Looking for a resort near Split for 2 weeks (or may split the weeks between resorts) to spend this August in Croatia, beaches and suitable for 10 and 13 year old only criteria really

Any pointers on where to start - accommodation search engines etc would be great

Thanks in advance

Are you set on a resort/hotel? because you can get really great deals on apartment rentals.

First, go to this website and pick the towns you like best:
www.croatia.hr
Use the interactive map of Dalmatia: Split under Destinations.

Cross section your favorites with information from this site:
www.croatia-beaches.com
Search by region: Central Dalmatia

Next, go to the homepage of each town and you'll find links to accommodation options.

There are supposed to be great beaches along the mainland--good for kids. I have always bypassed this stretch because I was on islands, but I hope this helps you.
Heard great things about Omis and Brela.

I wasn't sure how close you meant to Split--so my answer was based on you moving south to the riviera.
