LOCATION
Cast Away
Gromindolac 30
Main Beach - Gromin Dolac
Island of Hvar
Cast Away is located in the very remote, small village of Gromin Dolac in the south of the island of Hvar.  Our paradise is only accessible by a 4km dirt road that starts in Zavala.  You will have to park nearby along the road and walk the last 200m along a pathway towards Gromin Dolac’s main beach because there’s no access for cars.  There are also no signs, keeping in tune with the hidden, Cast Away beach vibe. This keeps out curious daytrippers and guarantees comfort and privacy. 
The access may be rather difficult, but therein lies the beauty of Cast Away. It is hard to find, but this is exactly what makes this place so unique and serene. Prepare yourself for a wonderful secluded location surrounded by nature, beautiful coves & beaches, walking & biking trails and an authentic Dalmatian lifestyle. Cast Away is the ultimate place to escape the busy, chaotic tourist crowds, and to reinvigorate yourself in a natural environment, with gorgeous views and the sound of the waves, sea birds, and an orchestra of crickets at twilight.  
THE ISLAND
Scenic creeks & beaches, crystal clear water, unspoilt natural beauty... these are a few things that the beautiful island of Hvar has to offer.  Known as one of world's 10 most beautiful islands, the 'lavender' island welcomes you not only with a pleasant smell of lavender, sage & rosemary but invites everyone to discover it's rich mix of culture, traditions & architecture.
Set between the famous cities of Dubrovnik & Split, it's not only Croatia's most famous & sunniest island but has the perfect location for numerous daytrips or to travel to 'must see' islands such as Korcula, Vis & Brac.
Towns on the island
 
Jelsa
For families with nice restaurants, cocktail bars, souvenir shops, etc.
Starigrad 
Old town with a plenty of history, pittoresk & narrow streets, nice restaurants, cocktail bars, souvenir shops, etc.
 
Hvar town
Old, historic city with a sparkling culture and amazing nightlife.  Hvar city is the most famous party place in Croatia hosting the notorious Ultra Europe in July and withseveral world-known beach clubs such as Carpe Diem Beach & Hula Hula.  Hvar is also known as a jetset destination with extravagant yachts, exquisite sea food & worldclass wines.
 
Towns such as Starigrad & Jelsa are definitely worth a visit. If you like really remote, authentic local places I would recommend some small villages inland such as Pitve, Vrisnik, Dol, Svirce, etc. Ivan Dolac, Zavala, Sv Nedelja are also very cosy and not so touristy.
Feel the real Dalmatia and explore those small villages, taste the home made local wine, taste some fresh olive oil or fresh lavender... And don't forget the delicious home made Prosek!
