Apartment Vana

Apartment Vana Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to Apartment Vana on Kralja Zvonimira street, you immediately get that “this feels right” sensation. It’s one of those four-star places that doesn’t try too hard — just solid, well-thought-out hospitality in one of Split’s most coveted neighborhoods. The building has character without being flashy, and honestly, the fact that there’s parking right here is already a win before you even check in. The attention to detail starts the moment you arrive, with thoughtful touches throughout the entrance and common areas.

The Perfect Split Location

Here’s what I love about this spot — you’re close enough to Diocletian’s Palace that you can walk there in minutes, but far enough away that you’re not dealing with the tourist chaos every time you step outside. The street itself is quiet, lined with local cafes where actual Split residents grab their morning coffee. I mean, when couples rate the location 9.9 out of 10, that’s telling you something real about how this area works for people who want to experience the city properly. You’ll find yourself discovering hidden gems and authentic local experiences just by exploring the immediate surroundings.

The Apartment Experience

The apartment itself feels like staying at a friend’s place — if that friend happened to have excellent taste and attention to detail. Everything’s been recently updated, but they kept the charm that makes Croatian coastal properties special. The kitchen is actually functional (you know how some hotel kitchenettes are basically decorative), and the room layout makes smart use of space without feeling cramped. Large windows let in that gorgeous Adriatic light that makes everything look better. Modern appliances blend seamlessly with traditional design elements.

What Makes It Work

The 9.6 rating isn’t an accident — it’s those little things that add up. Free parking in Split’s city center is practically unheard of, so that alone saves you headaches and money. The neighborhood gives you easy access to both the historic core and the newer parts of town where locals actually live and eat. You can grab groceries at the market, pick up fresh bread from the bakery down the street, or just wander toward the waterfront when the mood strikes. This balance between convenience and authenticity is what keeps guests coming back.

Why Guests Love It

What really sets Apartment Vana apart is how it lets you live in Split rather than just visit it. You’re not stuck in some tourist bubble — you’re in a residential area that happens to be perfectly positioned for exploring everything the city offers. The combination of modern comfort, authentic location, and practical amenities (seriously, that parking situation is gold) creates exactly what most travelers are actually looking for, even if they don’t realize it when they’re booking. This property delivers on the promise of a genuine local experience with all the comforts you need.

Split’s hotels wrap guests in limestone walls, lavender scents, and concierge-led yacht charters.

Reviews of Apartment Vana

• Room with a view – Sandra from Ireland (10/10)

  We thought apartment Vana was in a perfect location, it was less than a 10 minute walk into Old Town. Silvana has a very comprehensive tourist information folder in the apartment for guests to browse through. Her apartment was spotlessly clean and we were so pleased there was a lift up to her floor. There is an amazing view from the apartment window of the harbour and we would highly recommend this place to stay for your time in Split.
