Are all-inclusive properties in Croatia safer than non-all-inclusive?

Croatia, being in the heart of Europe, is generally a very safe country. For this reason, in Croatia, you won’t find closed-off out-of-town all-inclusive resorts where the only locals you see are the ones who work at the resort.

In Croatia, public spaces within the all-inclusive resorts and hotels, are open to locals as well. Remember that in Croatia all beaches are public and there is no way to forbid local people from using them.

All-inclusive properties in Croatia are as safe as non-all-inclusive resorts and hotels in Croatia. They aren’t safer, just as safe.

Croatia all-inclusive resorts and hotels: what to expect

All inclusive Croatia, Illustration for Pinterest
Pin Me For Later!

All all-inclusive hotels in Croatia are located along the coast from Umag to Dubrovnik and on the islands. You won’t find any of them in Zagreb or continental Croatia.

The majority of Croatian all-inclusive resorts and hotels are in Istria. Other destinations include islands (Krk, Losinj, Brac, Kolocep), Dalmatia (Zadar, Pakostane, Split, Makarska Riviera), and Dubrovnik Riviera (Dubrovnik, Cavtat, Peljesac).

The majority of all-inclusive hotels in Croatia are within walking distance of the nearest town.

Croatian hotels and resorts aren’t closed-off properties accessible only to tourists and staff. Instead, they are open to all, and locals come around to swim at the beach or have a drink. In Croatia, all beaches are public and they remain accessible to everybody.

The majority of all-inclusive hotels in Croatia either belong to a Croatian hotel chain or are independent properties. You won’t find any all-inclusive international brands.

The only other hotel brands besides Croatian ones are TUI Blue, a UK-based tour operator that applies its standards on locally owned and managed hotels; and Falkensteiner, an Austrian-based hotel brand present in southern and eastern Europe.

There are many all-inclusive family resorts in Croatia. In fact, all-inclusive resorts and hotels are often a synonym for kids-friendly hotels. These two terms are often used interchangeably. However, hotels under the TUI Blue brand are the only adults-only all-inclusive properties in Croatia.

The majority, if not all, all-inclusive resorts and hotels have direct beach access.

The service in these properties is usually very good.

Meals and Drinks

There are basically two types of all-inclusive hotels in Croatia: all-inclusive and all-inclusive light. All-inclusive is pretty straightforward, you get five meals a day, an open bar all day long, and all programs and facilities are included in the room rate.

All-inclusive light, on the other hand, we need to explain better, as this is mostly the formula you’ll find in the majority of Croatian all-inclusive hotels.

All-inclusive light will get you three meals a day, as well as a selection of drinks, included free of charge during the meals. Some hotels also have an afternoon snack or ice cream for children in the mini club. Otherwise, there aren’t afternoon or midnight snacks for adults, nor free drinks throughout the day.

The majority of all-inclusive resorts and hotels serve buffet meals. And only some of them give the option to the guests to upgrade to the onsite a la carte restaurant once during their stay.

Otherwise, if you would like to have a served dinner, you’ll need to pay extra.

A selection of drinks usually includes unbranded soft drinks, draught wine and beer, local liquors, and water. Should you feel like having a Pepsi or Coke, or your favorite beer, you’ll pay extra.

The quality and variety of food are usually good, and it depends on the hotel category. Eg. 4-star properties usually have a better buffet than 3-star properties.
