It is a conversation topic that could fill the months of winter until the next season starts - where are the ten places you need to know in Croatia?
An interesting list from UK magazine Elle has just been published, and having spent many hours there, I can 100% endorse the view from Toto's restaurant and Meneghello accommodation on Palmizana. And not only the view - the food is excellent and extremely well-priced for such an A-list location. Here is what Elle had to say:
There's nowhere glitzier in Croatia than the island of Hvar – loved by A-listers like Beyoncé and Jay Z, Eva Longoria and Gwyneth Paltrow – but those in the know take a boat taxi from Hvar Town and hole up at the idyllic Palmižana hotel on Sveti Klement. Owned by the Meneghello family for more than a century, the private family home has become a rustic-luxe hideaway with 13 vividly painted villas and bungalows set in beautiful botanic gardens. There's little to do but potter between house and beach, sip cold beers in the tree-house bar or have long, lazy lunches under the trees in the Toto restaurant. In short, bliss.
Palmižana, Meneghello Place, 21450 Hvar, 00 385 91 478 3111. Doubles from £77, B&B
