Sustainable luxury

Nikola Radovani

The location of the Maslina Resort is simply spectacular. Set in the beautiful region of Dalmatia, it offers a breathtaking view of the Adriatic Sea. The architecture and interiors were designed to harmonize with nature. This can be seen in the various shapes and materials: Understated luxury meets design at every turn. The resort relies on sustainable practices and green technologies to minimize its ecological footprint. Renewable energy and recycled water are a given here; environmentally-friendly products and materials are used whenever possible. Vegetables and herbs are grown in the hotel's own garden, which are then used in the kitchen.

Guests may also use the resort's private beach, which is just 5 minutes away and has its own beach club. Here, too, good design reigns supreme: the changing rooms are modeled after beehives. There is also a magical yoga spot behind the beach club. Or you can relax in the comfortable loungers, which are integrated into the rocks by the sea, leaving ample space for privacy.

Culinary highlights

The culinary experience at the resort is characterized by fresh, local ingredients and sophisticated flavor combinations. Guests can experience a culinary journey and discover a variety of aromas and flavors. They may also take part in exclusive wine tastings.

Breakfast at the Maslina Resort is another highlight. In addition to a high-quality buffet, delicious breakfast dishes are offered à la carte. From Eggs Benedict to scrambled eggs with salmon or porridge, there is everything a gourmet's heart could desire. It's easy to see that the owners are a French family - their croissants are some of the best around.

Pure relaxation

A Reiki treatment releases inner blockages and should not be missed. After an intensive journey inside yourself, you can practice yoga in a beautiful indoor garden or use the modern fitness studio with its breathtaking view of the sea. You should definitely try one of the facials: first, special oils are selected to suit your needs and condition, then special tapping techniques and face yoga movements are used to purify the skin and give you the perfect glow.
