4-star hotels in Podstrana
This shortlist covers the 4-star hotels and apartment complexes of Podstrana, a coastal settlement on the Adriatic southeast of Split. It is for travellers weighing up beachfront hotels, self-catering apartments and small resorts, and wanting to match each one to the part of the coast it sits on.
Staying in Podstrana
Podstrana is a coastal municipality in Croatia, on the Adriatic, about 10 kilometers southeast of Split, with several pebble beaches along its shoreline, including Strožanac and Mutogras. Visitors come for the old village with the church of St. Martin, the Roman villa rustica site in Strožanac, the coastal promenade, and hiking in the Mosor mountains. It works as a quieter base for day trips into Split, which is connected by regular bus lines along the coast.
Most of the hotels on this list stand in Strožanac, at the western end of Podstrana, along Grljevacka and Strožanacka: Hotel Eden, Hotel Split, Hotel San Antonio, Beach Hotel Split, Stipe Residence, The Residence, SmartStay Johnny and several apartment houses are all here, between 0.3 and 1.2 kilometers from the centre, close to the long pebble beach and the Split road. A second group sits further east or inland: Mintos Luxury Resort and Beach Villa Bozikovic near Sveti Martin, Apartmani Mutogras on Cesta Mutogras, The One Resort at Put Vucipolja. Couples and short-break visitors tend to favor the Strožanac beach addresses; families are served by the apartments with kitchens and family rooms; the larger hotels with business centers and meeting rooms suit guests mixing work with the coast.
