We stayed at Hotel Agava for a week recently during August. We chose this hotel for its ideal location as it is walkable to the main Old Town of Split and because it also has a swimming pool. We opted for the breakfast included option that was at a nearby restaurant/cafe called Brasserie on 7, which provided a good variety of breakfast options on the menu and was a very good and new experience for us with good food and friendly staff. Our room was on the ground floor and right next to the pool, which was requested due to the other member of my party's mobility issues and was facilitated by the hotel staff in advance. The staff at the hotel were all lovely, very friendly and helped with any questions we had. Our only criticism/recommendation was that another mirror with lighting was needed in the main bedroom above the desk/dressing table. Also as our room was next to the pool (room 8), we didn't have any personal/private outdoor space to be able to dry swimsuits and towels and there was no drying rack in our bathroom. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Hotel Agava and would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to others visiting Split.

A beautiful hotel in an ideal location.

The hotel is lovely and the staff could not have been more helpful or friendly. It's location in the old town is unique and beautiful. It is ideally situated for visiting Split and is an easy walk from all the main sites. The pool was lovely. The room itself was clean and comfortable, though the cot bed was not as comfortable as might have been wished, but it was adequate. I would definitely stay here again on my next trip.

Rocky start, but got much better

We had an interesting 2 night stay. It didn't start out great, but got better. Our room in no way looked like what I had purchased from the photos. I paid for a large, superior room with a king bed, hard wood floors and lots of light, (I thought). What we got was; a queen bed in a small room with carpeting. It had a couple windows with nice views, but we felt that the cost should literally be half as much. The manager and I went back and forth and we thought about leaving. However, we didn't have time to find a new place, the location seemed great and we were tired and wanted to settle in. She gave us 2 days of free breakfast to help remedy the issue. After that - we had a very friendly host for the rest of our stay and found the room quiet and comfortable enough for our 2 nights. Additionally, the location was really great and central. It turned out the breakfast was much more than we expected, at a restaurant that was a 5 minute walk away. It was a delicious 'brunch level' menu of large, very well prepared breakfasts that fueled us up for the whole day. Net net: I would recommend this small hotel, but wanted to note that the photos might not (at all) match what you get, so be forewarned! They should really consider fixing the photos.

The staff assisted us with check in including parking our rental car in a safe lot and transporting our bags to the hotel. The front desk staff were polite and informative and took the time to explain the history of the area when we showed our interest. We were provided dining options and sightseeing options on the local map. The room was clean and the pool was a bonus as most hotels in the area do not have this option. Our stay was fantastic!

Possibly the nicest hotel we've stayed in. Ideal position for visiting Split, close to Old Town and Palace for sightseeing with lots of nice restaurants and bars also close by. All the staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful and the property was really quaint with lots of character. Can't recommend this property enough.

This is a good location, pool area very nice, also,upstairs terrace. There was no free parking and no valet parking as stated on Expedia. We didn’t get the superior room w 3 beds and view we paid for. But they finally changed our room for last night and compensated for the error. Rooms are quite small, and few amenities, ie no ice no milk.

What a gem! This boutique hotel is in the perfect location in Old Town Split. You can walk to many restaurants and shops and are even close to the beautiful boardwalk. The room was perfect for what we needed. Very tastefully and simply decorated. And the staff was very kind. We met the owners and shared stories. And the pool was perfect for cooling off. If you get the breafast option, you won't be disappointed. It's at a near by restaurant called Feel Green which we ate at everyday (we didn't get the breakfast option). The food is healthy and filling.
