Split - The Gateway City
- Old Town lofts: EUR 550K (+24% YoY)
- Diocletian Palace UNESCO - supply is permanently capped
- Budget airline expansion: connecting 40+ European cities
Hvar - The Glamour Island
- One of Europe's sunniest islands (2,726 hours/year)
- Luxury yacht crowd driving premium villa demand
- Off-season rental market growing with wellness tourism
