Food was cheap, beer was cheap and the local are really friendly.
It's hard not to love the place.
Thanks. Will report back idc

However it has nearly all been rebuilt in its original form.
Its lovely weather and a nice place. Cheap too and the locals are friendly.
Cheers Andy. Much appreciated .<br /><br />-- Thu Aug 02, 2012 5:07 pm --<br /><br />
blueinkwell said:Me and the Mrs spent a week there at the end of June, it's a fantastic place. Do the walk round the old town wall and get the cable car up to the Museum of the Homeland War, and you must find the two cliff side bars that are outside the walls.
That's really helpful.
Thanks blueIW.

Just got my Hotel confirmation. Apparently I have booked "All inclusive Light".
Does that mean I get muffins, barms or plain tea cakes by the pool?

It means you might get a light in your room that works.

Muffins, you get muffins...just tell them you're from Bluemoon, the home of the muffin.

Beautiful place. Walk along the main drag in the old town, the Stradun, round about sundown, when all the locals parade up and down and have a look at each other. Very European.
If you get the chance, go up the coast to Split, which is also a fabulously lovely city. The old town is a Roman palace built by Diocletian, just amazing.
Mostar is also worth a visit, just to see the bridge (never been, me.) Just don't mention ze var.
Have a good trip, I'm jealous now.

It's fantastic, though went early summer and don't know how lively it gets. Great food if you like seafood, and beer was good. Easy to drive round - would really recommend driving south to Montenegro (Kotor) which is gorgeous. Don't wear Dzeko shirt though.

Glyn, for football find Katie O'Connors Irish bar, it's just off the central strip in the walled part. Watched City v NUFC there-only place that shows EPL !
