Electricity is obtained through solar cells and energy-intensive appliances use is forbidden. Warm water is inside the building and on the outside shower. There is a solar boiler in the bathroom and hot water is available throughout the day while the outside shower has a capacity of 50 l of hot water.
There is also a berth at your disposal, free of charge. The boat is put into the sea over the shore, as there is no usual bridge for mooring. For this reason, only boats that are not too long and too heavy and have outboard engine can be used there. Our recommendation is to take all the necessary supplies with you, given the fact that the nearest shop in Gdinj offers only basic goods In order to make a bigger purchase you have to go to Jelsa or Sućuraj.

Gdinj consists of several hamlets, which are separated from each other by up to 2 kilometres. At very entrance of the village there is a monument to the victims of the second World War in the shape of an obelisk with the names of the fallen on it. The hamlets of Visoka and Bonkovici dvori are a very interesting rural group. The church of Sv. Juraj (St. George) of early Renaissance style, built in the 16th century, and the cemetery are the most interesting monuments of the village of Gdinj . There is also the church of Sv. Lucija (St. Lucy) in the village.
The name of Gdinj comes from a word ""bditi"" - to stay up late, i.e. to keep vigil, which indicates that Gdinj was an important look-out post, having the same character as Zastrazisce, so it has a long history. Mounds from the Bronze Age can also be found, stretching this far on the plateau from Zastrazisce. These were Illyrian tombs of stones piled up high, and then covered with massive stone slabs. The so called Vela gomila (the big mound), 30 metres in diameter, and the one next to it, slightly smaller, were unfortunately destroyed.
In the village there is the Radovanovic house, a government listed building, with a painting collection, and a library. Gdinj has a cove, Smrska, where there is the Angelini patrician country house.Towards the west is the cove of Kozja with the stronghold of the headman Matija Bartulovic from 1700. It served as a protection from pirates.
South of Brač lies Hvar, the longest island in the Adriatic. This is an island of vineyards, olive groves and lavender. Hvar is without a doubt an exceptional island. It is characterized by pleasant winter and summer resorts, mild climate and abundant subtropical vegetation.
