work (including the fridge) but honestly, it wasnt anything we felt like complaining about. The room was quite superb, with a beautiful view: it was clean and very quiet.

  : Hotel Podstine is situated in a beautiful, secluded bay with excellent (sea) swimming right off the front. Sun lounging area is nice - although could benefit from furniture upgrades and service to sun beds. This beautiful location is the main selling point of the hotel. It is a 20 minute walk into main Hvar town - this didnt bother us but could be a problem for others. Breakfast was pretty nice - just get there early for fresher food.
  : We booked a sea view room and paid a premium for this - when we got to our room, all we saw was palm trees. Either do some maintenance in the gardens, or do not allocate these rooms as sea view. The hotel is tired overall - corridors especially. It could be an incredible hotel with a bit of investment as its sea front location is spectacular. More guest service required - perhaps picking up guests from port via small boat or hotel car. Do not book excursions through the hotel - the prices are astronomical. We were quoted 500 + fuel for boat hire - walked into town and paid 180 incl fuel for same vessel type. This is dishonest.

  : Incredible location and the staff was so helpful and kind. Great bar, lounge area on the sea, and large comfortable rooms.
  : Some of the amenities like robes and towels could use a refresh.

  : The location and outside space at the hotel is perfect. There is loads of places to relax on their private terraces and right beside the water. It is a good 15-20min walk into Hvar but we enjoyed doing this walk as its mainly along the waterfront and a nice change of scene
  : The bathrooms in the rooms are dated .

  : The beach and pool area are the real stars of this hotel along with the incredible view. We loved the fact that the beach was private we could always get beds and the ocean was directly in front of the hotel for swimming and sunbathing. Amazing!
  : We were mis sold our room, I paid extra for a larger room in the annex but we were put in a standard double. We mentioned it and they moved us to a slightly bigger room with a bigger balcony and bathroom BUT the shower constantly dripped badly (we did mention it but no one came to look) and there was a very scary looking patch of black mould on the ceiling from a leak above. The hotel looks tired and needs updating, but they were at the end of their season so maybe this is to be expected.

  : Our view from the room was definately a very important point, from the bed, looks like you are floating up the sea. The hotel has an amazing restaurant, we had a lunch and a dinner there, the food was delicious and the waiters are very kind. They also has a beach bar that we took some drinks on the beach, very comfortable. The location is very nice, because its not that close to the noisy center, but you can reach by car in 8 minutes or walk for 20 minutes.
  : The hotel has some spaces that could have some remodeling, like the gym, the spa..
