Old Town Villa: Experience Split’s Rich Heritage
We were a party of 12 and found the accommodation to be exactly as described. The host was very welcoming even after our flight was delayed several times he met us late at night at the door to welcome us and help with the luggage and provide a platter of cheese and prosciutto while we chatted about his recommendations for restaurants and things to do during our stay. He also met us at checkout to again assist with luggage. The house had everything we needed. Our group enjoyed sitting outside on the upper patio and the close proximity to old town.

Villa Domnius
What a fantastic stay, the villa is better than the photos it’s a beautiful place, modern with an old Croatian feel. The outdoor oven being a real highlight of the trip, the pool area and the hottub all great. Bozo was unbelievable as a host, we say it’s the little touches make the difference and when I messaged asking if there was any coal anywhere win the villa for the fire, I received two bags at our door within minutes from his place next door, we also got extra check out time on our leaving days as there was a gap between the next guest. To say he went over and above is an understatement. Location is brilliant for Split, and Podstrana has been built up since our last visit to the area, both are within minutes and Ubers are affordable if you’re not driving or drinking. Split stole our hearts again and we would not hesitate the revisit Bozos place.

Luxury Villa Sea and Split view; Split-Mravince
The house was beautiful and spacious with a nice pool in the garden.The host explained us everything and even brought us an homemade tiramisu on our second to final day! Overall it was a great experience and I'd recommend everyone who's looking to visit Split or the region to keep this Villa in mind! Couldn’t ask for better hosts, the most hospitable and lovely people.

Villa Central - Ground Floor
The villa is stunning. Better than the photos. Helena who looked after was there instantly for any questions. We loved it! X

Villa*Tradition&Style" &garden&BBQ in city center
In connection with a public holiday, we spent five days in Split. We were two parents together with our adult children and their partners. The accommodation was perfect for us, with pleasant spaces for cooking and socializing, and a cozy outdoor area. It was close to the harbor and the old town, as well as within easy reach of beaches and the nature reserve on nearby Mount Marjan. An ideal place to stay for a long weekend or a week with a mix of activities. Igna provided us with clear instructions well in advance, shared useful information, and assisted with airport transfers. We are very satisfied.

Private Oasis , Elegance & Luxury, the best view
We had the best stay! House was perfect. We loved the porch and views from porch. It's just a 5 minute walk to Old Town, but far enough away to appreciate the local neighbors and walkways. Great restaurants just down the steps from the apartment. Filip was very responsive and helped organize anything we asked for - private chef, private walking tour. Would definitely stay here again! Huge benefit - close dedicated parking spot steps from home.

Astonishing villa Blue Horizon w heated pool
Even though the way to the accommodation was a bit adventurous, it was worth it for the view and the tranquility. We made nice memories in the accommodation and would recommend it to anyone.

Mediteran dream studio with terasse N’5
The apartment was beautiful and clean, in a great location for getting around the old town (5 minute walk in). the highlight was the roof terrace with 360 views of the city. I would definitely stay again. I would highly recommend

Apartment Amazing View Split
This place is a jewel. The view from the balcony is wonderful - it is tempting to enjoy watching the harbor activity exclusively. But the short walk to the Riva and easy access to the commercial port facilities adds value. A grocery store is downstairs! Helena was very helpful with every question and particularly with guidance on places to see and means to get there in and around Split. Should we visit Split again, Helena's place will be first on our wish list.

Unique duplex Old town with terrace
We had an amazing time staying at Jere & Ivana’s home. Location was perfect in every way. Great access to shops, restaurants and a quick 15-20 minute walk to the ferry boats. The outdoor patio on the top floor was perfect for winding down after a long day of exploring Split. Very spacious bedrooms. Jere & Ivana were always quick to respond. We were very fortunate to have them share their home with us. The home is on the 3rd/4th floor so it may be a challenge for those who may be senior in age but we had no issue enjoying the residence. Thank you both for an amazing stay. Dave

Studiolo - Downtown center location and view
This place is incredible. If you’re a couple visiting Split, stay here. I have trouble imagining a single traveler or couple could find a better place in Split at any price. The location is simply unparalleled.

Studio in Historical Diocletian Palace with Quiet Courtyard
We had a great time. This apartment is in a great location in the heart of the old town. The apartment was stocked with everything you could ever need and Davor & Marina were helpful and always responded to any messages. Highly recommend we hope to return soon.

