Just two minutes walk to the beach (which is mainly occupied by the neighbouring Le Méridien hotel). Very clean and modern rooms with comfortable beds. We stayed five days in a studio room which has a fridge, microwave, egg cooker, toaster, water kettle an a Dolce Gusto coffee maker, and a large balcony. There’s a small supermarket on the main road behind (above) the hotel, about five minutes away. There are also many restaurants, either on the main road or in both directions on the beach. The ladies at the reception were very nice and friendly. Split is approximately 10 kilometres away and can be reached by public bus from the main road or by BOLT/UBER services. All in all, we can recommend the Residence for a beach vacation.

The Residence hotel has only a minuscule pool with a few (6) sun beds and no shade. Neither do they have their own beach area with sun beds and umbrellas. All these services/facilities are owned by the neighbouring Méridien hotel. If you want a real pool and beach facilities, you have to register there. In June 2022, they charged 300 Kuna (40 €!!!) per person per day for guests who stay at the Residence- which in my opinion is impertinent. Everyone can use the beach though but you have to bring your own towels, sun chairs etc. And please note, there’s no shade - bring your own umbrellas!!! The Residence hotel should also offer these services for their guests, either for free or a nominal fee.

The apartment was beautiful. Fabulous views and cleanliness was excellent.

The Residence Hotel is not a hotel in the traditional sense. There was a breakfast in a small restaurant on the ground floor of the building which was not accessible from reception. There was no access to food or cold drinks outside of breakfast hours. There were no hotel facilities. On the last day we discovered that there was a library in the basement. It was not advertised or talked about by the staff.

Apartment was clean and well equipped.

This is not a Hotel. Broom cupboard reception, no bar, no restaurant apart from overpriced breakfast. Swimming pool that is kids paddling pool located in the car park. Access to a beach where the attendants from next door hotel move you on bruskly if you don’t pay their €40 per person daily charge to use sun umbrella. Total lack of info on any local amenities as well as rip off prices for excursions. Booked for a week but moved out after 2 days.

really comfortable- top standard

pool very small and shallow

Clean, spacious, great location!

We were not asked for a payment at the time that we checked in. We assumed that there was already a card on file. At around midnight before our 6 am flight, we were woken up by staff frantically requesting a payment. The staff was aware of our early checkout because they were helpful at scheduling an early airport taxi at the time of check in.

it was clean

too much like a concrete jungle, no view to speak of, poor signage

The location is perfect, the beaches in Podstrana are beautiful! The hotel has distance from the activities and guests at the Hotel Lav (Meridien), so it was quiet & allowed me to sleep with no problem. I definitely recommend staying here if you're visiting Split, its nice to decompress in Podstrana in the morning and charge up before heading out at night.

All good. Lovely, well equipped and clean flat with a full width balcony and sea view. We had one with 2 bedrooms/bathrooms. It also had a sofa bed suitable for one person and we requested another small bed for a child. Flat had dishwasher and washing machine, well equipped kitchen, towels were regularly swapped. Location great for famies with small children or couples looking for a beach break in the sun. Hotel reception arranged transfers to and from the airport and also printed off testing documents that we needed for travel.

This place was amazing, I cannot recommend it enough! We stayed In he three bedroom apartment on the top floor and it was beautiful! Wall to ceiling floors with the most fabulous sea view! The apartment was immaculately clean and very beautiful. Nikolina and the other girls who work at the hotel were amazing and so helpful. They would arrange for their driver at the hotel to take us to Split and collect us whenever we wished too. Podstrana was a really pleasant surprise, the beach is on the doorstop of the hotel and a couple of really pretty restaurants are beachside too which in the evening have the most beautiful sunsets. We were a family of 4 two adults one daughter 21 and the other 13 and this holiday was great aa it had just the right amount of balance between quiet and peaceful and then lively when we went to Split. We will definetely return..

Nothing!

The rooms and apartment were excellent, better than expected. The staff were very helpful and friendly

I thought there would be more facilities. Just the small pool.

the location, parking, very comfortable and spacious room

the blinds didn’t go all the way, so in the morning dawn light can wake you up

cosy and spacious room, bathroom floor heating, parking, good location

TV didn’t work

Great location, friendly hotel stuff ,very helpful,everything was perfect, airport transfer, thank you once again for great holiday ,great sea view...

The apartment was great. Very comfortable place with a huge balcony, along with a sea view. The bed was also very comfortable and it was nice to sleep, even during the warm nights, due to large balcony windows.

The flat could maybe use some design refurbishments since it is over 10 years old which is a lot given the price range of the apartment. The shutters didn't close all the way.
