Enter Cast Away – Cast Away is an off-the-grid, back-to-basics eco campsite that offers ten spacious tents in the middle of nature, a stone’s throw away from two beautiful beaches.

Cast Away’s beginnings have a beautiful story, too; Didier Van Bellinghen was born in Belgium to a Belgian father and Croatian mother.

His mum had always dreamed of having a small guesthouse on one of the Dalmatian Islands in Croatia; they found the perfect location on none other than the gorgeous island of Hvar. Sadly, his mum passed away just after construction began; 30 years later, Didier returned to fulfill his parents’ lifelong dream, and Cast Away was born.
