No wonder Croatia has hurtled to the top of Europe’s most coveted holiday destinations in recent years, as this once little known tourist spot has hooked visitors from across the continent with its many wonders.

One of the things we love most is how manageable it is for those looking to get out and explore. Spend the morning sunbathing by the Adriatic before jumping onto Dubrovnik’s cable car for an epic view of the city; island-hop on a boat trip then come ashore for a tour of Croatia’s vineyards; wander the pretty streets of Split on the Dalmation Coast and take a dip on the Makarska Riviera. There’s much to inspire, all against the backdrop of chic hotels, great food and friendly service.

What’s more, with plenty of flights on offer Croatia is easy and good value to get to for a European beach holiday.

So save time scrawling the internet for the best hotels in Croatia, and instead take a look at the ones we’ve sourced and know tick all the boxes.
