The apartment is just a 2 minute walk to an entry into the old town and palace. It was clean and quiet and had a great common area for the 4 of us. If we come back to Split, we will definitely stay here again.

This beautifully renovated historic building/apt blends timeless charm with modern comfort while preserving its original character. Ideally located between the picturesque Old Town and the sparkling beach, it offers guests the best of both worlds. Stroll through the charming stone streets filled with restaurants, cafés, and cultural landmarks, or enjoy a short walk to the crystal-clear sea for a relaxing day by the water. Its unbeatable location makes it the perfect base for exploring the city's rich history while enjoying the beauty of the coastline.

Wonderful apartment in Split! Beautifully decorated and the beds were very comfortable. Well stocked kitchen. Great communication with the host - they were readily available before and during our stay. As a side note - Outdoor courtyard was not usable, because of overgrowth of bushes and weeds.

We loved this apartment! The location is absolutely perfect - a quick walk to the palace and all of the wonderful historic sites, restaurants, shops and groceries. The apartment was extremely comfortable with plenty of towels, kitchen supplies and little extras throughout to make it feel like home. There was air conditioners/heaters in each room allowing for maximum comfort throughout. Our host was absolutely exceptional, checking in on us and making us feel very special over the Easter holiday. We will definitely be staying here again when we go back to Split. Don't hesitate booking this apartment!

Amazing location, not to central, not too far away

This is a great place to stay and explore split. You are just a 5 min walk away from the city center, so you are not bothered by the crowds, but close enough to experience the city. Super nice and clean apartment with well equipped kitchen and very nice interior design.

Excellent apartment of high quality and which had a great location to explore Old Town Split. It had all the amenities we required as a family of four - great lounge, kitchen area with all the items we needed and two good bedrooms and bathrooms. Very good WiFi, TV, audio, and useful to have a washing machine too. Communication with Lada who also met us on arrival was very prompt and professional. We really enjoyed our stay here and would recommend to anyone staying in Split.

If you’re happy with the photos you see for this listing you’ll be even more pleased in person. The location is ideal for exploring the harbor and all split has to offer in the Port area. The bathrooms are lovely with plenty of hot water. The towering ceilings and beautiful interior stone walls with lovely windows makes this listing stand out. It is clean and a perfect location for your adventure in Split, Croatia. I would definitely rent it again.

Beautiful home in perfect location

We had a wonderful three days in Split. We found street parking easily, our hostess helped us check in right on time, and the place was perfectly appointed with everything we needed. She quickly answered the few questions we had and recommended great restaurants for us. Our kids loved the small park next door and it was such an easy walk to pretty much every location we wanted to see. We'd absolutely come back to this cozy flat!

Beautifully appointed, great location, superb communication with hosts. Parking a bit of a challenge but host provided good details on options. We forgot some items and Lada was very kind in helping to arrange a time and location to retrieve them. Very generous in her willingness to help solve a problem we had inadvertently created.

The apt is absolutely beautiful and perfect for two couples or a small family. It isn’t easy to find a 2 bath. 2 bedroom place so close to Old Town but this place fit our needs exactly. The extra was the charming building and well designed decoration. Checking in and out was quite simple and easy. We highly recommend this location, and apt.

Beautiful apartment very clean and had everything we needed. The apartment was quiet despite being centrally located. We walked everywhere. My only suggestion is to make sure guests understand that parking is nearly impossible and very confusing. We did not need a car since we could walk everywhere. Everything else was excellent!
