Synopsis

Over the past few years, Western Europeans have woken up to the idea that Croatia is not a country of civil strife and only packaged holiday-makers. So, here is our first guide to show the independent visitor to Croatia some truly special places to stay. We look for owners, homes and hotels that we like - and we are fiercely subjective in our choices. "Special" for us is not about the number of creature comforts, but relates to many elements that make a place 'work'. Certainly, the way guests are treated comes as high on our list as the setting, the architecture and the food.

Author Bio
Alastair has been publishing the Special Places to Stay guides since 1994. His travel publishing company was born of a successful tour company that took groups on off-the-beaten-track trips across Europe. An avid environmentalist (founding Avon Friends of the Earth and currently a trustee of the Soil Association), he is keen to encourage B&B and hotels owners' 'green' credentials, by celebrating their use of organic and local food. Alastair Sawday Publishing offsets its carbon emissions and strives in other ways to be as green and as ethical as possible, for example by printing on recycled paper. Lisa Plumridge is an experienced travel editor who has lived in various European cities. She has recently fallen for Croatia and produced this guide with determination and gusto.
