Croatia Honeymoons made for you
Experience romantic islands, charming cities and world-class food and wine in a luxury Croatia honeymoon
With the sparkling Adriatic coast, clusters of picture-perfect islands and enchanting medieval cities, Croatia has everything you need for a once-in-a-lifetime honeymoon.
Spend your time in your luxury Croatia honeymoon cruising through the crystal clear waters, hopping from island to island on a private boat stopping as often as you like to swim, snorkel or just soak up the sun. Hvar and Korcula are covered in olive groves, lavender and vineyards and dotted with hidden coves. They also have pretty old towns with plenty of character and a liberal sprinkling of great restaurants.
Further inland more natural splendors await, including the turquoise lakes and waterfalls of Plitvice and the crashing cascades of Krka National Park. Couples who like to get out and explore the great outdoors will love the range of hiking, cycling and caving excursions on offer, and for when you want to take things a little slower there are vineyards and wineries to explore and cooking classes to enjoy.
Croatia’s towns and cities are no less spectacular; wind your way through the marble streets of Dubrovnik, affectionately known as the ‘pearl of the Adriatic, and explore the labyrinthine Diocletian’s Palace in Split. The heart-shaped peninsula of Istria is one of fairytale hilltop villages best appreciated from above by taking to the skies in a hot air balloon, a glass of champagne in hand.
Croatia can easily be combined with a trip to Slovenia, Montenegro and northern Italy. Get in touch to start planning your honeymoon in Croatia.
