A picturesque medieval town set within 13th century walls, Trogir nestles on a tiny island with bridges linked to the mainland. With its romantic seaside promenade, the knotted maze of cobbled streets, its sunswept pebbled beaches and beautiful Renaissance architecture, Trogir is the perfect place to go for a family seaside holiday. Our collection of the best places to stay in Trogir has something for everyone from chic boutiques to romantic hideaways.

While walking the labyrinthine maze of dusty and warm cobbled streets, it is easy - and rather fun - to get completely lost. Tucked away in side-alleys and nestling down hidden roads stand gourmet pizzerias and cute cafes, while on the long and bright seaside promenade, you'll find the very best seafood restaurants the Dalmatian coast has to offer. A hodgepodge of elegant Liberty-era limestone buildings and Renaissance churches and palaces line the way, like the spellbinding Cathedral of St. Lawrence - arguably one of the greatest Renaissance buildings in Croatia - built in the 13th century.

There's much to do in Trogir. Yachts and sailing boats bob gently in the scintillating bright blue waters, and boat trips to enchanting nearby islands - complete with secluded beaches and hidden pebbled coves - can be booked in town. The island of Ciovo is one such example. Be sure to also explore the old medieval walls - constructed between the 13th and 14th centuries - still visible on the southernmost part of the Old Town, remnants of the bloodthirsty history of Croatia, that saw Trogir change hands countless times, from Hungarians and Venetians to the Austrians and the French.