Luxury Studio Apartment in the Centre ( Kamarin)
Coming from the States, it is so nice to find a place where you can walk everywhere! we loved this spot as dinner, drinks, the Riva, the marina, beaches, coffee and activities were all walkable. The highlights of the spot for us were D16 coffee, Articok restaurant, Diocletian Palace, and having a supermarket in walking distance too. I cooked an awesome meal on our first night and the kitchen was fully stocked. We had everything we needed. Swimming at the beaches to the west and Forest Park Marjan were also great activities if you run or are up for longer walks. Beautiful place!

Arcus Apartment with quite terrace in Split center
We visited Split for 3 days and found the apartment and location to be absolutely perfect for our stay. We were close to everything (palace, port, main shopping street, restaurants and bars) and had the freedom to be able to walk wherever we liked. The apartment is exactly like the photos with modern finishings and very clean. We would definitely recommend the apartment. Thanks again!!

AURELIA PALACE 4 *-old town 2
Amazing location ! Right in the heart of old town split but even with all the restaurants and people right below you, the apartment was nice and quiet with the windows closed. Exactly as pictured, we loved staying here it was close to everything we wanted to do! Would definitely stay again !

~IronGate~ Palace room~ Unesco Location
We had a wonderful stay at Branimir's vacation rental! It was clean and spotless and well decorated. The location was perfect near the hustle and bustles but felt quiet and private with the shutters locked up for the night. Excellent communication and he was nice enough to let us leave our bags in the room for a few extra hours. The only real negative is that even with the instructions and photos it still was very difficult to find. Adding a couple extra photos (like from the main plaza) or a hand drawn map or short video link would have saved us 15 minutes and asking for directions several times. It was well worth the journey though! Highly recommend

Hektor apartment • sea view terrace and garage •
Vanda from the beginning of our booking very informative and helpful. Upon arrival she met and welcomed us and showed us our apartment and recommended local restaurants etc. The apartment exceeded our expectations and a lovely location. We will be back!

The heart of palace Riva luxury apartment
We can’t say enough about this special place and the people who host. We’ve been to a lot of Airbnbs and this one is definitely a top favorite! Sven met us and had saved us a parking spot with his car so we could get free street parking. He helped us with our luggage, got us inside and gave us amazing local reccos. The apartment is in the most beautiful location - next to everything you want and need in Split. And it’s exactly as it looks in pictures - if not better

New deluxe center apartment
We loved Irenas apartment, it exceeded our expectations from the photos especially the outdoor verandah. Irenas husband met us with the keys and kindly helped us with our luggage. The stairs were not an issue for us but may be for others. The apartment is immaculate throughout and Irena left so many nice touches including some goodies in the fridge. It was pretty hot when we're there and we appreciated coming back to some nice A/C and being able to sit out in the shaded area of the balcony with a beer. Everything is walkable from the apartment and there is a small supermarket, nice bakery (left out the door then round to the right) and great focaccia sandwich shop all close by. If taking a taxi to the apartment the taxi cannot get to the door and will drop you about 30meters away which isn't a great problem. WIFI in the apartment was super fast which was appreciated. We did hear some sounds from the neighbours apartment at times but it wasn't a great problem. 5*Highly Recommended!

Central square "Stone Pearl Heritage" Luxury Suite
Robert and Natalija were great hosts. They were easy to communicate with as to location and checking in. Robert met us and took us to the apartment. The apartment was in a wonderful location in the middle of Diocletian’s Palace and very walkable to everything. It was extremely clean and had everything you would need for a long term stay. Unfortunately we only had one night. I would say this is one of the nicest apartments we have stayed in on Airbnb. If we are in Split agin I would definitely stay at Natalija and Robert’s place.

Sunset Terrace |Sea Views,Parking & Chef’s Kitchen
This apartment is beautifully decorated, the view of Split is spectacular, it has a well stocked kitchen, and plenty of drawers and closet space in the bedroom. There are restaurants within a 2 minute walk. Anita, the property manager, was exceptionally friendly and was waiting for us when we arrived with a saved parking spot. She was in frequent communication throughout our stay and had lots of helpful information. Highly recommend.

