Podstrana boasts nine kilometres of some of the loveliest pebble beaches in the region. Its delightful harbour plays host to some great low-key music nights, with local singers and food and wine tastings. Keep an eye out for posters and ask locally as these are often announced on short notice.
Podstrana is the perfect spot for a multi-centre stay in conjunction with other Croatia resorts.
Bale is near Rovinj and is one of Istria’s best kept secrets and is set on a hill 140 metres above sea level one can see why the Romans once built a fort here.

While the British may not yet have discovered Rab, the rest of Europe has. Its wooded peninsulas, lush forests and 22 sandy beaches (more than anywhere else in the country), combined with the perfection of the town centre itself, make this without a doubt one of the best resorts in Croatia.
A great value way to get around to explore the area is by water taxi, and the colourful Rabska Fjera festival offers three days of fun and frivolity from July 25th to 27th. With plenty to do in the ...
The UNESCO World Heritage Listed Basilica of Euphrasius with its intricate mosaics is the epicentre of this lovely town, which is situated mainly on the flat.

One of the best-loved resorts in Croatia, its wide pedestrianised waterfront and stylish ambience affords Split the true essence of the Mediterranean.

Its name, Mlini, comes from the local word for "mill", and this is one of the perennial favourite destinations for British tourists.
Just 10 minutes from Cavtat and 20 from Dubrovnik, by bus or water taxi, the Villa Mlini Apartments offer charming self-catering accommodation very close to the beach.
While today more famous for its popularity with celebrities, this stunning place was latterly renowned for its fragrant crops of lavender. Grown on the heaths of the central region, it's still sold at local markets and shops.
Our hotels are located in or very near Hvar Town or in Stari Grad, the best time to visit is in June and September when there are fewer visitors and the pace is slower. The water taxi service can take you out to swim, sunbathe or explore surrounding shores.
The stunning horseshoe-shaped waterfront of Cavtat is reminiscent of the Cote d'Azur in France and is renowned as one of the most picturesque resorts in Croatia. Adding to the “wow factor” is the lovely walking path that follows the waterfront and winds through tiny backstreets up to a wonderful vantage point.
A favourite with the British, it's easy to fall in love with Cavtat at first sight. There's a great selection of hotels and a lovely partly sandy beach in front of ...
Brac is home to the renowned v-shaped Zlatni Rat beach, at Bol, whose tip alters form as the wind changes. Keen walkers love the tiny hamlets and ancient shepherd's trails, and there's a great range of watersports and beach activities.

Attracting families and couples, Tucepi has a superb selection of beach activities and water sports on its lovely stretch of pebbly beach.
The impressive Biokovo Mountains make for a dramatic backdrop for Tucepi and the neighbouring towns of Baska Voda and Makarska. The fine dining restaurant, Jeni's, is just a 10-minute taxi ride away and is renowned as one of the very best in the region.
Straight out of a fairytale, this is a relaxing and secluded destination for couples looking to get way from it all. Easily explored on foot along walking trails that pass through vineyards, orchards and picturesque summer villas, this is not one of the resorts in Croatia for party lovers.
Our featured hotel sells out fast here, so early booking is essential.
Situated in the spectacular central Dalmatia region, Makarska has a fine selection of restaurants, bars and shops – and there's even a fantastic music bar located inside a sea cave! If you're looking for beach activities, water-sports and some evening activity, this is the place.
We have five excellent hotels that would appeal to couples and families.
Korcula Town is like a picturesque mini Dubrovnik, with its ancient ramparts, churches, monuments, tiny cobbled streets and pretty herringbone style layout.
Korcula is one of the largest isles, defined by around 200 lovely coves and a few sandy beaches beyond the town. Make time to catch the vibrant local Moreska dancers, and don't miss out on sampling the local olive oil and excellent Grk wine.
Arriving by ferry to the elegant church spires and pastel-coloured houses always produces gasps of joy from visitors. Cars are not allowed here and the ambience is relaxed and laidback.
The beautiful golden shores of Sunj Beach are located just across the hill from our featured property and can be accessed by boat (charge applies) or on foot. Lopud is one of the most laidback resorts in Croatia, even in high season.
With a delightful buzz in high season, Baska Voda is a truly charming spot that's managed to retain its authentic fishing village ambience alongside some ultra chic beachfront cocktail bars.
There are plenty of excursions and day trips to take in the surrounding attractions, including the famous local 'fish picnic', as well as a pretty white pebble beach with a selection of watersports.
This totally pedestrianised historic walled city is a designated UNESCO heritage site. There are some lovely pebbly beaches located across the bridge on Ciovo, and Split is just 30 minutes away by bus and a relaxing hour by boat, with regular reliable services.
Hotel Palace Trogir is under the airport flight path but there are no night flights.
With parts of it falling within the National Park, the diverse landscape of Mljet is made up of spectacular saltwater lakes, wooded trails and lush vegetation. Comprising mostly flat terrain, it's a great place for walkers.
Within easy access of Korcula and Dubrovnik by fast catamaran (in season), there are a number of quaint fishing villages with several bars and restaurants.
The breathtaking Plitvice Lakes are the most visited attraction in the country, for good reason. This spectacular UNESCO protected area comprises a stunning turquoise patchwork of sixteen lakes and cascading waterfalls over eight kilometres.
There's a regular service of boats and shuttle buses to get you there, along with English speaking staff. (You'll see many instances of the word "slap", which translates to waterfall.)
We have grouped together a few smaller resorts under the title of Zadar Riviera although the area also covers Plitvice we have shown that separately. In this section you will find information on Biograd Na Moru, Vodice and Sibenik.
Zadar Riviera has very well preserved medieval towns to explore and the waters here are crystal clear. There are many beaches and coves along this Adriatic coast a few of the beaches are sandy but most are made up of small pebbles.
One of Croatia’s most beautiful national parks.
There are around 17 emerald-turquoise blue waterfalls tumbling down over limestone sediment resulting in pools in semi submerged forest. This area is usually accessed by boat from Skradin.
Easily visited from Central and Northern Dalmatia regions.
Brela is the sister resort of Baska Voda and one literally leads into the other. Brela is the slightly quieter of the two but still has a good choice of bars and restaurants.
Lovely Mediterranean plants and pine trees are in abundance. Our featured hotel Soline has one of the best locations on the whole coast.
Possibly one of the most beautiful small inland towns in the region with a population of just a few thousand.
Natural parks and caves, picturesque hills, rich flora and fauna, and the excellently preserved small churches and chapels are some of the main attractions. But food and wine feature highly too.
A truly peaceful escape with just two small villages. Pronounced “kollo-chep”, this is the closest island to famous Dubrovnik which is just a 30 minute ferry ride away. We can not guarantee the transfers will be private to Apartotel Kalamota as they use local or the hotel’s own boats.
There are both sandy and pebble beaches and the east and west sides of the island is covered with pine forests and some excellent walking trails.
Croatia’s third city, located on the Kvarner Bay of the Adriatic coast and once a bustling port with a strong maritime heritage of shipbuilding and naval study.
It is the first city that is reached on the Adriatic coast when driving west from Zagreb the capital and some of Croatia’s largest (yet rather undiscovered and breathtakingly beautiful) islands are here: Krk (connected by a road bridge), Rab and Cres.
