FAQs about company retreats in

Split

Is Split a good location for a corporate offsite?

Split works well for teams that want a coastal setting with a historic backdrop. A company retreat in Split blends seaside views, old town charm, and a lively atmosphere, making it easy to combine structured sessions with social time.

How do teams typically get to Split for a retreat?

Most groups arrive via Split Airport (SPU), located about 30 minutes from the city center. During peak season, there are direct flights from many European cities, and airport transfers are straightforward to arrange.

When is the best time to organize a corporate retreat in Split?

Late spring and early autumn, especially May to June and September to October, offer the best balance with temperatures around 22–28°C. Summer is popular but busier and hotter, while winter is quieter and more limited for outdoor plans.

Which areas in Split are best for a company retreat stay?

The Old Town is ideal for walkability and atmosphere, Bačvice offers beach access and a social feel, and areas slightly outside the center provide more space and quieter accommodation for teams.

What team-building activities can be arranged in Split?

Teams often organize boat trips to nearby islands like Hvar or Brač, walking tours of Diocletian’s Palace, kayaking, wine tastings, and beach-based activities. Island hopping is one of the standout experiences.

How long should a corporate retreat in Split last?

A 3 to 4 day format is the most common. This gives enough time for meetings, one or two standout activities, and relaxed evenings without rushing the schedule.

What makes Split different from other coastal retreat destinations in Croatia?

Split offers a mix of city energy and coastal access in one place. Unlike smaller island destinations, it has more infrastructure while still keeping a Mediterranean feel.

What kind of food and social experiences can teams expect in Split?

Teams can enjoy fresh seafood, Dalmatian cuisine, and group dinners in historic settings. Evenings often include waterfront dining, wine bars, or casual gatherings in the Old Town.

Can Split accommodate both small and large company retreats?

It can. Smaller teams often prefer boutique stays or apartments, while larger groups can use hotels and organized venues, though early booking is important during peak months.

Why do companies choose Split for a corporate retreat in Croatia?

Split offers a combination of accessibility, scenery, and variety. For teams planning a corporate retreat in Croatia that includes both work and memorable outdoor experiences, it’s a well-rounded choice.

Our team offsite retreat was excellent - great food, weather and activities. Even the people that couldn't attend wished they could have made it. And the location was perfect. Surf Office - Thank you very much for your help and support with planning and organization - and Beatriz our retreat manager was fantastic - fast, efficient and always kept us informed. It really made the difference. It really did!

Sharan
Head of Operations

Surf Office helped us plan our 60 person staff retreat, scoping locations, venues, restaurants, activities, and more. Angela was really on top of it and paid close attention to all of the details. Definitely saved us time on research and back-and-forth with all of the various contact persons!

Stacey
Director of Operations

We went into talks with SurfOffice and hit it off with the founders to make this happen. Theres a team that will guide you through the choice and a platform for when you are to arrive with an agenda. Our team likes to bring in community members to these types of events and the crew is excited. The onboarding is going well and we paid the deposit, and we're looking forward to the trip. Our party had to reduce significantly due to constraints and the team has been accomodating so far. 5* everyone had a good time and Rayna on site made everyone feel comfortable.

Logan
CEO

The location was great, the areas dedicated to us were amazing and all things we asked for were there - also, I love the shared dashboard to organize.

Beatrice
People Operations Manager

I recently worked with Surf Office to organize an offsite retreat for my company in Gran Canaria, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! Beatriz, the retreat planner, was incredible. From start to finish, she was exceptionally organized, responsive, and attentive to every detail. Planning a retreat for a team can be daunting, but Beatriz made the process seamless. She answered all my questions quickly and thoroughly, and her recommendations were spot-on. The offsite itself was beyond amazing – the accommodations and activities were perfectly tailored to our team’s needs. Surf Office took all the stress out of planning and delivered an unforgettable experience for our group. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to plan a work retreat. If you’re lucky enough to have Beatriz as your planner, you’re in great hands!
