I know what you’re thinking: “Makarska, beautiful… but where exactly should I stay?”
Well, after a bit of digging, I’ve unearthed a few gems. These are the kind of places where you can relax, maybe enjoy a cocktail on a balcony, and feel like you’ve discovered a secret or two.
Forget trawling through endless websites hoping for the best; I’ve already done the hard work for you. So, let’s get to it, shall we?
Heritage Hotel Porin Makarska
If you like the idea of staying somewhere that feels like it has a bit of history, look no further than Heritage Hotel Porin. Right on the Riva Promenade, this former noble palace has everything you’d expect from a spot at the heart of Makarska: elegance, style, and proximity to the action.
It’s only a short stroll to the beach, but you’ll probably end up spending more time in the hotel itself, sipping coffee at the terrace or grabbing drinks at the bar. The rooms? They’re modern, comfortable, and come with all the trimmings you need—air conditioning, minibar, and a TV to keep you company when you’ve had your fill of exploring.
Breakfast is homemade bread and fresh fruit, so it’s not just your average hotel spread. You might not get a room for the price of a budget hostel, but you won’t regret it for a second. Click to view the images >>
Hotel Osejava
So, you’ve decided you want a room with a view, right? Hotel Osejava serves it up with a side of sea breeze. Located in the centre of town on the promenade, this place blends luxury with local charm.
It’s the kind of hotel where you can wake up, head to the balcony, and feel like you’re in an advert for the “perfect holiday.” Modern décor, luxurious furniture, and all the facilities you could need, from sports halls to restaurants serving Dalmatian dishes. And let’s not forget that sunset view over Brač Island; you’ll want to take a picture, but you won’t do it justice.
The hotel’s as stylish as it is relaxing, and if you’re planning to mix business with pleasure, there are congress halls for those “serious” moments. But let’s face it—you’ll be more interested in the pool and the food. Click to view the images >>
Valamar Meteor Hotel
For those who like their hotel stays to have a bit of everything, Valamar Meteor Hotel is where you’ll want to plant yourself. You’ve got sea views, an outdoor and indoor pool, a wellness centre, and enough sporting activities to make you feel like you’re on the set of a travel documentary.
It’s modern, it’s chic, and it has a restaurant that serves up excellent Dalmatian cuisine to keep you fuelled for whatever adventure you decide to embark on. If you’re into hiking, trekking, or maybe paragliding (because why not?), Mount Biokovo is right on your doorstep.
You’ll get that relaxing, vacation vibe while also being close to all sorts of action. Just don’t expect this to be the cheapest option—this place is a little more ‘treat yourself’ than ‘penny-pinching’. But for everything you get, it’s worth the extra. Click to view the images >>
