Who we are
Meet Elisha and Matt
Hvar Away founders Elisha and Matt moved to Hvar in 2020, having visited the island only once before. The pandemic motivated them to take a leap of faith, bidding farewell to the UK in pursuit of building a new life in Croatia.
Having escaped from medical studies at Oxford University and subsequent world traveller, Elisha heads up operations and guest services. Originally from Poland, Matt is a multi-skilled tradesman, former pro strongman coach, and keeps our villas in top shape, all year round.
They soon realised that together, with complementary skillsets and an international perspective, they could lay the foundations of something truly special. Their idea was to create more than just a travel agency; instead, to curate a collection of special properties and experiences that would allow others to discover the true magic of this small island.
THREE REASONS TO PARTNER WITH US
Because only exceptional will do
Your valued clients deserve only the very best — and that’s exactly what we provide, both with our villas and our service. By partnering with us, you’ll be able to offer privileged access to the very top villas on Hvar, the jewel of the Croatian islands. Several of our properties are exclusively available through us, meaning we hold the key to some of the island’s most coveted and iconic stays.
Because your peace of mind matters
We’ll be by your side every step of the way, and your clients will be looked after as if they were family. Having lived on Hvar as expats since 2020, we’ve explored every hidden corner of the island and know our villas inside and out. When you partner with us, you’re connecting with real people who have firsthand lived experience of where your clients will be staying, from the villa itself to the island as a whole.
Enjoy the peace of mind knowing that you’ve done your part. Throughout your client’s stay, our island-based team stands ready, day and night, to support them with anything they need. Matt oversees villa maintenance, ensuring each property stays in top shape year-round, so your clients enjoy a worry-free stay. Meanwhile, Elisha is the dedicated concierge, assisting from booking to departure with expert logistics and inspired ideas to elevate a great holiday into an unforgettable one.
Because we make it easy
Yes, we love going above and beyond with our service. We also believe in keeping things down-to-earth and simple. Part of our mission is to make life easy for everyone we work with: our guests, our villa owners, and our partners. With our real-time synced availability calendars, you can check live villa availability directly on our site. No intermediaries, no endless email exchanges... just a smooth, efficient booking process for you and your clients. Have an urgent question? Drop us a message on the live chat or give us a call. Plus, most of our villas have a 24/7 online booking facility, meaning you can reserve your client’s perfect villa as soon as you find it, day or night, regardless of the time zone.
And when it comes to Hvar, we know all the right people. No need to spend time researching or coordinating with third-party vendors – we handle everything, so you don’t have to.
HOW WE WORK TOGETHER
We offer our contracted travel partners a 5% commission on the rental price of all our villas, provided we haven’t already been in direct contact with the clients.
- To make a booking, you can use our website to either book instantly or submit a villa request. Alternatively, contact us and we will help you find the perfect villa for your clients, taking into account their group size and composition, travel dates, budget, and any other preferences or requirements.
- For all villas, a 30% deposit is required to secure the booking, and the remaining balance is due 60 days before the check-in date.
- Once the booking is confirmed, we’ll assist with travel logistics and arranging any additional services or Experiences. You can coordinate these with us directly, or introduce us to your clients at this stage.
