Pure Cycling Experience - Vélo de route

With little forward planning on my behalf; I contacted Hvar Life with a view to hiring a road bike for a solo or guided ride. They suggested that I go along and see them. We discussed the options,we agreed I would do a solo road ride with the route supplied by HL. As it was a last minute decision I was badly prepared. HL really helped with everything; they went above and beyond. The quality of the bike was perfect and in excellent condition as was all the kit. Their service is outstanding and above all else professional. The route was prepared with a good mix of climbing and took in some of the best views. Very highly recommend!

One of the best bike rental shops we have ever experienced in Europe. Riccardo is an expert with bikes and fitting. We rented road bikes for four days. Very high quality bikes, Cannondale Synapse, with Ultegra Di2 components. Disc brakes. Proper climbing gears. Perfect! He took a lot of time to fit the bikes to our size and needs. The bikes are in excellent condition, smooth shifting, powerful breaks with minimal effort. Just couldn't be better! He gave us very helpful info on roads to cycle throughout the island. Communication prior to our arrival was great. Highly recommend!

Hvar is a cyclist’s heaven! With challenging mountain trails, seaside windy roads, and plush vineyard flatland... it’s certainly an experience to remember. I stopped to swim in many of the emerald green bays to cool off before carrying on with my ride and it was glorious. I rented an electric bike from Hvar Life and I’m so glad I did. It helped me get through the more strenuous climbs. Massimo was very accommodating with my needs which at first where battery exchanges and then a charger and seat adjustments for my husband. He gave me a map of the island which is pretty big and provided excellent customer service over all. There are two Hvar Life shops on the island, one in Hvar and one in Stadi Grad so it’s convenient to rent regardless which side of the island you are. I highly recommend exploring the lesser known villages of Stadi Grad, Vrboska, and my favorite Yelsa. They are very charming and have beautiful places to swim. Of course Hvar is wonderful too with lots of shopping, dining, and more lovely setting. The prices are fair. The bikes are new and in excellent condition. The ebikes I rented were mountain bikes with thick tires that made it easy to ride off road. I wish I could find such a great bike rental shop as Hvar Life in every place I visit because exploring by bike is such an incredible way to see the world. I can’t wait to do it again next summer!

Had a marvellous tour with the owner, Massimo. We cycled 90 km through the mountains! Thanks to the top bikes offered, I had a Pinarello!!!, even a rower with few km bike Training and some kg weight could the tour ‚easily‘... hvar life is a very friendly and professional service! We will com back!

One of my highlights from my holiday was my tour with Massimo. Hvar is such a beautiful island and was great to see on two wheels. Massimo and team are super helpful and the bikes are really good spec. Massimo ensures there is plenty of opportunitys to top up your water bottle.

Big Thanks to the guys in Hvar Life. They made the booking process very easy and the tour with Massimo was excellent. This is the best way to see the island. I rented the bike for a further 2 days and I saw more on the bike than any guided tour in a car. The bikes are in excellent condition Thanks guys, I’ll 100% use again
