“It’s hasn’t been long since the world switched on to Croatia as a holiday destination. With 2000km of coastline and 1,200 islands set in impossibly azure water, it’s not hard to see why tourist numbers have almost doubled since 2010. Croatia’s islands offer just about every type of holiday imaginable; here are just five.<\/p>\n

Hotel Villa Nora, Hvar<\/strong>
—————————<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Hvar is one of Croatia’s biggest and richest islands, and also its coolest clubbing destination. Its town centre draws in affluent and mildly-famous guests, but it’s also rich with culture. With one foot in Dalmatia history, Hotel Villa Nora<\/a> is a boutique hotel in a restored 14th century palace, once an aristocratic residence. It’s a great base from which to explore the old town. Make sure you eat in the hotel restaurant Lucullus, famous for its extravagant story-telling chef who joins your table.<\/p>\n

Tourist Resort Milna Vis
————————-<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The furthest island from the Croatian mainland was politically cut off for forty years. It’s the resulting resourcefulness of the people of Vis that’s put its seafood on the map. Straight from the Adriatic, delicious fresh, salted and marinated fish is served with creative olive and vegetable dishes. From 1950 until 1989, Vis served as a military base, out of bounds to foreign visitors. Now visitors are seduced by its rudimental beauty, and beachy enclaves like the one where Tourist Resort Milna Vis<\/a> nestles.<\/p>\n

Hotel Bellevue, Mali, Lo\u00e2\u2030\u02c6\u00c2\u00b0inj<\/strong>
————————————-<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Hotel Bellvue<\/a> is a dreamy hotel in one of Lo\u00e2\u2030\u02c6\u00c2\u00b0inj’s inlets, \u00c6’\u00c3\u00a5ikat, with a range of rooms and suites sleeping up to six people. While Lo\u00e2\u2030\u02c6\u00c2\u00b0inj’s best known for its wellness and vitality offerings, the old town of Mali is well geared up for tourists and you’ll find plenty of activities such as watersports, tennis and boat trips.

Hotel Spongiola, Krapanj
————————-<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In days gone by, dipping into the ocean for sea sponges was a source of income for most families on Krapanj. It’s still a thriving industry, and you can buy souvenirs from sponge vendors, or Spu\u00e2\u2030\u02c6\u00c3\u00a6vari.

Hotel Pla\u00e2\u2030\u02c6\u00c3\u00a6a, Pag<\/strong>
————————-<\/p>\n