Olive paradise-heated pool- romantic getaway for 2
A truly beautiful place in Podstrana, the highest house in the location it’s set in, we have felt incredibly lucky to spend ten days at Vinko’s lovely home. The view and terrace space is so beautiful, we didn’t feel like we needed to go and fill our days with activities because it was such an incredible place just where we were! We managed with taxis when we went for meals, never spending more than £10 to visit Split. Vinko was so helpful with recommendations from prior to our arrival all the way through to the end. The inside of the property has everything you need, the space is limited inside but this suited us as we were outside most of the time anyway. Would 100% recommend to anyone seeking a little luxury and relaxation.

Culjak Residence CU3 with Sauna and fire place
It was a wonderful experience staying within the Diocletian palace that too in such a beautiful apartment. Hvorje was proactive and helped us out with the minor AC leakage we had promptly. The entire experience was as advertised.
Your guide to Split
Welcome to Split
At first glance, this Croatian port town on the Aegean Sea seduces the eye with white stone buildings and red-tiled roofs, which glow against the bright blue of the sky and the Mediterranean Sea. As you wander down Split’s narrow streets, you realize that the buildings around you span two millennia, and you find yourself staring upwards, picking out architectural details from the Roman era, the Middle Ages, and the Belle Epoque.
Whether you’re visiting Split at the peak of its bronzed-beachcomber summers or during its moody gray winters, Croatia’s second-biggest city exudes a relaxed vibrancy. The shops and galleries along Marmont Street (Marmontova Ulica), as well as its seafood market, are bustling no matter what time of year. In the warmer months, locals and visitors alike while away the afternoon at the bars and cafes flanking the beach at Bačvice, or settle into open-air restaurant tables along the Riva, the city’s seaside promenade, for a leisurely dinner and plenty of crowd-watching.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Split
The mild Mediterranean climate of the Dalmatian Coast brings plenty of visitors to Split. Like most of the region, winter is gentle here, though no one’s shimmying into bathing suits for a long day on the waterfront — the regular rains and winds green up the hillsides and keep locals indoors. April ushers in a flower-filled spring, and the whole town turns out for Krnjeval (Mardi Gras), celebrating with masked balls and parades. From late May through early September, the dry heat begins. With little rain and temperatures in the 80s and 90s Fahrenheit, Split’s beaches and tourist attractions fill up, and the pleasure boats on the sea proliferate. Croatians and foreigners alike descend on Split in July and August for the Summer Festival, when some of the city’s most scenic sites host open-air concerts and ballets. If you’d prefer to see a more serene side of Split, book one of the area’s vacation rentals for mid-September through October, when the water is still warm, the days are still sun-drenched, but the crowds have gone.
Top things to do in Split
Tour Diocletian’s Palace
Few Roman sites from 1,700 years ago have the immediacy of the spectacularly preserved Diocletian’s Palace. Built for the emperor back when Split was a village on the outskirts of the more populous Salona (itself now in ruins), Diocletian’s fortress and imperial residence has been absorbed into the surrounding houses and shops. You will shuttle back and forth through the centuries as you wander through the ancient Cathedral of St. Domnius, arched passageways and gates, and the peristyle (central courtyard). Afterward, head to the Archeological Museum to peruse hundreds of Roman artifacts.
Take Some Island Time
You could spend a full year exploring the 1,200 islands off the Croatian coast. If you don’t have a year, take a ferry to Hvar or Brač, two of the biggest, not to mention the easiest, to get to from Split. Hvar draws the internationally rich to its azure bays and graceful villas, and you can wander around the medieval city of Hvar or escape in a car to more remote towns and beaches. On Brač, vineyards and olive groves stripe the mountainside on Vidova Gora, which you can summit by foot in just a few hours, cooling off afterward on Golden Horn Beach.
Climb Marjan Hill
Split is situated on a peninsula that juts into the Aegean, and an expansive natural preserve covers its western tip. A large hill divides the park from the residential neighborhoods on its east flank, and as you climb you’ll pass open-air cafes, a Jewish cemetery, and centuries-old chapels. Many locals treat Marjan as an open-air gym, and you’ll likely spot runners sweating up the steps and climbers feeling their way along the rocky bluffs. If you crest Marjan Hill and head back down on its north side, you’ll reach pine-shaded beaches suited for contemplating the sea rather than stretching out a towel.
