We’d live there if we could - The grounds are beautiful. The museum is graphically beautiful and educational. Products at the shop are top notch. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. We also ate at the little restaurant there and the food and atmosphere was incredible - one of our favorite places on the globe. We would buy a house there if we could.

Fantastic place, incredible food - get the ice cream!! - A fun surprise after our visit to Klis! There was a lot of love and care put into the museum, the garden, and the food was absolutely incredible - highly recommend the ice cream with orange sage and olive oil.

Very nice - Very nice! We discovered this because the entrance ticket to the Klis fortress gave free access. We were afraid of a place with exorbitant prices but not at all. We ate at the tavern and it was very, very good. Menu between 21 and 27€ starter, main course, dessert. Simple but very well cooked dishes, with fresh produce!

You need to visit this place. - Great guide. We’ll thought out for our mixed age group and two language group. The shop is fantastic. We learned a lot about types of olive oil.

THE Most Unbelievably Wonderful Hidden Gem - Following the advice of our friend, we visited the Olive Museum after touring Klis Castle, since admission for both is included in a single ticket. Not only did we learn some very important things about Olive Oil (maybe the only information I’ve ever retained from an actual museum tour), we were in for a totally unexpected treat when we visited their on-campus village for lunch. First of all, the village itself was romantic and beautiful. You have to see it to believe it. My wife instantly said, “I want to live here!” The staff were warm & welcoming, and the lunch menu was an EXCELLENT value for the meal & experience. The Mediterranean Gold is now my all-time favorite cocktail, and we’ll never forget their pillow-soft gnocchi. At the end, the Olive Museum and Stella Croatica team earned a place in our hearts, and the visit ended up being one of our Top 5 memories from our first trip to Croatia. We would do it again and again and again!

This was a real find. - Don't go to Klis fortress and not visit here! Staff really knowledgeable and the best souvenir shop you'll find. Great restaurant with friendly staff too.

Olive Museum and Tasting Experience - Staff very welcoming and friendly. Extra virgin olive oil has been the best we have ever tasted and we will certainly be bringing back some to share with our family and friends. We paid €17 for olive oil tasting experience however we were left disappointed as only lasted 30 minutes with sampling two of the facilities products. We would recommended just buying ticket for museum as you can sample all products on local shop. We do recommend however feel that olive oil experience should have been more special for money paid. We also were looking forward to having lunch here but were told we could not be seated for an hour+ due to a group lunch sitting. Again, we feel disappointed with this experience.

A little disappointed - Educational visit, pretty garden but I am disappointed because I expected to see local production, but the olives come from Dubrovnik, the oil sold at the shop is very expensive (much more than other oils sold in the areas of var or maritime alps). Excellent restaurant with local cuisine and garden products.
