Hvar Island, Split-Dalmatia hotel rooms at the Independent

"Beautiful property, amazing staff"

"This property is in the best location, right near the ferry and the outlook over the harbour is just beautiful. The breakfast is amazing and service i could rate any higher. The rooms are quite limited in space, and need more hooks in the bathroom to hang wet towels"

"I travelled with my husband and we stayed for 3 nights. It was a great short trip! The resort is beautiful and clean. The beds were very comfortable and the air conditioning worked great. The bathrooms were okay, they did not match the vibe of the rest of the hotel, but everything still worked. We had an issue with our balcony door and it was promptly fixed. There is wifi all over the resort including the lobby and the pool area. The buffet breakfast was my favourite part of the trip, the selection had everything you can imagine. The rest of the food was quite delicious too, including pizza, pasta and seafood. The staff were nice enough, but I found that when I spoke Croatian they changed their attitude and were more friendly towards me (I speak English with my husband). Overall I would definitely stay here again if the opportunity came up! "

"Loved the location, a beautiful 20min coastal walk from the old town. Ocean access was perfect, we enjoyed swimming and relaxing on the loungers every day. Breakfast was also great with lots of options. Rooms very basic and bathrooms are dated but would recommend and would stay here again for the ocean access"

"Great stay, clean property and easy walk to the main square."

"We loved the whole experience, pool was fab "

"Great hotel, great staff Best hotel in Hvar "

"The hotel was perfect, we had our room upgraded which really made the stay amazing. Morning breakfast on the terrace was a great way to start the day. We ended each day in the spa before heading out to dinner! The location was nice and close to the marina and town center which was good for us as we were only there for a few days. Definitely recommend this hotel."

"We absolutely loved our stay at Hotel Fortuna. It’s a charming, family-run hotel set in the serene village of Milna, just a short drive from the busy town of Hvar. The atmosphere was calm, the setting was stunning, and the hospitality truly stood out. Our room was spotlessly clean and tastefully decorated, with a balcony overlooking the peaceful bay. The views were beautiful, especially in the early morning and at sunset. It’s the perfect place to unwind after exploring the island. The staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful — nothing felt like too much trouble. Breakfast each morning was fresh, generous, and varied, with lots of local touches. We also had dinner at the restaurant one night and it was excellent — fresh seafood and delicious local wine. The location is ideal if you’re looking to escape the crowds of Hvar town while still being within easy reach. The only minor downside is the cost of taxis, which were consistently €20 each way for an 8-minute journey into Hvar — a bit steep given the distance. However, the quiet and natural beauty of Milna more than made up for it. If you’re after a more relaxed, authentic experience on Hvar Island, Hotel Fortuna is a wonderful choice. "
