Impressions
During my vacation in Hvar, I had the pleasure of staying at the Fontana Resort. This picturesque resort is nestled in a serene location, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. With its comfortable accommodations and excellent facilities, the Fontana Resort provided the perfect getaway experience. The resort is conveniently located near several popular landmarks, including Vina Tomic, Jelsa Harbour, and beach Mina, all within a distance of 1.68 km. This proximity made it easy for me to explore these attractions, immerse myself in the local culture, and enjoy the beautiful beaches nearby.
One of the nearby landmarks worth mentioning is The Church of St Michael, located just 0.69 km from the Fontana Resort. This charming church boasts stunning architecture and is a significant cultural and historical site in Hvar. Additionally, Luka Vrboska, situated 1.79 km away, is a picturesque fishing village with a delightful marina and quaint streets lined with traditional stone houses. Exploring this village allowed me to experience the authentic beauty of Hvar and its rich maritime history. Furthermore, Jelsa Park, only 1.04 km from the resort, offered a peaceful escape with its lush greenery and well-maintained walking paths. It was the perfect spot for a leisurely stroll or picnic amid nature. Lastly, Paintball Hvar Jelsa, a thrilling paintball facility located just 0.15 km away, provided an exciting and adrenaline-pumping activity for adventure enthusiasts like me.
