Airbnb Croatia: 20 beautiful Croatian Airbnbs, from Split to Dubrovnik
The most charming Airbnbs in Croatia for an Adriatic summer
Offering historic attractions fit for scenes in Game of Thrones, world-class beaches with crystal-clear water and dozens of islands that attract A-listers to their shores, Croatia is a fine summer holiday destination - and if you're thinking of visiting next year, you'll want to browse the best Airbnbs in Croatia.
Croatia is the perfect alternative to the Mediterranean's most popular locations, which, though beautiful, can often feel overrun with tourists, particularly in the summer months. If you've already experienced Airbnbs in Italy or rentals in the South of France for your holidays, we think you'll like our selection of Croatian Airbnbs.
From UNESCO-protected Dubrovnik to island hopping in Hvar, Vis and Brac, Croatia is an excellent place for a holiday that appeals to all, including walkers, cyclists, families and beach-lovers.
There's a whole host of places to stay in Croatia too, whether you'd like to check into a slick apartment on a city break to Zagreb, or a traditional stone house to live out your Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again dream in Vis.
Freshly caught seafood feasts, crystal-clear waters and cobbled streets galore (don't miss the ancient streets of Split and the mighty Old Town walls of Dubrovnik), Croatia is packed with all the ingredients required for an unforgettable holiday. In the summer months, temperatures tend to hover around the mid-20s with 12 hours of glorious sunshine a day, making Croatia the ideal spot for beach holidays and a much-needed dose of Vitamin D.
Airbnbs in Croatia come in all shapes and sizes. You'll find villas with pools, apartments in old towns, traditional stone houses set metres from the beach and light-filled apartments with terraces for you to take in the views. There's a place for every wish and whim in the extensive collection, but we've done the work of narrowing down the best of the best so you can simply peruse and book.
One of the best ways to explore this unique part of the world is island hopping, so you may even want to book a string of Airbnbs in Croatia and ferry hop around. One of the best-loved routes starts in Split (which is easy to fly to from the UK), before heading to Brač, Hvar and Korčula before ending up in the historic city of Dubrovnik.
