Split’s UNESCO-listed Diocletian’s Palace is an easy day trip by road or boat, so you can pair city culture with laid-back beach time.

• Beach: approx. 50m
• Nearest bars, shops and restaurants: approx. 500m

Omis, Split and Dalmatian Coast, Croatia

Start the day in Plaža, the main buffet restaurant, with a generous spread of international favourites and Croatian specialities, plus live show cooking at breakfast and dinner. In the evenings, expect grilled fish, Dalmatian classics and crowd-pleasing comfort dishes – ideal if you’ve worked up an appetite exploring Omis.

At lunchtime, many Full Board guests head for the Sunset à la carte restaurant or the pool bar for a three-course set menu, while the beach bar keeps you topped up with drinks and light bites between dips.

Bars & venues
• Sunset à la carte restaurant – international and local cuisine for lunch and dinner; sea views, highchairs available, typically open mid-April to early November (subject to occupancy).
• Plaža buffet restaurant – international buffet for breakfast and dinner with show cooking, usually open mid-April to early November.
• Beach Bar Plaža – right on the sand, open roughly 10:00–18:00 from late April to early November (seasonal/occupancy dependent).
• Rooftop pool bar – cocktails and chilled drinks with a view, usually 09:00–23:00 during the main season.

A smart dress code may apply in the evening. Restaurant opening times, reservations and any supplements can vary by season and board basis; check the latest details with reception on arrival. If you’re weighing up dining styles, this guide to what board and meal plans typically include is a useful starting point.

The outdoor pool is the hotel’s social heart, set above the road so you still catch those big sky-and-sea views. There’s a dedicated children’s section so families can splash together, plus a whirlpool area and plenty of sunbeds.

When the weather’s cooler – or you just fancy a more tranquil swim – head indoors. The heated indoor pool, also with a children’s section, sits beside the spa and is usually open from late March to the end of October. Pool towels are complimentary, which lightens the packing list.

Across the road, the sandy beach rolls along the bay, with sunbeds, a beach bar and playful water swings in the shallows. The sand and gentle entry make it particularly good for younger swimmers, while the mountain backdrop makes every dip camera-worthy.

In keeping with the hotel’s contemporary feel, the spa is sleek and soothing, featuring:

• Sauna, steam room and Turkish bath
• Whirlpool
• Heated indoor pool with children’s section (typically April–October)
• Massages and beauty treatments (charges apply; minimum age 12 years)

If you like to balance spa time with a workout, the air-conditioned gym is equipped with cardio machines, a free weights area and fixed strength equipment, ideal for a quick session before breakfast or sunset.

Other handy touches include a staffed reception offering concierge services, currency exchange (local charge) and luggage storage – useful if you’re arriving early or leaving late. Day trips along the coast or up the Cetina River can easily be arranged locally.
