The best small marina in Croatia, a Mediterranean restaurant with a sea view, and a 300-year-old baroque castle turned into a luxurious heritage hotel – all of this is the Martinis Marchi estate
At first glance, Martinis Marchi captivates with peace and harmony, and if you decide to be its esteemed guests, the courteous staff will remind you of the importance of enjoying the beauty of the moment and the relaxed Mediterranean way of life.
Precisely this contrast of worlds, between hectic life and a place where time seems of little importance, makes this place so beloved among visitors from all over the world. When you add the beauties of the untouched nature of the island of Šolta, which is a truly unspoiled gem of the Adriatic, the visit promises the most beautiful summer memories.
Heritage Hotel Martinis Marchi
Behind the stone walls of the Heritage Hotel Martinis Marchi hides a true little oasis of peace. The castle, which houses the hotel and restaurant, was built in the early 18th century by the Marchi brothers to defend the city of Split and the islands from pirate attacks and to establish a community that would enrich the land. Thanks to the generous funds and time that the new owners of the castle have invested in its restoration, its original splendor has been restored.
The heritage hotel Martinis Marchi spreads over 1500 square meters, arranged in seven lavish, spacious apartments that give the impression of complete privacy and discreet luxury – you will feel as if the entire castle is just yours! Each apartment is named after historical figures related to the castle’s past and is equipped with carefully chosen details and unique, restored furniture specially brought from Paris, London, Vienna, Venice, and Zagreb.

The apartments are air-conditioned and equipped with everything a modern traveler needs, while personalized service meets all standards of comfort for a modern five-star holiday. The castle also has a beautifully landscaped outdoor pool, and the wellness offer includes a sauna and hammam with a relaxation and massage area. For business meetings, there is an air-conditioned conference hall equipped with a projector and a screen for presentations.
The spacious Mediterranean garden that surrounds the entire complex is a perfect place for entertainment and relaxation in the natural shade with a view of the nearby islets. The romantic atmosphere of the castle has been particularly recognized by brides and grooms, who are increasingly deciding to say their fateful ‘yes’ in this spectacular ambiance.
Depending on the wishes and needs of the newlyweds, the Martinis Marchi staff makes maximum efforts to meet all expectations and make that day special and unforgettable. It should be emphasized the professional and individual approach to each client and support and flexibility throughout the entire organization.
Mediterranean cuisine at a high level
As soon as you step into the Martinis Marchi restaurant, a journey for all the senses begins. Combined with top-notch service, thanks to high-quality local products and a passion for cooking, the ultimate gastronomic pleasure is created. Fresh fish, olive oil, wine, and honey from the island are the favorite ingredients that the chef uses to prepare unique, delicious, hearty dishes in this Mediterranean-inspired restaurant.
Good food is always accompanied by good wine, so the hotel’s wine cellar is full of top wines from renowned domestic and foreign producers. Here you can also taste the unique, top-quality indigenous variety Dobričić, which has been grown here for over 800 years and from which the world-renowned and appreciated Zinfandel variety was created much later.
If you choose Šolta for your next event, be sure that it will be organized at an enviable level, and your guests will receive nothing less than first-class service and an unforgettable experience
There is also a beautifully arranged wine cellar, making it an ideal location for all kinds of business and private events. The restaurant also has a small but luxurious lounge area that allows moments of private enjoyment in a cocktail, a glass of whiskey, or a good cigar with a priceless view of the quiet marina.
Marina Martinis Marchi
Since its opening to this day, Marina Martinis Marchi has been one of the more desirable destinations for yachtsmen who want to relax and enjoy the wealth of the natural beauties of the island of Šolta and the peaceful spirit of the town of Maslinica.
Within the marina, 50 yachts up to 30 meters in length can anchor, while their owners can use numerous facilities and activities on the island, which enriches its offer year after year. Guests can relax in the beautiful and clean sea, explore the wild coast by walking and cycling trails, join organized trips around the Adriatic islands, or enjoy the specialties and products of small island artisans. A unique blend of untouched nature, rich history, and indigenous gastronomic specialties makes Heritage Hotel Martinis Marchi a desirable ally and a quiet member of every family.
Business and private events
For the ninth year in a row, the valuable Martins Marchi team organizes the culinary-wine event ‘Wine & Friends’ in which hedonistic enjoyment is enjoyed in gastronomic delicacies, selected wines, art, celebrating the beauty of the untouched nature of the island, and the Mediterranean way of life and enjoyment.
Always carefully selected and diverse wineries are combined, as well as indispensable indigenous Šolta producers, the Tvrdić family, who have been long-term honey producers, and the award-winning Šolta oil mill Olynthia Natura. An essential part of the story about Martinis Marchi is also their summer party for yachtsmen, which started about ten years ago in cooperation with the British brand Sunseeker. In short, guests can expect a rich and casual program with constant enjoyment of all senses and great entertainment.
