As for the room, the value for money is more than justified. The price of a room of this size is much higher everywhere else. The room is beautiful, spacious and above all very comfortable. The whole facility was a perfect weekend get away for my little family, we really enjoyed it!

everything was excellent - a genuine boutique hotel with vineyard and Michelin starred restaurant too
ask for piped music to be turned down and more mineral water to be freely available (as tap water is not nice to drink)

Worst check-in we’ve ever experienced. Apathetic, lazy, inconsiderate check-in desk person didn’t even bother to show us to our room or even try to get someone to help us get our luggage from the parking lot to our room. They just sat there and pointed to a door and said “You can bring it in that way.” We’re 70 and 65. Unbelievable behavior for a highly rated and expensive hotel. We’ve had much better experiences at much cheaper hotels worldwide.
Then another person at the desk said they would have to hold our passports until we left. I pointed out that was against their own written rules and she relented.
That said…we’ve been treated poorly at check-in some other times when we’ve used Booking.com. It appears many hotels consider Booking.com guests second rate or suspect because they don’t make as much money from them.
They have plenty of high end attitude…but…don’t let that fool you…don’t expect a 5 star high end experience at this hotel…

This is a 4-5 star boutique hotel with the Michelin star restaurant. Would give it a 12 rating but seems that booking.com does not allow it.
If you can afford it. Dont think twice.

Very cosy room and the breakfast is just the best breakfast I have never eat!
I let this note because of the breakfast and the food!
Michelin star restaurant is amazing! Totally recommend.
By night, in the room, we can hear some strange noise. It could be the wine machinery in the cave?!

Really nice location, big rooms, really clean, huge bed! Great interior and exterior design. I believe there is not much like it on the island. Good value for money in the off-season.
Loved the Boskinac red cuvee wine served in the bar. It was the default serving when we asked for a red wine. Mind the price though, its 3 times the price of your average default Croation red wine at a restaurant. But well worth it.
Even though we it was not warm in oktober (20-24c), the standard rooms do not have airconditioning and were really warm at night. The room had a fan, but we hate the noice. Some mosquito nets on the windows would be nice, so you can just open them and enjoy the quiet and cold outdoors.
Breakfasts is the same everyday. I found it really nice, but if you stay four nights it could benefit from some variation.
Staff was not consistently at a proper level. Half are really chearful other, some others are not. Maybe it's the end of a busy season. For this kind of hotel that should not matter.
Also, four nights might be a bit too much for us (independent of the hotel). Two would have been better for us in the down season (start of Oktober).

The hotel is stunning. The grounds and hotel rooms are immaculate. Hotel staff were all very friendly. The room was large and spacious with a huge bed.
The air conditioner for our room was broke and while they had put a fan in the room, it became very hot during the night. Our handheld shower head did not stay in place and we had to tie a string to it to make it stay. We went to the bar for a cocktail, but was only able to get a glass of wine as it was the bartenders day off. We also had dinner at the Michelin restaurant and while the presentation and service was great, the food was a little underwhelming.
8.0
Wow. What a place! Everything was excellently decorated and the location was gorgeous. The food at the Michelin Star rated restaurant was the best on our trip. The cocktails were inventive. The wine was delicious; we regret not having another day here to check out the winery! All the staff were so caring and genuinely nice - not like some hotels where they may be stiff or unhappy. Management must be doing something right.
Our room was very spacious with the biggest bed I've ever slept in, a small dining table, and two plush chairs in front of the tv. There was a secondary door separating the bathroom, closet and hall door to the bedroom, which is a great idea. The bedside lights dimmed. The pillows and bed were very comfortable. There were nice robes and towels. There was good wifi throughout the hotel and grounds.
The hotel had a good vibe. No kids around, just a few couples. It made for a very relaxing atmosphere.
Our room states in the description that it has A/C, but it actually only had a fan that is connected to a thermostat. This made it very hot at night. Luckily, they put a second fan in the room.
Quite a few things were broken or just not on par with the rest of the experience. The shower head would not stay on the post and kept falling down. The door to the hall was extremely hard to unlock. The floor was very creaky - you'd wake up if someone got up to use the bathroom at night. The fridge was not cold, not even cool.
Unfortunately, the pool was on the smaller side and didn't get much sun, so it stayed too cold to swim in.

Super relaxing atmosphere, professional, friendly and helpful staff, tasteful interiors, beautiful garden and pool. We already came here last year and returned this year because we enjoyed it so much. We also had dinner in the Michelin star restaurant which was divine.

Everything is thought through. The hotel is located on a beautiful place, the view is stunning, the rooms are great, the staff is friendy and focussed on making the visit as comfortable as possible. Breakfast is very good! And don’t forget to look in the wine cellar downstairs.
It was a memorable stay in hotel Boskinac

The food was absolutely amazing!
The only complaint was the afternoon noise from a club far away with a loud speaker. But it didn't continue into the night.

That this is a special place you can already tell by just seeing the pictures of hotel Boskinac and its surroundings. They are 100% on point. What makes this place really special and above the rest of other similar places are its people. I have never met such a warm, professional and friendly staff. During all our stay there we've felt we are being treated like royalty and long time friends at the same time. Thank you team Boskinac for amazing 6 days. 😘

We had a great stay here, all the staff were wonderful. The rooms are beautiful and the bed slept amazing. The location is beautiful. Unfortunately the restaurant was closed due to the season, but they had a great "Konoba" in the wine cellar. We will definitely come back for the restaurant experience. Thank you for everything, until next time!
