Puteus Palace is a tranquil stone palace on the Dalmatian coast waiting to sweep you away

Puteus Palace dates back to 1467, making it one of the oldest on the central coast. Its towering stone walls and cobblestone courtyard tell the story of the Adriatic Sea as it has transformed throughout its 550-year history. You may even stumble across one of four original wells amongst the manicured lawns, which is how the palace got its name.

From your guest suite, you can take a step out onto your private terrace overlooking clay grooves and church peaks, or you can venture down to the courtyard and laze the afternoon away. You’ll never be too far from turquoise waters lapping the shores and the gentle sea breeze will caress you while you curl up with a good book or take a leisurely dip in the pool.

Puteus Palace prides itself in being an extraordinary culinary experience for guests, so be sure to come with an appetite. Their friendly staff cannot wait to introduce you to the cuisines of the Mediterranean and Croatian specialities in the garden.

About Sustainability

Thyme

Thyme, the treasured herb, indicates that the property follows local legislation with regards to the environment and has implemented a few eco-friendly common practices

  • Puteus Palace has been refurbished using only locally sourced, eco-friendly materials, and all of the room decors were purchased from local artisans.
  • The gardens are teeming with local plant species and you may even get to try some of the spoils in the on-site restaurant.
  • Energy systems around the hotel are both renewable and energy-saving. You will even have a thermostat in your room to avoid energy waste.
  • Much of the in-room amenities are locally sourced, organic, and free of single-use plastics.
  • Puteus Palace truly believes in minimizing waste. For this reason, wastewater is treated and reused, yard trimming is composted and recycling is a priority on site.

Explore the location

Puteus Palace is centrally located on the island of Brač and is merely a hop, skip, and jump to plenty of Croatia’s best attractions.

Hike up Vidova Gora, the highest mountain of all islands on the coast, take a trip to Golden Horn Beach, or visit ancient monasteries all within 20 minutes of Puteus Palace.
