Apartment in Split
4.92 out of 5 average rating, 159 reviewsCity Centre Sea View
Myself and my husband stayed for 7 nights. We arrived late at night..11.30 pm. and Vedran's son kindly waited and met us at the Church of St. Francis and escorted us to the apartment and showed us how aircon, hot water etc worked. The apartment was exactly as photographed. Lovely big comfortable bed, lots of hot water for showers and sufficiently kitted out kitchen. Beautiful views of Split harbour. Very close to old town and also some lovely little restaurants nearby...try Buffet Fife (worth queueing for) - good varied menu and food and drink reasonably priced compared to other places in Split which can be a bit pricey. No. 12 bus stop close by which goes to Kasjuni and Bene beaches. Check out Promet App for public transport. Also 10 min walk down the Promenade - Riva - for ferries to islands. Overall I would highly recommend this apartment for a stay in Split.

The apartment is stunning, beautiful view, quiet and very comfortable, we felt just like home. Everything has a thoughtful design, well equipped, it has everything that makes the place feels very homey and relaxing. Zeljko is very professional, polite and helpful. Our family had a wonderful stay at Zeljko's apartment and I would highly recommend his place to anyone who's planning to visit Split.

Apartment in Živogošće
4.98 out of 5 average rating, 59 reviewsApartments Vista Mare - Private beach house - A2
There were two of us staying in this wonderful apartment for a few days. We arrived by car and were able to park directly at the apartment. We were received in a very friendly manner and felt immediately comfortable. The apartment was perfectly clean, equipped with everything you could want and everything as described. It's much nicer in reality than the photos. The communication with Filip and his mom was great. The beach and the blue sea in front of the balcony is simply fantastic. We highly recommend this place and will be back for sure. Thank you for the hospitality!

4.91 out of 5 average rating, 173 reviewsSplit Luxury Apartment MARIJA
We had such a wonderful stay here! Mladen and Marija's apartment is just as pictured and sits in the heart of Old Town. Our hosts were super communicative and the check-in directions were clear and easy. We booked this place a few hours before our arrival to Split and within minutes the booking was accepted and we'd received our first communication from them. There's a public parking lot about 3 minutes walk away from the apartment, which made coming and going with luggage super easy. The only thing to be aware of if you're booking on weekends is the noise from the street below as people are walking home from the bars until early in the morning. It didn't bother us because it wasn't constant and it would last a couple minutes at a time. We would stay here again!
Apartment in Hvar
4.93 out of 5 average rating, 135 reviewsBig Apartment
What a lovely, comfortable and picturesque place to stay. Looked exactly as in photos but seemed more spacious and brighter than expected. Comfortable beds, powerful showers, cute balcony and so close to the small beach. Great to have access to the laundry room too. We stayed in 5 properties during our trip to Croatia and we loved this one the best. Don't hesitate, book it!

Home in Stomorska
4.88 out of 5 average rating, 101 reviewsSeafront apartment on island Solta
Our family had the most wonderful time at Darija's place. If you enjoy dipping into crystal clear water right at your doorstep, want to unwind and relax, you will love it there. Stomorska is a charming small village on Solta, less than an hour by ferry from Split. All the people are lovely and helpful. We spent most of our time with long swims, late lunches and aperitifs on our own terrace with a view, ice cream or dinner nearby. Don't miss to do a boat trip around the island. Darija was super responsive and welcoming, and her parents Dado and Jadranka treated us to a fantastic BBQ. All in all: perfect. Thank you!!

5 out of 5 average rating, 33 reviewsSecluded Seaside Holiday Home - Brac Island
The place had everything. It was in a beautiful location. Peaceful. High quality villa, and had everything you needed whilst you stayed. (Very practical too) We would return to this gorgeous place again. Tomislav was super responsive whenever we had a question and he helped guide us to the answer. The villa is a very relaxing place. My kids loved playing in the clear water bay on a paddle board and snorkelling. Afterwards they would have fun in the pool whilst we prepared dinner in a lovely outdoor dining area. The photos don’t really get across how nice it is. Having air con in all rooms was a treat due to the heights of summer. The place was extremely clean when we arrived and we treated this special place like home. I would recommend a car to get to Milna the local marina town, and further a field to visit places. We also took a boat trip out to visit the various islands. It was so pretty, with emerald green oceans and ‘to die for’ sunsets.

This is a perfect location for a couple who want to stay on Brac. A great location - the balcony is a perfect spot for taking in the aterfront and those who promenade along it. Half the nights were there we had dinner on the balcony as it offered a location better than any restaurant. Dubravka's communication was excellent and she could not have been more amenable.

Antonela was great! I didn’t get to meet her in person just because of schedules but I did meet her son and he was great too. The location couldn’t be better and there is plenty of room in the flat to be more than comfortable. She was very communicative and had the inside scoop on things in split. I definitely would stay again for sure. I really enjoyed the place and her hospitality!

Ante and Linda's place felt like a home away from home. They are both friendly, fantastic and very accomodating hosts, the apartment is very good, short walk from the old town, and in a nice neighbourhood with a lovely sight of the sea. We will be recommending this place to our friends and would 100% it recommend to people reading this review.
Condo in Duće
4.78 out of 5 average rating, 9 reviewsFirst line to the sandy beach.
We had a wonderful holiday at Josipa's place. She is a very good host and always eager to meet all expectations. She is always available and immediately helps with any problems and requests. The location of the apartment is great, you walk across the street and you are already by the sea. A terrace where you can sit wonderfully and enjoy the view of the sea is included. Very close are a bistro ( Val), which we highly recommend and a bit further there are different shopping opportunities in both directions. In the apartment is everything you need. The beds are very comfortable, only 1 room is a little clairvoyant... to the nearest neighbors. Everything else is great.
Condo in Makarska
4.98 out of 5 average rating, 83 reviewsBig new apartment very close to the beach
Our stay at Luka's apartment was fantastic! We stayed there for a week, aiming to enjoy some hiking, beach relaxation, and a bit of sun before winter. The apartment was perfect—modern, beautifully furnished, and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location couldn't be better, right next to the city center and stunning Biokovo Mountain, just steps from the beach, making it ideal for both hiking and lazy beach days. Luka was an outstanding host — very friendly, responsive, and eager to help. He shared great local tips for exploring Makarska and Biokovo, which made our trip even more enjoyable. Overall, we had a wonderful experience, and if we ever return to Makarska, we hope Luke's apartment will be available again. We'd love to come back!

Do not hesitate to book this place! Maja was awesome when it came to checking in and out, the place itself was gorgeous and extremely clean! The bed was very comfortable and the shower was not only beautiful but had perfect water pressure! The house is a 20min walk from the center and the views are so amazing the walk feels much less! As for the views, they are to die for! You also have access to the water right in front of the house. We loved this space and will 100% be booking again if we ever come back.

The cottage was very nice, well cleaned and very nicely decorated. It immediately felt like home. We had a large terrace where you got spectacular sunrise in the morning,it was good to spend the afternoon and evening when it got too hot on the beach. The garden is beautifully maintained and is full of flowers that attracts very beautiful butterflies. The Jacuzzi was also great with views of the sea and in the evening you can BbQ ‘n with a nice terrace , sea view. A washing machine is also available. We enjoyed the tranquility, the great panorama and the clear sea for 5 days. Thank you for the very nice holiday, the tranquility in the beautiful cottage. We will definitely be back.
