Croatia is a beautiful amazing country, and Nikola was fantastic! He was very professional and provided great insights and arranged the perfect 8 day trip for us. I had done my research and knew what my family would like to do, and Nikola took that input and arranged our hotels, transportation, and booked boat trips, wine tours, and walking tours of old town. Our walking tour guide knew that we wanted to see a couple of specific requests in Old Town and was also aware of some back issues for my husband and catered to our requests.
This is the third time I have used kimkim to book a European vacation for my family of four and each time, we have been really pleased with the service we have received from the local KimKim representatives. Thank you to Nikola (again, highly recommend him) and to kimkim in general.
Hotel Reviews
Excelsior Hotel
Dubrovnik
High end hotel, perfect location, and an amazing beach club area that was perfect for swimming and lunching in the sun. Staff was super helpful and provided a great dinner recommendation and reservation and also provided us boxed breakfast since we were leaving early for the airport. Highly recommend. Also...the views?! Unbelievable of Old Town, Lokrum Island and the coastline.
Authenticity & Character
Showcases the natural beauty of Croatia while being super high end.
Location
super close to old town and walkable but also away from the fray of tourists. Right on the water so easy to swim and have access to the best of downtown Dubrovnik.
Staff
Lovely and helpful.
Cleanliness & Comfort
Beautiful rooms.
Hotel Moeesy, Blue & Green Oasis
Hvar
Unbelievable hotel. Highly recommend. beautiful pool and grounds and the staff were so helpful and lovely. The rooms for our family were adjoining and we had a gorgeous balcony overlooking the ocean. We had beach access as well.
Authenticity & Character
high end hotel that had all the amenities that we liked while being authentic to Croatia.
Location
Loved that we were not in the thick of the Hvar harbor area but an easy walk along the coast to get there. I couldn't have asked for a better location.
Staff
We received fantastic dinner recommendations every night and everyone was lovely and kind and went over and above to be helpful. My daughter left her wallet in the hotel when we checked out and a staff member ran back to the hotel, got the wallet, and brought it to us as we were about to board the ferry. So appreciated and beyond helpful.
Cleanliness & Comfort
The hotel rooms was perfection. I wouldn't change anything.
Hotel Bellevue Dubrovnik
Dubrovnik
Beautiful hotel but when we arrived the beach was closed due to erosion. While that happens, it would have been nice to know that before we arrived so we could have potentially made different arrangements. The hotel did provide shuttle services to other hotels that we were able to use for pool and ocean time. Lovely breakfast and generally the staff was accomodating and kind.
Location
easy access to old town.
Staff
Staff was lovely but not super friendly at least in the lobby.

Private Full Day Boat Tour to Blue Cave & Pakleni Islands
Croatia
Great local guides who knew the area and made some suggestions based on current weather conditions and other tourist activities. We did not get to see the Blue Cave which was a bummer but we so appreciated not going through rough seas to wait in line for a short visit.
Quality of Experience
The Croatian coast is gorgeous and this boat trip did not disappoint. I loved the Calma beach club, the winery and the red rock cliffs that we got to see.
Guides, Drivers and Staff
Boat operator was super knowledgeable, personable, and great with our kids. Highly recommend!
