When booking of villas in Split Croatia, have in mind that there is small number of villas for rent in Split because Split was not tourist destination 15 years ago. Booming of Split tourist market happened recently. Firstly old town apartments in old stone houses were renovated by its owners who realized there is great rental potential in these old stone houses in the old town center, just like in Dubrovnik. After this trend started, it spread to the new parts of Split, mainly beach areas on the east where a lot new modern apartments were put on the rental market.
