"Super nice host, and lovely little apartment with views of the sea. Everything was within walking distance, so we didn't have to use our car once during our stay. Bed was really big and comfortable, and the little kitchen had everything we needed."

"The basic of basic stays. Nice bedrooms with a nice patio but practically no utensils to use in the kitchen, and no washing machine for laundry. Nicely decorated but I look for function over looks. Also on top of a steep hill so you’ll have some pretty stellar calves by the end of your stay. "

Indoor pool, 2 outdoor pools, free pool cabanas, pool loungers

"We really enjoyed our stay! The rooms have been recently refurbished so are fantastic, and the restaurant is well known on the island as a great place to eat. Only 12 rooms means it’s quiet by the pool and you can always get a lounger, and the breakfast is quality and HUGE - we didn’t need it every day. Thank you!"

"Disappointed on arrival to find out the on site restaurant had closed 2 wks previously and our units hot tub was not working properly…the 2 main reasons we booked this more isolated property. Upside, we had a fantastic meal at the Pizzeria Maslina in Drvenik and when we returned, the staff had the hot tub starting to heat although it was a very slow process and the filter never did function properly. Transparent communication on their behalf regarding the restaurant closure would have allowed us...

"This was a wonderful hotel with excellent amenities. Amazing staff and service. The room was amazing with the walk out infinity pool. Our only regret was that we couldn’t stay longer at this property. We are definitely coming back."

5/5 Excellent

"Excellent luxurious hotel. Buffet dinner very varied but quite bland flavours. Not for guests who are afraid of steps-it’s a long walk to the beach down a lot of stairs! "

5/5 Excellent

"Couldn’t ask for a more perfect location. Staff are all wonderful and will do their best to provide excellent service. Food is always lovely. Relaxing areas to sit and drink wine or coffee both inside and outside.Rooms and suites are kept clean and to a high standard. Mini bar stocked with lots of choices of drinks, mixers, wine, beer, snacks - both sweet and savoury. Room service is excellent too. Balcony with our suite was fantastic; spacious with sun loungers, chairs and tables. Beautiful views of the sea and the pine trees. A stones throw from lovely cafes, bars, small shops, post office, supermarkets and harbour. Set in between Makarska and Brela which are both a lovely walk. Reception are happy to arrange tours and trips or taxi services to almost anywhere: highly recommended are Split, Bosnia, Vineyard Wine tasting. The indoor pool is contemporary in design and has two whirlpools next to it also as well as loungers and towels provided for guests. The spa treatments are excellent and highly recommended, the staff are fantastic, so friendly and deliver amazing treatments. The hair salon is also excellent and has lovely staff. We have gone several times to this hotel and are never disappointed. Can’t wait to visit next year. "

3/5 Okay

"The hotel is in a great location, next to the beach and a lovely walk to Tucepi and Podgora. The staff are pretty miserable in the pool bar except for Eva, she was lovely. We are vegetarians and there is not proper labelling so you could be eating anything, not good enough in this day and age. The food is average and barely warm. There is also very little entertainment. Overall it's in a great location but i'd try a different hotel or apartment next time."
