Stronger Croatian economy may improve Balkan holiday experience

27 January 2010

People on Croatian holidays in Dubrovnik, Split and Zagreb could be benefitting from an improved experience, if the results of an economic study are to be believed.

Croatia was one of the big movers in the latest Index of Economic Freedom, published each year by the Heritage Foundation and the Wall Street Journal in America.

The Balkan country rose 24 places with a score of 59.2 - which is 4.1 points higher than the previous year, Croatia magazine reports.

Such an improvement in economic fortunes could lead to an overhaul of the facilities offered to visitors to the country - starting with fundamental infrastructure such as transport and hotels.

According to the magazine, Croatia made "notable improvements" throughout 2009.

Croatia is currently attempting to gain entry to the European Union which, it believes, will help it to further enhance what the country has to offer - and may be good news for those staying in a Croatian villa or waterfront property.
