Nikola created a great itinerary for our family of 5 - two 50-somethings and our 18, 23 and 26 year old children. We loved our walking tour of Split with Ivana, our boat trip to the blue lagoon and Solta with plenty of swimming stops in between with Mirko. The tour of Hvar was great as we would likely not have ventured far from Hvar Town otherwise and the boat trip to the blue caves was beautiful. Korcula charmed us - Boris was a brilliant sea kayaking guide (we loved the home made Grk and cakes). And Ivana, our walking tour guide in Dubrovnik, was a fount of information. Nikola was in touch throughout and made the whole trip stress free. We will definitely be coming back to Croatia.

Hotel Reviews
Cornaro Hotel
Split

Excellent location for our short stay in Split. Loved the view from our room and thought the breakfast buffet was great. We loved the rooftop bar but were a bit disappointed by the pool, which was very small and cold.

Korcula Hill
Korčula

Our apartment was functional and worked well enough as a base to explore Korcula. The balcony was spacious but as we were on the first floor of the Ruzmarin building our view was blocked by the building in front of ours. We liked the beach club but would have appreciated more than 10% off as hotel guests.

Authenticity & Character
Location
It was a bit further from Korcula Town than we might have liked but the electric cart transfers were brilliant - friendly drivers and always available.
Staff
No real interaction with them.

Hotel Dubrovnik Palace
Dubrovnik

Large and impersonal. Lunch in the poolside restaurant very disappointing as were the cocktails at the swim up bar. Main pool and sea swimming access good.

Authenticity & Character
Bland decor.
Location
Long drive with lots of traffic to the old town.
Staff
Not much interaction.

Adriana Hvar Spa Hotel
Hvar

Loved the view from our window across the harbour, the pool was great, the Thai massage was very relaxing and the location couldn’t have been better.

Ivana was a fantastic guide. So great to get our bearings in Split and so much information re the Diocletian Palace.

It was a walking tour so not really relevant!

Hvar

We loved our guide and particularly loved the “cave” at his family home where we did wine tasting. Would have rated this trip as 5 star were it not for the disappointing restaurant at the end of the trip - not good for vegetarians.

The blue cave was truly beautiful. Loved the swimming and lunch spots too - the Adriatic Ocean around the Croatian island is amazing.

Ivana was great. She pitched things just right - plenty of Game of Thrones information for the fans in our party and lots of other helpful local colour and history. She was with us for nearly 2 hours so way more than the allotted time for the tour.
