The Zoi restaurant has a romantic setting and a sea view. It is located at the Southern wall of the Diocletian Palace.

Indoor and outdoor settings are available but limited. Thus, it is wise to book in advance. They offer Mediterranean cuisine with a touch of historic heritage.

Their forte is fresh ingredients and great wines, nice-looking dishes, and craft beers. Who could ask for more?

5. Konoba (Tavern) Nikola near Split

Konoba Nikola is the best fish and seafood tavern in Stobrec near Split. The ingredients are fresh and they have a large offer of the best Croatian and international wines. We recommend booking in advance or our Vip Concierge Team can do it for you if you book one of our villas in or near Split for your stay. Later we will give you a recommendation for one that is still free during Ultra.

Best Beaches in Split

Although we recommend sightseeing in the Old Town as it is full of interesting sights, you can also spend time chilling at one of Split's beaches.

Split has a variety of beaches, so there's something for everyone. We recommend the following three.

1. Kasjuni Beach

The first is situated on the slopes of Marjan Hill. Kasjuni Beach has a cool Lounge and Cocktail Bar called Joeˈs Beach Bar. You can relax on sunbeds with a cocktail while you wait for the next Ultra night to begin.

However, we suggest renting a taxi to take you there because it is pretty far from the Youth Park.

2. Bacvice Beach

The second beach is situated on the other side of the Old Town. It is called Bacvice Beach.

It is a sandy beach where you might try the local game of Picigin. It is a ball game where the players toss it between themselves and the aim is not to let it fall to the sea.

3. Beach Znjan

Our final pick is the beach of Znjan. It's a bit further from the center but has a lot of beach bars for chilling.

Currently, it's closed due to reconstruction but in no time, it will be open again and have more amenities than before.

Where to Stay in Split During Ultra Music Festival

Finally, you will need a place to stay in Split. This is where our agency rises to the occasion. One of the villas we would recommend is Villa Tota, situated between Split and Trogir.

Beachfront Villa Tota

This is a beachfront villa with amazing sea views even from the inside of the villa.

Beachfront Villa Tota

It has a modern, open-space interior with 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
