Location
About the surrounding area of Villa EdvigeVilla Edvige is located on the hillside just above the centre of Makarska. It enjoys amazing views yet is just 700m from the centre and 1km from the beach.

Some typical dishes are the delicious Bikovo cheese and ‘Kastradina’ which is a stew made with dried and smoked lamb, mutton or goat meat.
The town boasts a fabulous, palm lined promenade with cosmopolitan cafes, bars and unique boutiques and deluxe yachts in the harbour. You can take boat trips to the magical Zlatni Rat beach in Bol on Brac Island and Jelsa on Hvar. The delightful main square of Makarska Town is overlooked by the Baroque Church of St Mark and several elegant palazzi built by wealthy local merchants. The square is full of open-air restaurants and cafes and the daily market behind the church sells fresh local produce.
The stunning Makarska Riviera stretches between Brela and Gradac. It boasts incredible beaches, fragrant pine forests, glistening turquoise sea and lovely quiet bays. Baska Voda is a small charming village 9km north of Makarska and just south of Brela. Once a humble fishing village, Baska Voda’s beaches, pine woods and lovely setting have made it very popular for seaside tourism.

Region
Makarska, perched between the Biokovo mountain range and the glistening waters of the Adriatic Sea, is a stunning destination where nature's grandeur takes centre stage. The imposing mountains rise dramatically behind the town, creating a striking backdrop for the entire region. With its distinct Mediterranean climate, visitors can expect warm summers and mild winters, making it an ideal year-round destination.
The Riva - the town's seafront promenade - is a focal point of the community, where locals and visitors alike gather to soak up the Mediterranean atmosphere. Lined with palm trees and a variety of cafes, restaurants, and boutiques, the Riva is the perfect place to unwind, take in the scenic views of the sea and settle into the Croatian pace of life. As the sun sets over the Adriatic, Makarska comes alive with a vibrant nightlife scene. The Riva transforms into a lively hub of entertainment, with street performers, live music, DJ sets, and a chance to mingle with locals and fellow travellers.
If you're a history enthusiast, Makarska's rich heritage and historic sites will surely pique your interest. The Church of St. Mark, built in the early 18th century, stands as a testament to the region's strong Catholic tradition. The Baroque architecture and stunning altarpieces make it a notable religious landmark.
For a deeper dive into the past, the Makarska Franciscan Monastery, founded in the 16th century, houses an impressive collection of artefacts including ancient manuscripts and artwork. The monastery's cloister and church are architectural marvels in their own right. Within the complex, the Malacological Museum showcases an extensive collection of seashells, a testament to the region's maritime heritage.
The Makarska Riviera boasts a series of blue-flag beaches and crystal-clear waters, ensuring a perfect setting for relaxation and water activities. The most famous is the Makarska Beach itself, stretching for almost 2 kilometres and offering a plethora of water sports, sunbathing spots, and beachfront cafes. While sunbathing and swimming are the primary draws, you can also indulge in snorkelling, paddle-boarding, and jet skiing to experience the vibrant underwater world of the Adriatic.
Heading north along the Makarska Riviera, you’ll come to the town of Brela, famed for its pristine beaches. One of the best, Punta Rata, is often ranked among the most beautiful beaches in the world. The crystal-clear waters and the iconic Brela Rock jutting from the sea make it a picture-perfect spot for sunbathing and swimming.
The Biokovo Nature Park, often overshadowed by the coast, offers a different but equally wonderful experience. Here, the rugged mountain terrain allows for hiking, trekking, and adventure in the heart of nature. There are several well-marked trails that lead you through lush forests, up to the highest peak of Sveti Jure (St. George), providing breathtaking panoramic views of the Adriatic and the surrounding islands.
Day trips to nearby destinations are also a great way to explore the broader region. The islands of Hvar and Brač are easily accessible by ferry and make for fantastic day excursions. Hvar is known for its beautiful old town and lavender fields, while Brač is famous for the stunning Zlatni Rat beach.
This enchanting coastal region, characterised by its stunning beaches, rugged mountains, and vibrant atmosphere, is undoubtedly a place that leaves a lasting impression. It’s a must-visit for anyone looking to explore the diversity of the Dalmatian region. Whether you're a nature lover, history buff, or simply in search of a relaxing coastal escape, Makarska offers something for every traveller.
Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesVilla Edvige is ideal for two families wanting to take a holiday together but wanting some private time too. It would also be brilliant if grandparents wanted to come along. Both apartments are finished beautifully with plenty of space and televisions with PS4. The outside space is wonderful with an excellent pool for family fun and alfresco dining and lounging.
As well as excellent beaches with watersports, Makarska has many ice-cream parlours which will delight small children! The Makarska Observatory is very interesting. There are special steps for small children to observe through the telescope. Usually there are clear skies and you can see Mars, Saturn and even the moon! ZipLine Tucepi, just south of Makarska, is fantastic for an afternoon out with children. Young children can ride tandem with the zip line guide. The 6 steel cables stretch across the beautiful canyon. Flying along at high speeds in this wonderful natural countryside is so thrilling!
An hour or so away, rafting on the Cetina River is one of the most popular and most attended adventure outings in Dalmatia. Children can swim, jump off rocks, kayak and zipline at really high speeds across the canyon. If they have not had enough zip lining at Tucepi, there are another 8 wires with an overall length of 2100m here. The longest wire is 700m. The Cetina River is certainly a thrilling day out!
The magnificent waterfalls at Krka National Park are spectacular. You can enjoy the beautiful views and stroll through nature. The waters of the River Krka are wonderful and refreshing with 17 natural waterfalls including Skradinski Buk, the largest of them which you can swim and jump in. You take a boat trip through the park which adds to the entertainment
