The Dalmatia region
The arts, heritage and lifestyle, that's central Dalmatia in a nutshell. This makes it a place not to miss - for fun, rest and relaxation while enjoying the 1700-year-old tradition! In the year 305, the Roman Emperor Diocletian (who had practically the entire known world at his feet), chose the centre of Dalmatia as the place to build the country house in which he would enjoy the last ten years of his life. Today the former Imperial Palace is the settled historical core of Split, Croatia's second largest city and the eternally young, noisy and merry centre of the region's tourism and economy that sets the rhythm, style and cheer for its wider surroundings, the smaller tourist destinations, the islands off its shores and the green hinterland heart of Dalmatia.
Excursions A number of one-day trips are available from Trogir:-
SPLIT - A town of classical Roman, old Croatian, Romanesque and renaissance architecture, with a Mediterranean atmosphere. Split is easily explored on foot and is a delightful place to while away a few hours. It is a shoppers paradise, whether wandering through the narrow cobbled streets or haggling for bargains at the large outdoor market. When you need a rest, where better to enjoy a cup of coffee than on the expansive marina looking out onto the islands of Brac and Hvar.
MAKARSKA, the centre of the riviera and coastal area, is a natural choice, with its town square, Cathedral of St. Mark, but above all because of the Franciscan Monastery and its rich collections.
PRIMOSTEN, a gorgeous islet 20 minutes north of Trogir. The prefect place to spend a day exploring.

Trogir / Ciovo area
Trogir is a town and harbour on the coastal strip of the Kastela Gulf, 27 km west of Split, with a population of10,266. The old town is situated on a small island between the island of Ciovo and the mainland; connected with the mainland by a small stone bridge, and with the island of Ciovo by a drawbridge. The town is a UNESCO heritage centre, and the majority of the buildings are from the medieval period. It is a maze of narrow cobbled streets, full of small intimate restaurants, bars and ice-cream parlors. Lovers of cultural and historical monuments, original architecture and art can wander around at their leisure, soaking up the history. The waterfront, with its long promenade, bars and restaurants is particularly popular at night. Indulge in some celebrity spotting as luxury boats come in to moor.

Guestbook for Tudorski
Just wanted to say that we had a lovely holiday in Croatia and enjoyed our stay in your apartment. Buzena was very helpful and the pick up / drop offs were very easy. We had some cold and windy weather but this did not stop us exploring. Every one was very helpful and we were impressed by the public transport system on which we travelled far and wide. ( Split, Sibenik, Markaska). Thank you for the use of the apartment. It was a great place to stay. Our visit has wetted our appetite to see and find out more about Croatia. J.Cockrell, UK (October 2009)
We had the most lovely vacation in Ciovo! This apartment was perfect for us (two adults and five children between 11-18 years) including all the facilities. First of all the view from the balconies was breathtaking! Okrug and Trogir was succesful combination for us: beach, bright water, snorkeling, wandering around the narrow streets of beautiful Trogir, good restaurants and also shopping - what a week! Hilary and Bozena take care of everything you need, thank you for both! And the hill to the apartment was good exercise :). First time in Croatia and we truly loved it! Highly recommended! A. Lyly, Finland (September 2009)
This apartment is modern, clean and equipped to a high standard. It is situated in a quiet elevated spot with fine views of the bay. The air con is efficient for nightime and the appt enjoys a light breeze at times which is very pleasant. Cooking facilities very good and the gas BBQ on the main balcony was a real pleasure to use - meat is cheap and good fish reasonable. Small pool was welcome at times when returning after a day out. Very relaxing apartment and great sunsets to contemplate. Plenty of restaurants and bars on beachfront, Trogir and surrounds. For a treat and wonderful fish try Freddies (turn left at market in Trogir and maybe after a mile or so - signed on LH side). Not cheap but for an occassion its in a different league in our opinion and reasonable house wine by Croatian restaurant standards at £11 a bottle. T. Statham, UK (August 2009)
We stayed at the apartment during august 09. There were four adults and we found the apartment to be very spacious and well equipped, it would easily accommodate six. The bedrooms, especially the master bedroom were large as were the lounge and main balcony from where we had lovely views over the sea and mountains, beautiful sunsets! When we arrived the fridge was well stocked and the local representative, Bovena could not have been more welcoming. The apartment is close to the beach and small beach resort, but there is quite a hill when walking back, especially if it is hot, having said that we are all well into our fifties and we managed! The island has some lovely quiet beaches and it is well worth going off the beaten track. Trogir and Split are both well worth a visit, but use the local ferries, they are cheap, reliable and mean you don't have to get stuck in the traffic when leaving the island. The traffic jams at the bridge were the only problem we experienced during our stay and once you accept that it is going to take you twenty minutes to get off the island they didn't seem too bad at least you got beautiful views of Trogir while you were waiting! We had a great holiday and would certainly go back to this apartment in the future. J. White, UK (August 2009)
