City view

Soak up the view during your stay.
The Old tower is situated in Hvar's historical center, in a peaceful area, just a few minutes walking distance from the main town square.
Tower has been luxuriously refurbished using traditional building methods and materials combined with the latest technology.

The space
The Old tower "Ruina di Molino a Vento" situated in the centre of the town of Hvar was built by the Franciscans as a windmill in 1761.
Today, the tower is protected by Hvar Cultural Heritage, as a cultural monument. From the 1971 it belongs to the Lorenzo Tudor`s family.
The property has been luxuriously refurbished using traditional building methods and materials combined with the latest technology. It has its own cooling and heating system, as well as its own water supply, electricity power and wi-fi connection.
The tower has four floors, one bedroom, lounge area, living room, kitchenette, dining area, one bathroom, one toilet, a private garden and a private parking.

Guest access
Guests have an access to the whole tower as well as a newly renovated garden area in front with the lounge as well as sunbeds.

As there is 300m2 garden around the tower, there is possibility to see a bees, mosquitos, and other bugs, which are flying on our plants and flowers.
Be aware that you are in beautiful nature, so if you have any allergies, this isn't place for you.

Please note that we had to remove the sail-style canopies from the outdoor garden area for safety reasons, as the house is located on a hilltop in a naturally windy area. In fact, the original purpose of the tower was that of a windmill, precisely because of the strong winds common in this location.

Other things to note
The property is separate from other buildings, so you will have complete privacy.

There is a water heater switch on the ground floor which you can just leave turned on.


This is a monumental, 300-year-old, one-of-a-kind property. For this reason, we do not recommend it for guests with asthma or similar respiratory conditions.

It is also not suitable for guests with babies or for elderly individuals, as the interior of the tower spans four floors connected by stairs.
