The price in this Hilton restaurant is not much higher than old town spots, offering delicious fresh seafood, risotto, and tortellini, with staff like Damir giving great recommendations.

Brought our children here mainly for the beaches and left equally impressed by the history in Split. Diocletian's Palace turned into an unplanned favourite for our son who is obsessed with ancient Rome lately. Elafiti Islands day trip gave the rest of us the relaxation we badly needed.
We split our four nights between Dubrovnik and Split, and it gave us exactly the right dose of history and beach for our whole family. Walking the City Walls with the kids pointing out boats in the Adriatic below was a simple pleasure we did not expect to love this much. The Elafiti Islands trip gave everyone, including the grandparents who joined us, a proper relaxed day in the water. Snorkeling at the Blue Lagoon with my daughter seeing fish for the first time up close is a memory I will keep for a long time. Split's Diocletian's Palace rounded things off nicely, ancient walls doubling as a lively town centre today.
The grandparents managed the City Walls climb better than we expected, though we did take it slow.
The Elafiti Islands day was the most stress-free part of the whole holiday, everyone just floating about without a single grumble. Even the grandparents who came along got their proper day in the water.
Snorkelling the Blue Lagoon with my daughter, watching her spot fish for the very first time, is the picture I brought home. Diocletian's Palace afterwards felt like a giant open-air puzzle for the kids to roam.
Our sons have not stopped talking about the Blue Lagoon snorkeling since we got back from Dubrovnik and Split. City Walls were a proper workout with children but the views made every step worth it. Split's Roman ruins gave the trip an educational edge without feeling like a lecture.
