Artè Oliva experiences #3

Sometimes the best holiday plans are the simplest.

Leave the phone behind.
Meet wonderful people.
Spend time with gentle horses.
Watch your children discover something new.
Stroke a sleepy cat.
Come back a little calmer than you arrived.

This is why experiences like these are part of the spirit of Arte Oliva Hotel. They are also one of the ingredients of our Novavis concept, where we invite people to reconnect with nature, with others, and with themselves.

A heartfelt thank you to our dear friend Gracija Požar and her wonderful team for creating these beautiful moments year after year. We are already looking forward to welcoming our September Novavis group for another unforgettable evening together.

And for our summer guests. If you are staying with us and would like to experience horse riding in the beautiful countryside, just let us know. We will be happy to connect you.

Someone Cancelled. You Win. 🌿

A rare opportunity has just opened for the last week of August in our signature apartment, Balkan Amethyst.

One of only two premium apartments at Arte Oliva, Balkan Amethyst is loved for its spacious layout and its panoramic balcony overlooking the Adriatic. It has become a favourite among our returning guests, many of whom ask specifically for this apartment when they come back.

☀️ Morning coffee with a sea view.
📖 A good book in the hanging chair.
🌅 Warm summer evenings watching the sun disappear behind the islands.

Late August is one of our favourite times of the year. The sea is at its warmest, the atmosphere becomes a little quieter, and summer still has plenty to offer.

If you’ve been thinking about one last escape before autumn, this might be exactly the opportunity you were waiting for.

Some places naturally invite you to slow down.

When we were developing Novavis, we realized that many of its values had already been quietly living here at Arte Oliva. Calm mornings. Time outdoors. Moving your body. Taking a real break.

Novavis brings these elements together into a dedicated experience. During the summer season at Arte Oliva, they appear in smaller moments that add something special to a holiday.

That’s why our weekly yoga mornings have become a tradition. Not because every holiday needs yoga, but because this place somehow makes it feel right.

And yes… we’re also keeping the yoga mats warm until our next Novavis group arrives in September. 😊

Freshly prepared. Waiting for new memories. 💚

Every guest arrives to a space that has been prepared with care.

A few new design touches. New kitchen utensils. A new hanging chair on the balcony. Little details that make a place feel welcoming from the very first moment.

This is Balkan Amethyst, our largest signature apartment, now ready to welcome its next guests.

And one more piece of news. Reservations for Season 2027 are now open.🙌🏻

If you book directly through our website before 31 December 2026, you’ll enjoy 2026 prices for your 2027 holiday.

Breaking news from Grebaštica…

Gravity worked.
But only between jumps.

Up…
higher…
even higher…

Wave to the moon.
Wave to the boats.
Wave to Mum pretending not to be nervous. 👋

Repeat.
About twenty-seven times.

Scientists are still investigating how one six-year-old can have endless energy after a full day at the beach.

The local theory?
Croatian sunshine… and one scoop of ice cream. 🍦💙

Important discovery of the day:

After one hour on the catamaran, swimming, jumping into the sea and pretending to be a pirate…

…the official fuel of summer is not ice cream.

It’s beach corn. 🌽

Mission accomplished.
Energy restored.
Ready for the next adventure.
