Fitness holiday in autumn

A training week in Croatia as autumn approaches

Late summer and early autumn are a perfect time for a fitness holiday in Croatia. The sea is at its warmest after a whole summer, the heat is pleasant, and calm has settled over Hvar once the summer tourists have gone home.

During your week at Lost Villa you train with a coach every day in our outdoor gym at the water’s edge: functional fitness, strength, weightlifting, running and Hyrox-inspired sessions. Between sessions the infinity pool, the sea and the Fitness Bar are waiting. Accommodation, all meals and transfer from Split are included – you only book your flight.

Many guests travel on their own and the training suits all levels, from beginners to experienced athletes. An autumn week is the perfect way to extend your summer and get your autumn training going.

Good to know

Questions about fitness holidays in September

How warm is it on Hvar in September?

In early September daytime temperatures are usually around 25–28 °C and then slowly drop during the month. The evenings are mild and pleasant. It rarely rains, but the weather can vary.

Is it still swimming weather in September?

Yes, September is one of the best months of the year for swimming. The sea has warmed up all summer and is usually around 22–24 °C.

Why choose a fitness holiday in autumn?

You extend your summer with sun, warmth and a warm sea, but avoid the peak summer heat and crowds. It’s a perfect start to your autumn training – and a lovely break before the darker months back home.

What’s included in a week at Lost Villa?

Almost everything – you just need to get yourself to Split. This is included in the price:

  • Accommodation in an apartment a few metres from the sea, Saturday to Saturday.
  • Breakfast every day – make it yourself in your apartment, all ingredients are provided.
  • Lunch and dinner every day – well-cooked, nutritious food, with water, beer, wine and soft drinks with dinner.
  • The Fitness Bar every afternoon with fresh fruit, smoothies, homemade bars, snacks and drinks.
  • All training – coached sessions every day and free access to the outdoor gym by the sea.
  • Return transfer from Split Airport all the way to Lost Villa on the island of Hvar.
  • Everything else – the infinity pool, the sea, SUP boards, evening activities and a group of people you won’t want to leave.
Are flights included, and how does the transfer work?

You book your own flight to Split Airport (SPU). Once you land, we take care of the whole transfer by car and boat to Hvar. On your booking page you’ll find recommended flight times that fit our transfer departures. Read more about the transfer.

Can I travel on my own?

Absolutely – many of our guests travel alone, and the sense of community from day one is one of the best things about the week. It rarely takes more than a few minutes before the first new friends are made.

You share a bedroom with another guest of the same gender (separate beds). If you’d like your own bedroom, you can book one for a supplement, subject to availability.

What fitness level do I need?

None in particular. The weeks suit everyone – from beginners and regular exercisers to experienced athletes who want to push themselves hard. The coaches scale every exercise to you and find alternatives if you have injuries or niggles. You decide how much you want to train.

What will the weather be like?

Hvar is called “Sunčani Hvar” – the sunniest island in Croatia, with rain on only 3–7 days a month during our seasons. Lost Villa is an outdoor destination: when it rains, meals are served in the apartments and the training is adapted, and there are warm duvets for cooler days.
