This trip was a bucket list item for me and Antonia and her colleagues (Nikola) did not disappoint! The biggest struggle I have is finding the time to research the must do's/must stay's/must see's and Antonia took my feedback and planned a much better trip than I ever could have imagined. Every guide she connected us with was great and even exceeded expectations (Dora in Vis was AMAZING!). Using the Trip Plans and Whats App apps made communication super easy while we were in Croatia. 11/10 Would Recommend!

Hotel Reviews
Villa Desideria
Split

A little off the main drag so it wasn't super busy or loud, but close enough that you can be in the hustle and bustle within about 5 minutes walk. Perfect to have a nice restaurant on site too!

A bit small and cramped, but the LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION and Monika made it wonderful!
Boutique Room Kaliopi
Hvar

SUPER CUTE. Clean, comfy rooms. Within about 5-7 minutes walking distance of everything. If you don't do stairs well, this may not be the place for you, though!

Hotel Lapad
Dubrovnik

Don't stay here until the road construction is done. It was a PIA to get there and you're listening to diesel road construction equipment while you're sitting by the pool. Lots of potential though!

Authenticity & Character
Lots of history in the building

Everyone was super friendly, but the restaurant service was terribly slow.
Cleanliness & Comfort
We stayed in the new building and it seemed haphazardly slapped together. The beds were horribly uncomfortable. A slat under my mattress kept falling out so the foot end of my mattress kept falling into the bed. A/C could not keep up. The room would never get below 23C/74F.
