At Villa Estelle, you will find the best of both worlds: the village shop and café are just a stroll away, with more restaurants and bars just a short drive away in the nearest towns – but you'll always have your very own private oasis to retire to when the time comes for relaxation, tranquillity, and spending convivial times alone with your loved ones.
The villa is set across 3 floors. The main entrance is on the first floor and takes one across one of the many outdoor terraces into the indoor social hub of the property, a well-sized open-concept space that’s home to a fully-equipped American-style kitchen with a large wooden dining table.
Soft grey cement floor, exposed wooden ceiling beams, and cool hardwood floors speak to the sophisticated aesthetic, as indeed do the French glass doors, which not only showcase the pool waiting for you outside, but create an organic flow between the villa’s indoor and outdoor areas.
From the open-plan dining area, the hallway continues to two well-sized double bedrooms that share a bathroom with an Italian-style step-in shower. A separate WC can also be found on this first floor. Accessed by an internal staircase, the top floor comprises another bedroom with its own private ensuite and far-stretching panoramic views across the Adriatic out to neighbouring islands.
The ground floor contains a large konoba-style living room, with a separate study with a sofa bed that can be used for larger groups, and a separate shower room and WC. The remaining bedroom is often the most sought-after – this ground floor double bedroom opens directly to the pool terrace, which is complete with 8 deckchairs and several seating spots.
Outside, to one end of the pool is a large, cushioned and shaded sitting area. The summer kitchen is accessed through an ascending garden path, and serves as an alfresco dining space with large dining table and barbecue.

- Villa Estelle features a fantastic large swimming pool. It is particularly deep, and the depths are unmarked, so children must be supervised at all times.
- The pool is not heated, therefore may be extremely refreshing before and after the summer season.
- All of the bedrooms (apart from the sofa-bed room/study) and the kitchen-diner are equipped with AC units, as well as ceiling fans. The ground floor living room is equipped with a portable fan as its position and exposed stone walls keep it cool.
- 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.
- The villa is accessed through a driveway that has space for up to 3 cars; and the villa itself is concealed behind an iron gate.
- 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.
The Area
Villa Estelle is located in the inland village of Vrbanj, where you will discover the timeless charm of old-world Dalmatia.
Vrbanj is one of Hvar’s larger inland villages, set just above the Stari Grad Plain and firmly rooted in agriculture, wine, and everyday island life. Unlike coastal towns shaped by tourism, Vrbanj developed as a self-sufficient community, with stone houses clustered around small squares, working courtyards, and family vineyards stretching into the surrounding fields. Life here moves to a local rhythm, dictated more by harvests than ferry timetables. The village has a strong sense of continuity, where generations still live close together and traditions are not curated but simply lived.
What draws visitors to Vrbanj today is precisely that authenticity. The village sits at a crossroads of some of the island’s most rewarding experiences, from cycling and walking routes through the Stari Grad Plain, to short drives to beaches on both the northern and southern coasts. Vrbanj is also quietly emerging as a stop for wine lovers, with two small-batch producers opening their doors for tastings of indigenous varieties in the village centre. The local restaurant, Konoba Bogo, focuses on straightforward Dalmatian cooking, and evenings are calm enough to hear conversations drifting across stone courtyards. Vrbanj suits travellers who want to stay close to the heart of the island, with space to breathe, explore, and take in a side of Hvar that remains refreshingly off the usual tourist trail.
