March 30, 2023 - It's March, the sun is out, we might just be safe from the notorious bura, and Split is looking as magnificent as ever. To quote TCN's own Paul Bradbury, Dalmatia is a little like malaria. Once it gets in your blood, you are screwed for life. And once you visit it during the shoulder season, you're screwed in an entirely new way. Try and resist it, though. Ambasador Easter offer is there to aid your decision.

We wrote about the spring period as the perfect time to head down to Dalmatia and enjoy the many benefits of empty streets and mild weather. For some extra magic, visit the islands, which are true little oases of peace. Visiting Zadar, Šibenik, Split, or even Dubrovnik will be a refreshing experience if you enjoy cities. An additional dose of joy will surely be in the air with the Easter holidays just around the corner. True to the Croatian ways and traditions, Easter eggs, both literal and figurative, will be everywhere for all to discover and enjoy. Whether you celebrate Easter or not, the motifs and the colours will have you feeling the mood.

And if you're looking for something a little different, a luxury experience with the best views, definitely check out our favourite Hotel Ambasador in Split. So whether you're escaping for the Easter holidays or not, the time is convenient, and the Ambasador Easter offer makes us want to ditch tradition and treat ourselves.

Their superior room with magnificent sea views is on offer once again, coming with all you might need for a little getaway. Fitting the occasion, a sweet welcome snack will be there to greet you. To follow that, we know we would start (and probably spend) our day at the spa. Breakfast is included, as well as garage parking and bottled water. If available, we would check out late. In the meantime, catching a bit of sun down at the Split riva or just by the pool would do us just fine. Ah, we can almost see the cocktails in our hands and feel the warmth of the spring sun.

Brace yourselves for some (hopefully) good news...

Regina Ivić, widow of the legendary Hajduk coach Tomislav Ivić, had been looking for a buyer for the “Ambasador” hotel for years. This year, German businessman Klaus Alex Birkenstock, heir of the family shoemaking empire "Birkenstock", has taken over the hotel. Could a projected opening now be possible for 2018?
