If you’re looking for the perfect short luxury Croatia family holiday, look no further! This 5-day itinerary will take you to some of the best spots in the country, from stunning coastal towns to awe-inspiring national parks. Croatia is a great destination for luxury family holidays, and a great place to celebrate a birthday or anniversary. So whether you’re looking to explore medieval villages or relax on the beach, this Croatia itinerary has something for every member of the family.


Day 1 – Sibenik and Zrmanja Canyon


Start your Croatia holiday in the medieval city of Sibenik! This charming town is located on the Dalmatian Coast and is full of history and culture. Stroll through the Old Town, visit the Cathedral of St. James, and enjoy some delicious Croatian food.


In the afternoon, take a boat ride through Zrmanja Canyon – an amazing natural wonder. Here you can use the afternoon for hiking and exploring. In my opinion, Zrmanja River is among the most beautiful in Europe. This breath taking canyon is certainly one of Croatia’s most popular natural attractions.


Day 2 – Plitvice National Park


Spend day two of your Croatia vacation in Plitvice National Park. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is a must-see for any nature lover. With its crystal clear lakes, cascading waterfalls, and lush vegetation, the park is truly a sight to behold. Take a hike through the park and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere. This day can be as adventurous or slow paced as you like.


Day 3 – Krka National Park and fast ferry to Hvar


Spend most of the day at Krka National Park, Croatia’s most famous national park. The vast area is mostly unaltered and is one of the most preserved natural ecosystems in the world. Here you’ll find stunning scenery, hiking trails, and a variety of wildlife. If any members of your family are feeling less energetic, a boat trip through the park (included in the entrance ticket) is a great way of seeing much of the Park. Be sure to take a dip in the park’s famous swimming holes. Other recommended highlights include the small island of Visovac and Roski Slap waterfall.


In the late afternoon, take the fast ferry to Hvar, Croatia’s most popular island.


Day 4 – Hvar


Spend your day on Hvar Island exploring all that this beautiful place has to offer. Start by visiting the old town of Hvar, then head to one of the many beaches for a swim or some sunbathing. Hvar gets almost 2,800 hours of sunshine per year!


This luxury beach club Hvar is only a short walk from the centre of Hvar Town and is a glamourous way of spending a day in Hvar. After a dip in the Adriatic straight from the beach club, you may also dine here during the day, as well as relax on one of the sunbeds or in one of the cabanas or suites. Luxurious relaxation – the perfect way to celebrate!


Day 5 – Dubrovnik


End your Croatia holiday with a day in Dubrovnik, one of Croatia’s most popular tourist destinations. George Bernard Shaw was enchanted by this beautiful city, about which he said “those who seek paradise on Earth should come to Dubrovnik”, as well as, famously, describing it as “the pearl of the Adriatic”.


This stunning city is full of history and culture, and is a great place to relax and enjoy the Mediterranean atmosphere. It’s the perfect place to people watch as you enjoy a delicious meal to celebrate a birthday or anniversary. Be sure to walk the city walls, visit the Cathedral of St. Blaise, and explore the stunning old town. There’s plenty to see and do in Dubrovnik, so you’re all sure to have a great time!


Croatia is a country full of history, culture, and natural beauty. This five-day itinerary will take you to some of the best places Croatia has to offer and has enough variety of place to keep all of the family happy.
