Jun 29 - Jul 11, 2024
We had a wonderful time and everything went well except noted below. We enjoyed all our guides. Our guides to Mostar (Fran and driver) were most excellent, our whole family enjoyed them. Petra and the driver in Dubrovnik were also very excellent. All of our lodging was excellent. Our villa in Split did not have hot water for showers every morning and the hot tub was not warm most of the time so this was very annoying. We also asked for blankets after first day and never received it. Otherwise the villa was perfect for our family and we enjoyed the space very much. Thye last day our ride did not show but calling Tina at 5 am she promptly jumped on this and worked with our hotel to get a ride which we were able to get to airport in enough time. Tina did an excellent job, very professional and thorough.
Hotel Reviews
I stayed at the Art Hotel Kalelarga in Zadar for three nights. The experience was really pleasant. The hotel is right in the middle of town, making it super convenient to get around and explore everything. The breakfast was pretty good, though it was the same every day. Personally, I don’t mind that, but I know some people might want more variety. Overall, it was a great stay and very comfortable.
The villa in Split was amazing in terms of size and location. It easily accommodated our whole group. However, there were a few issues. We didn’t have hot water on some mornings, so we had to take cold showers. The hot tub wasn’t warm for about three days, which was disappointing since we couldn’t use it. Also, the beds only had thin sheets, and despite asking for heavier blankets, they never arrived. There were some minor issues with the doors as well. Despite these hiccups, the outdoor area was fantastic, and it was perfect for our family gathering.
The Hotel Korsal in Korčula was really nice. The breakfast was fantastic, and the staff was very helpful and friendly. The hotel’s location was convenient, and we didn’t mind walking around. The overall experience there was very pleasant, and I’d give it a high rating.
Hotel More in Dubrovnik was just fantastic. The breakfast was amazing, probably the best of all the places we stayed. The hotel is right on the oceanfront, which made for a beautiful and relaxing end to our vacation. The rooms were nice and comfortable, and the overall experience was exceptional.
