Accommodation at Luma Hvar is laid out over two floors. The main entrance door is at the side of the house down a short staircase, and opens into a bright entranceway leading to an open-plan living area and kitchen. The living area is furnished with a sofa to one side and the fully-equipped kitchen features a gorgeous stone worktop.

Wide, wood-framed harmonica-style glass doors in the centre of the living area bring in the sea views and allow you to step out onto the shaded, roofed dining terrace and the tiered garden with ease. Another door near the far side of the kitchen, at the end of the entrance hallway, provides access to the rear terrace, where you’ll find a large barbecue grill perfect for preparing al fresco meals. There is also a downstairs bathroom with a shower just off the entrance hallway.

Back in the main living space, a staircase leads upstairs, which hosts four bedrooms positioned in a circular layout around the hallway. There are two double bedrooms that face the sea and feature glass doors that open out onto a gorgeous seaview upper terrace – the perfect place for morning coffee.

The large main bathroom upstairs connects to the third double bedroom, which faces the opposite direction. The fourth and final bedroom is a small bunk bedroom that is adjoined to the third bedroom, but can also be accessed independently via the hallway. You will also find an additional WC located off the upstairs hallway.

Let’s head back outside. Luma Hvar boasts a sizeable, tiered seafront garden and offers plenty of possibilities for al fresco living. Much of this space is shaded and there are two dining areas and plenty of seating for those who wish to gaze out to sea or settle down with a book. Steps lead down from the dining area to the deck, complete with sun loungers and shaded by Mediterranean pine. Steps continue to lead down, past the outdoor shower for after your swim, closer to the sea, until you reach the threshold at the end of the garden to access the transparent waters of the Adriatic.

  • Note that construction noise is illegal in this region of Croatia from 1st June – 30th September. If you book outside of this time, i.e. in May or October, there is the possibility of construction noise impacting your stay.
  • Luma Hvar has a private driveway with space for one car. There is nearby free street parking if you are coming with a second car.
  • The footpath leads from the private garden to a public walkway and jetty, which leads down to the sea entry point. This jetty is a public space that is shared with neighbours, and therefore you may not block it by leaving your belongings there or holding a group gathering here. The jetty is for sea access only.
  • The submerged stones at the sea entry point at the bottom of the garden are sharp. Therefore, for kids especially and particularly on days when the current is strong, we recommend entering the sea via the lovely little beach which is about 50 metres further down the public path.
  • Restaurants and other establishments mentioned are subject to seasonal availability. Opening and closing dates are determined by the businesses themselves and may vary. Some venues may be closed outside the peak summer season. Please contact us for specific opening times of the local village amenities.

The Area

Luma Hvar occupies first-row-to-the-sea position in Ivan Dolac, a family-oriented seaside village on Hvar's southern coast.

Ivan Dolac is a small coastal settlement on Hvar’s southern shore, stretched along a steep slope where vineyards, holiday homes, and the Adriatic meet with very little in between. Built facing the open sea, the village enjoys long hours of sun, dramatic sunsets, and a raw, elemental relationship with the coast below. Ivan Dolac lacks a traditional historic centre or a polished waterfront promenade of the kind found in Hvar Town or Stari Grad. Instead, Ivan Dolac feels linear and practical, and unapologetically shaped by its rugged geography and geology.

What brings visitors to Ivan Dolac today is its beaches and true sense of detachment. The main village beach is easily accessible and well suited to younger swimmers, while a series of smaller pebble coves can be reached on foot all along the coast, offering clear water and far fewer people than beaches closer to Hvar Town. Dining options are simple and seasonal, focused on fresh seafood and unfussy Dalmatian dishes. Evenings tend to be quiet, often spent on terraces listening to the sea below. Ivan Dolac appeals to travellers who place swimming, sunbathing, and genuine stillness at the top of their list – those who are content to forgo constant activity in exchange for immediate access to the water and the satisfying sense of being tucked away from the busier parts of the island.

Guest reviews for Luma Hvar

Paul C.Stayed September 2025

We recently stayed at two villas on Hvar, Luce di Mare and Luma Hvar. Both were ideally located right on the beautiful seafront in Ivan Dolic, and very well-equipped. They thought of everything! The support we received from Elisha at Hvar Away, before and during our stay, was excellent. This was our…

Heidi N.Stayed September 2025

Hvar Away was amazing at helping us coordinate an amazing trip! We utilized Elisha and her team to reserve the most amazing boat day (Simon and the Pelagosa), a night at the villa with private chef which was our best meal the entire trip, a wine tasting and driver to Stari Grad and several other…

Lisa K.Stayed August 2025

The house was in a sweet and lovely location. There were six of us so we had an extra room for our luggage as the bedrooms don’t all have a lot of space to open a suitcase. We managed and loved the outdoor space and the fact that the kitchen opened up to it. The parking space was right for the van…

Sam W.Stayed August 2025

We were two families of two adults and two children each. We all had a fantastic stay and Elisha is a perfect host - kind, thoughtful and proactive. The sea at the end of the garden is magical.

David P.Stayed June 2025

Our family of 5 stayed at Luma Hvar in Croatia and had a wonderful experience. The villa is modern and tasteful with more than ample space for 6-8 guests. The kitchen is well stocked and the location is remote but not far from dining and activities. Elisha was great with instructions and support. We…

Katelyn D.Stayed October 2024

Hvar Away went above and beyond! They stepped in and helped when I was having issues with the rental car company and getting a car seat. I honestly don’t know what I would have done without them! They were amazing resources and has recommendation/solutions for everything. The property was stunning…

Chelsea W.Stayed September 2024

We so enjoyed our stay! The place was beautiful and just right for our group of 6. We loved being able to walk to the beach and nearby restaurants. And the house had everything we needed.

Adam B.Stayed September 2024

What a wonderful spot! The villa stylish, comfortable and super well equipped. The beds were really comfortable and AC in every room. We swam in the sea right in front of the house every morning. The town of Ivan Dolac was such a great size: super chill and sleepy but there are a few great…

Dirk N.Stayed September 2024

We have been in the Villa for 2 weeks and had a wonderful time with direct access to Mediterranean Sea and a lot of marvellous places below pine trees. The Villa is perfect and support and service from Hvar Away terrific - Thanks !! We are coming back next year

Barbara B.Stayed August 2024

Having carefully choose our 1 week stay on the island of Hvar, I am always anxious that the property booked lives up to expectations and when we arrived, it certainly did and much, much more. We had an amazing stay at Luma Hvar. It's a beautiful property, first row from the sea, with all the…

Elisa K.Stayed August 2024

Our stay at Luma Hvar on Hvar Island was truly fantastic. The villa itself is beautiful, with amazing views of the sea and just a quick walk to have a swim. We loved spending time on the terrace, soaking in the scenery. Elisha from Hvar Away was an exceptional host—always available, incredibly…

Villiam S.Stayed August 2024

Everything was perfect, truly the best experience in Croatia! You really don’t need to pack anything since the villa is very well equipped, not a single thing missing! I can confirm that it’s even better than the photos. It’s really worth the price because you’re in contact with the sea 24/7 and the…
