Historic Renaissance Villa

Hotel Agava Split is a restored Renaissance-era noble house in Split's oldest neighborhood, Varoš, a 5-minute walk from the Riva promenade. The building features a hand-cut stone staircase, brick and stone arches, and an arched stone entrance with a terrace. Rooms include original art by local artists, memory foam mattresses, and views of Split's red-tiled rooftops or the waterfront.

Rooms with Views

Choose from Deluxe Double, Triple, or Penthouse Suite accommodations. The Penthouse Suite offers panoramic views of Split's waterfront, islands, and distant mountains. All rooms include Egyptian cotton linens, rain showers, soundproofing, flat-screen TVs, and mini-bars. Some rooms face the courtyard or Marjan Hill.

Explore Split's History

The hotel is steps from Diocletian's Palace, a UNESCO site with 1,700 years of living history. Nearby attractions include the Cathedral of Saint Domnius, Jupiter's Temple, and Marjan Hill park. Walking tours of the palace include admission to historic sites.

Beaches & Day Trips

Bačvice Beach is a 5-minute walk from the hotel. Ferry connections to islands like Brač (home of Zlatni Rat beach) and Hvar are nearby. The Makarska Riviera, Klis Fortress, and family-owned wineries in Kaštela are within a 30-minute drive.

Family-Run Hospitality

The Mišerda family, known for historic restorations in Dalmatia, operates the hotel. Staff assist with luggage (no elevator in the annex), wine tours, and private guides. Breakfast is served at a nearby seafront bistro.

“This boutique hotel stands out for its enviable location, mere steps from Split's vibrant waterfront and historic Diocletian's Palace, while maintaining a distinct, family-run atmosphere; the pool is a welcome addition given the setting. In my opinion, the blend of restored Renaissance architecture with modern comforts makes it a compelling choice for experiencing Split's charm. It's a place where location meets character.”
