There is practically no evening animation. The territory of the hotel is small and with a full load of space near the pool may not be enough. The beach is small and densely populated by vacationers. The sea is large pebbles, you will be much more comfortable if you take swimming slippers with you. Wi-fi throughout and even on the beach. Croatia, as it turned out, is not a cheap country. By the way, it is much more profitable in most stores to pay in local currency. The euro is not in use, they do not like cards.
Makarska is a pretty town, but very small, you can get around it in one day. I recommend walking up the hill to the botanical garden. The opening views and the beauty of the landscape will not leave you indifferent. In general, I came to the conclusion that one should go to Croatia for the pleasure of gawking at the nature of crazy beauty and ancient architecture, this is not comparable with many countries. You should definitely go to Plitvice Lakes, see Dubrovnik, Split, etc. And for that kind of money you can get a beach holiday much higher in Turkey.
Visa: not needed during the season
Meals: breakfast + dinner buffet. Very tasty and varied menu.
Breakfast - sliced several types of cheeses and sausages, dairy products, fried bacon, a lot of vegetables, fruits, sweet coffee, tea, juice....
Dinner: several types of meat, grilled vegetables, seafood, salads, several types of soups, a lot of vegetables, fruits, sweets, ice cream.
We got to the hotel for a dinner of Dolmatian cuisine, overeating: a sea of u200bu200bfish, salads with seeds, mussels in a very tasty sauce, I write and choke on my own saliva
Drinks for dinner are paid.
The food is excellent, my boyfriend and his daddy who love to eat were very pleased.
As for restaurants on the coast: the prices in restaurants are approximately the same, the portions are large. Choose where it is more pleasant. Everywhere is delicious, I highly recommend seafood soups, lamb meat (Lamp). Dinner, without limiting yourself, cost up to $ 100 for four. Although if you eat only in a hotel without lunch, it is also enough.
Excursions: for seven days I was only on the Plititvice Lakes - a paradise on earth, this is a huge park with many waterfalls, lakes in which fish are teeming, our fisherman should definitely not be allowed here))) the color of the water is not exaggerating the turquoise color. There was a wild desire to jump into the water, and indeed to build a hut and live in it. The entire coast is paved with wooden scaffolding, paths for tourists. It’s worth the ride, it’s worth it, despite the long road of 3.5 hours, although it didn’t seem tiring to us, about 20-25 minutes along a winding road, and the rest of the time along the autobahn, professional drivers drive carefully and correctly.
I am very grateful to the tour operator!
Very tasteless coffee in the restaurant and pool bar. Its price is 10 kunas (2.2 dollars), Coca-Cola, Fanta 18 kunas (4 dollars). Good coffee at the lobby bar.
The night club is private and will be open from July.
Water aerobics is very simple - only movements for the arms and no movements for the legs. Cultural work to zero. The hotel mostly has an older crowd, maybe that's why. . .
There are no private beaches by the sea in Croatia. By the sea, sun loungers are expensive - 60 kn per day. It is better to buy a rug for 100 kunas there. By the way, the exchange rate of the kuna against the dollar and the euro is the same as the hryvnia: 1 euro - 7.15-7.20 kunas, 1 dollar - 4.50 kunas. Or you can take a towel with you to Croatia (it will be useful to lay a sun lounger by the pool on the mattress).
Upon arrival at the airport in Split, we were kept at passport control for a very long time. Plus, the plane was late for 2 hours when we flew to Croatia, and for an hour when we returned from there, but this is the fault of the Aerosvit airline.
In general, a relatively good hotel.
