Croatia's coast is long and its islands are numerous enough that a car changes what's realistically possible in a week — Istria's hill towns, the Dalmatian coast down toward Dubrovnik, and the inland Plitvice Lakes are all within reach if you're not tied to bus timetables. Ferry connections to the islands add planning if that's part of your route, but the mainland network of coastal and inland roads is in good condition compared to a lot of the region.
The A1 motorway running south along the coast is well maintained and tolled, while the older coastal road (the Jadranska magistrala) is slower but has better views if you're not in a hurry. Summer traffic toward Split and Dubrovnik can back up significantly in July and August, particularly around ferry ports.
Croatian rental suppliers are generally straightforward on paperwork, but deposit amounts and what counts as included mileage vary enough between coastal tourist-focused companies and inland operators that it's worth comparing more than one quote for a longer trip.
