“Agree with the positive reviews”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 September 2010

We just came back from a week in Croatia where we spent the last night at Villa Stina.

The positive reviews describe the establishment correctly, although words perhaps must fail to do full justice to the friendliness and helpfulness of Ivana and Mario! That is perhaps the single most important charateristic for a place like this ...

Given the location the sound level during the night was surprisingly low, although, understandably, less so in the late evening and morning. Our only concern worth mentioning would be that the basement/ground floor room we stayed in got very clammy with moisture and unfresh air during the night, in spite of us having the window tilted open as well as the bathroom door open. We did not run the a/c (which appears to be of the standard re-circulation type) for noise reasons (not louder than normal). During the early morning the air quality suddenly improved - we can just speculate that a change of wind facilitated the circulation of air. But of course, it might have been myself who didn't understand how to get a reasonable exchange of air in the room!

"Even the Sun has to live with a spot!"

“Great Location, high standard of accommodation and very helpful owner”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 September 2010

We've just returned from a great holiday in Croatia and Split was our last destination. Villa Stina is perfectly located to see all the cultural sights (5 mins walk from the Palace) but also only a short walk to the main city beach as well. The rooms have been refurbished to a really high standard, but also retain a lot of the authentic feel of the older buildings in Split. The owner couldn't have been more helpful and really made the stay enjoyable and as easy for us as possible. Would definitely go back!

“Perfect location in beautiful Split.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 October 2009

My husband and I stayed here for 10 nights in September. We were in the studio, which has a small but functional kitchen. The owners, Mario and Ivana, could not be helpful enough and kept the place spotless. The studio itself had a very large, comfortable bed and flatscreen TV with the best range of channels we've seen abroad (where you normally only get CNN and BBC News). It was tastefully furnished with exposed stone walls and dimmer lights. Location wise, this apartment is perfect. Split seems difficult to find accomodation in and is expensive. Villa Stina is in a quiet residential area, 5 mins from the Riva, Old Town and Diocletian's palace. It is also 5 mins from the ferries, train and bus station, has two good supermarkets very nearby and is also very close to the fruit market. We went to Bacvice beach most days (only 10 mins from Villa Stina) and had a brilliant time in Split. Thanks again to Ivana and Mario for making our time here so enjoyable and for all their help and advice!

“Beware when booking this place”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 September 2009
5
people found this review helpful

We booked a room in early June for our stay in September via their own website and received full confirmation of our stay. When we arrived in Split we were directed to an accomodation agents office where we were advised they had no room available but we could be put up at a 4* hotel instead. When we queried this it turned out the hotel was a business hotel over 2km from the centre. Voicing our dissatisfaction we were then offered another 2 sub standard rooms and told Split had no other accomodation available.
We are concered that the booking was a front for the accomodation agency to just secure a booking under the wrong premise making one suspicious of the motives to channel you to accomodation of their choice!

Yes, it is true - in 5 years this lady was the one where the overbooking happened to me. My fault. But NO! Lady, we didn't guide you to an agency and we are no "criminals". When she arrived I was aware of my mistake. Apologizing over and over again, offering another 4 star apartment in the center, a more expensive hotel in the palace, free taxi and all other solutions didn't help. And Lady, you chose the hotel which was 2km away - NOT US! Please stay real when writing reviews as it is simply unfair. Thanks
