Great Hillside Location

This was a great little place located high up the hill of town. Fantastic view of the Adriatic from the deck and surrounded by the mountains cliffs behind the unit. Unit is not large but there are comfortable places to sit outside and gaze at the Adriatic. Need a car if you are staying here. But with the car easy to get down the hill to the beaches, the town, and the sites. Also a grocery store on the road up to the unit.

Best beds! Very clean, lovely place.

Top floor of a family home but also private. A bathroom for every bedroom. Apartment is spotless. Two blocks to beautiful beach. Good sized sunny balcony. Everything is close. Silvana was there when we arrived and when we left, she presented us with a parting gift. In love with Makarska and this home! We will be back!
