A sensitively-restored 15th century stone house, Villa Dvor Nicolo offers wonderfully charming accommodation immersed in the timeless peace of Pitve’s verdant hills. Views of the rolling countryside abound, not least from the well-placed pool, and it is extremely easy just to put your feet up, close your eyes and soak up the calming atmosphere of life in a Mediterranean mountain village. As luck would have it, Pitve village has a gorgeous restaurant of its own, and is only a 5-minute drive from the charming buzz of nearby Jelsa, with its pebbly beaches, cafes, and waterfront restaurants.

Accommodation at Villa Dvor Nicolo is set over three floors. Original features abound throughout the property, including exposed stone walls, wood-beamed ceilings, restored ceramic stone flooring, and the gorgeous living room fireplace.

To arrive at Villa Dvor Nicolo, you must first enter the Mediterranean-style stone courtyard that connects the villa with his three Dvor brothers: Villa Ardito, Villa Marietta, and Villa Giovanni. Upon entering the courtyard, even before reaching the villa, one is immediately struck by the feeling that this is a very special place indeed. Young locals have renovated these centuries-old stone houses and revived their former glory, but the storied history is almost palpable.

The main entrance to Villa Dvor Nicolo opens immediately into a spacious open-concept living area and well-equipped kitchen complete with a central island breakfast bar. The living room has a large comfortable sofa (which can be transformed into a double-sized 140cm sofa bed for groups of up to 6), an HD home cinema, and a stunning fireplace. On the back wall, a staircase leads up to the first floor bedroom, which contains two twin beds with an ensuite shower room. The staircase continues to lead up to the second floor, where the second bedroom contains a king bed and also an ensuite shower room.

Outside back on the ground level, the dining terrace is an excellent area for al fresco dining, sheltered by a wooden awning, and offering a beautiful view across the verdant landscape. A few steps from here lead down to the pool area, complete with 4 sun loungers and surrounded by olive trees. Beyond the pool terrace, step out into the extensive vegetable garden full of organic Mediterranean plants and produce, and feel free to help yourself!

  • The pool is open seasonally from May 1st to October 31st.

  • Villa Dvor Nicolo is the next door neighbour of the smaller Villa Dvor Marietta, and the larger Villa Dvor Ardito and Villa Dvor Giovanni (also with private pools).

The Area

Villa Dvor Nicolo is situated in the heart of Pitve village, one of Hvar's oldest settlements and considered by many as the most picturesque.

Pitve is a picturesque hamlet positioned at the foot of the dramatic hills that separate it from the sea. It is one of the oldest hamlets on the island, established to watch over the settlements and fields below from its incredible vantage point. Shaded by the rim of the island’s ridgeline, Pitve stays much greener than the rest of Hvar and enjoys a breath of cool mountain air, even in the peak of summer. This historic town is perfectly preserved. There is no new construction here, just beautifully restored stone houses in a setting that would suit a Mediterranean fairy tale.

Today, Pitve attracts travellers who appreciate quiet, generous space and easy access to both nature and the coast without being right in the midst of the action. Hiking trails start directly from the village edge, cycling routes wind through nearby fields, and both the northern and southern side beaches lie just a short drive away. To reach some of the finest beaches on Hvar, simply pass through the Pitve-Zavala tunnel – an experience that feels like a small adventure in its own right. Pitve works best for guests who want to slow down and experience Hvar from its interior, away from more popular hubs, yet still not far away from anything.

Shawn R.Stayed May 2025

From beginning to end, and all the way through, our trip to Hvar was made extraordinary by Elisha and all of the supporting partners at Hvar Away. The communication, the excursions and detailed arrangements, the villas, and the meals ... everything was set up and executed without flaw. Elisha's…

Jonathan L.Stayed April 2025

Quality service means responsiveness and timeliness. And the Hvar Team went above and beyond for my and my daughter's trip to Hvar and Villa Dvor Nicolo. I can't recommend them enough.

Anna W.Stayed August 2024

We absolutely loved our stay at the house. It has been beautifully restored inside and out. The quality of the beds and bathrooms make you feel like you’re staying in a boutique hotel. The village is quite remote and very peaceful which is fine if you have a car. There is a lovely outdoor restaurant…

Linn B.Stayed July 2024

Great week spent in Pitve, in the most beautiful surroundings! Such great hosts, and the house is beautiful.

Randel Y.Stayed June 2024

This was our favourite stop of our trip. Took some time off and enjoyed what the place had to offer. A nice pool, peaceful surroundings and nice view to the surrounding mountains and church! The house is very beautiful, especially if you are fond of old architecture. The hosts were very welcoming…

Elizabeth B.Stayed May 2024

Elisha at Hvar Away was a joy to work with! The booking process was made so easy and she helped arrange yoga mats and a massage table for our retreat, all was waiting for us upon arrival. The villa itself was a DREAM! The perfect place for a yoga retreat. Waking up to the birds, the magical…

Laura S.Stayed September 2023

We loved our little villa in the hills! Exploring the island was simple by car, even downtown Hvar was only a 30 minute drive. Our highlight was a small beach we found just outside of Jelsa. There are so many hidden jems on the island. The village itself is incredible for a relaxing, peaceful stay.…

David S.Stayed September 2023

Amazing, stunning, magical! You truly will feel like you are staying in a fairy tale... I mean, in high-end accommodations in a fairy tale. It's so very peaceful away from the crowds in Hvar Town. The pool was perfect for those hot days. We spent most of the time on the patio enjoying morning coffee…

Joy K.Stayed September 2023

Our stay was incredible. Our hosts met us on arrival gave us a nice tour of the place. It was exactly like the pictures. They were very quick at responding with communication. We will be back. Perfect stay in perfect location.

Jan M.Stayed September 2023

We had an amazing stay at this rental in Pitve on Hvar. The house is spacious, recently renovated, and boasts a fantastic pool. It's a peaceful retreat yet conveniently located for exploring the island. The hosts were very welcoming and provided great local tips. Five-star experience!

Sophie R.Stayed August 2023

Thank you so much for such a wonderful stay. The house was so beautiful and clean. Our host was so helpful, very easy to get in touch with and always replied promptly to any questions. Thank you so much to your driver for getting us to and from the port. Overall a very enjoyable and peaceful stay!

Taha B.Stayed June 2023

Had an amazing time with my wife in Pitve. The view and the location were just great and amazing! The pool was super clean and the host prepared the house for visitors. You will have to get there by car otherwise it can get tricky.

Ann-Cathrin B.Stayed June 2023

The house was amazing and we had an excellent time! The interior design is beautiful, the view from the room and the pool is amazing and the kitchen had everything you might need. Our host was extremely helpful and very nice. We would definitely come back any time!

Duncan K.Stayed August 2022

Beautiful, stylish and modern villa. Very helpful with questions we had about things to do on the island. Lovely peaceful village with views of the sea and mountains. Short drive to lovely beaches, supermarkets and small ports to eat and walk around in the evenings. Thank you and hopefully see you…