WOW!!! What can I say? What a really lovely holiday!! Hilary, thank you so much for allowing us to use your beautiful apartment with such fantastic views in such an idyllic setting. All the family thoroughly enjoyed themselves and I am truly grateful to you and Stephen for letting us share an amazing holiday experience. Your apartment is so spacious and thoughtfully well equipped that it made everything so comfortable, convenient and easy for us. We loved the fittings and furnishings (including the clock!) and the air conditioning was a blessing, particularly last Thursday and Friday with the temperature reaching an exceptional 40C. Hilary, you are so lucky to have Bozena and Mio on site – they are such lovely people and dedicated to making everyone feel very welcome. Despite having their own family guests I cannot over-emphasise how helpful they were to us during the whole of our stay. Mio provided all of the transfers to and from the airport and Bozena was so helpful with information and planning our activities – her English is amazing considering she has been using it only for a relatively short period. She also arranged for a beautiful cake to be made for my daughter’s birthday, which was not only delicious (probably the best cake we have ever tasted) but also absolutely enormous! We shared it with most of the residents of the island! We had a really great holiday, Hilary, and felt really chilled out from the moment we arrived in such a beautiful and peaceful location. I am already really missing sitting on the balcony with a cuppa in the mornings and with a Pimm’s in the evenings!! B. Young, UK (July 2009)
We had a lovely holiday in Croatia. The apartment was super spacious and very comfortable, immaculately clean and very quiet. We really enjoyed evenings on the balcony which was always sunny. Very good value for money even for 2 persons and the lovely Bozena was very helpful and informative. Thank you for a great stay. S. Thomas, UK (June 2009)
The apartment was everything we wished for. We were 6 adults staying there, which was no problem in the spacious apartment. We enjoyed cooking in the kitchen and on the barbecue and forgot all about the rain while dining on the covered balcony. The nearby supermarket and bakery at the centre of Okrug Gornji were very convenient, as were Mr. Bole's scooter rental. We had excellent excursions to Split, Brac and Krka and feel we got the most out of our stay considering the weather. CiCiBela's pizza in Trogir came recommended, and rightfully so. Thanks for a delightful time in Trogir and environs, J. Sveli (June 2009)
We spent a lovely, long weekend in this modern apartment which greatly exceeded our expectations. Although a bit of an uphill walk from the town, beach etc the views when you get there are well worth the effort and we spent many hours relaxing on the balconies, taking in the fantastic views. Ideal for two couples or families who still want privacy as the main bedroom with en suite is separated from the further bedrooms & bathroom by the living area. Transfer & welcome excellent courtesy of the lovely Bozena and her family. Would definitely recommend. S. Mills, UK (June 2009)
Just a short note to let you know what a wonderful stay we had at your apartment. The views from all 3 balconies are fabulous and the location with its easy stroll down to the village was great. The apartment is beautiful, well equipped and very comfortable and spacious, and all the little extras in the store cupboard along with the fantastic dalmation ham and wine on arrival was a lovely welcome. A special thank you for all your assistance in also providing a really nice roomy baby cot and high chair in time for our arrival. J. Ferguson, UK (May 2009)
I stayed with 3 friends at this apartment and we found it to be very clean, spacious and just like the photos. We found the booking to be easy and hassle-free and the owners were extremely helpful and friendly as was the housekeeper who lives in the building. The apartment was brand new, well-equipped and contained all mod-cons. The owners gave us some helpful information about local eateries - by the way, Leonardo's Pizza in Ciovo is fab! The Cove of Mava is a great place to spend your afternoon swimming and sunbathing. I would recommend this apartment to families holidaying or groups of more than 2 as there are 3 large bedrooms which can easily accommodate at least 6 people. We really enjoyed our stay here! M. Lazarus, UK (May 2009)
We had a delightful time in Trogir and absolutely loved your apartment. There was plenty of space for the 6 of us and the views from all 3 balconies were amazing! We spent many a long evening relaxing on the main balcony, soaking in the views while sipping chilled white wine. A perfect way to relax. The location was second to none - a real gem and we will definitely return! Thanks also for the wine and refreshments when we arrived - it was a real treat and very much appreciated after the flight! M. Cronin, Ireland (Sept 2008)
