Luxury Split Holidays

Nestled below dramatic mountains along the Dalmatian Coast, Split is a town filled with unique sights. Ancient ruins overlook picturesque beaches and lavish waterfalls cascade from lake to lake. A luxury holiday in Split offers you the chance to explore the gorgeous landside terrain or to charter a yacht, and island-hop your way through breathtaking isles of the Dalmatian Coast.

Split is the ideal destination for long, lazy strolls. Wandering around, you'll find lots of Roman ruins, like the Diocletian Palace, and the imposing architecture of the Cathedral of Saint Domnius, the world's oldest Catholic cathedral still in use. You can give these spectacular buildings context by learning about their rich past in the city's excellent museums.

You'll also find lots of shops too, from modern malls to local boutiques and open-air markets, as well as lovely local art galleries. Nearby, are the cascading waters of the UNESCO-listed Plitvice Lakes National Park and the tremendous waterfalls of Krka National Park, two stunning nature reserves. The beaches of Split are also a highlight - at Bačvice Beach, you'll find shallow, translucent waters, and at Firule Beach, you'll get to tread sand as soft as powder.

If you like water activities, try jet skiing, parasailing and banana boats. Or why not rent your own boat complete with a captain and head out into the Adriatic Sea? With lots of islets and islands to explore and many must-see sights accessible only by boat, this is one of the best ways to see the charms of the Adriatic. Visit the shimmering caves of the Blue Grotto, the sands and sites of Hvar Island, or enjoy a peaceful desert-island getaway at Susak.
