Frequently Asked Questions About Car Rental in Hotel Plaza Duce(Meet&Greet)
How do I arrange a meet-and-greet pickup at Hotel Plaza Duće?
After booking, our officer will contact you to confirm the exact meeting time and point at the hotel. The car is typically brought to the hotel parking area or main entrance. Please have your driving licence, ID card, and payment card ready for the 10-minute handover process.
Is Duće a good base for day trips?
Duće is excellently positioned between Split and Omiš. In one direction, Split's Diocletian's Palace, the Klis Fortress, and the Kaštela towns are all within 30 minutes. In the other direction, Omiš rafting, the Makarska Riviera beaches, and Brela (one of the most photographed beaches in Croatia) are all under an hour away.
Can I get to the islands from Duće?
There are no ferry services directly from Duće. The nearest car ferry port is Split (22 km north), which connects to Brač, Hvar, Šolta, and Vis. For foot passenger ferries, Omiš (12 km) has seasonal connections to nearby coastal points. A rental car gives you the flexibility to drive to whichever ferry port suits your island destination.
Car Rental Hotel Plaza Duce – Direct Delivery to Your Hotel or Apartment
Very easy to get in touch with and book a car. Excellent service as we had the car delivered to the exact location we were at when we were supposed to pick it up. In our case outside the restaurant where we were sitting and eating. Perfect service, nice car, affordable.

Easy and neat car rental. Reserved the car online and paid upon pickup. No scams here. Recommended. They are also a bit cheaper than the international car rental companies.
Hotel Plaza Duće is set in the small coastal resort of Duće, a quiet beach village approximately 18 km southeast of Split and 12 km northwest of Omiš on the scenic D8 coastal road. Duće has a beautiful 1.5 km long pebble beach with clear, shallow water backed by pinewood shade, making it one of the most pleasant stretches of coast between Split and Makarska. The village has a small marina, several beachside restaurants, and a relaxed holiday atmosphere.
Our Avax meet-and-greet service at Hotel Plaza Duće is specifically tailored for guests staying at the hotel or in the surrounding Duće and Krilo Jesenice area, bringing the rental car directly to the hotel entrance or an agreed nearby point. This saves guests the inconvenience of taking a taxi or bus to a rental office in Split.
From Duće, both Split and Omiš are within easy reach — Split is 25 minutes north and Omiš (with its famous Cetina River canyon and adventure sports) is 15 minutes south. The Makarska Riviera, with some of Croatia's most spectacular pebble beaches backed by the Biokovo mountain range, begins just beyond Omiš and stretches for 60 km towards Dubrovnik. A rental car from this central location opens up the entire Dalmatian coast.

12 km
Split Old Town
Diocletian's Palace, the Riva promenade, and the cathedral are 25 minutes north via the D8 coastal road. The drive along the Split Riviera, passing through Stobrec and the town beaches, is pleasant and scenic.
22 km
Makarska Riviera
Beginning just south of Omiš, the Makarska Riviera is a 60 km stretch of stunning coastline with the Biokovo mountain rising dramatically behind crystal-clear pebble beaches. The glass-floor Biokovo Skywalk (1,228 m altitude) is a must.

Driving Tips
The D8 coastal road through Duće is well-surfaced but can be congested in peak season (July–August), particularly in the late afternoon when beach-goers are heading back to Split. The road is single-lane in each direction with no overtaking opportunities through the village itself. For quicker travel to Split or south to Makarska, the inland D70 road via Dugopolje connects to the A1 motorway and avoids the coastal congestion entirely. Parking at Hotel Plaza is available for guests.
