Location
About the surrounding area of Villa CarolVilla Carol has located 7km from Imotski, a small town on the northern side of the Biokovo massif in the Dalmatian Hinterland. The Imotski lakes are a natural attraction. The Red Lake is the deepest in Europe, and the Blue Lake is a favourite bathing spot in the area. Its unique blue colour is spectacular. Imotski boasts an excellent choice of restaurants and famous wine varieties.
Half an hour away, the beautiful Makarska Riviera stretches between Brela and Gradac. It boasts incredible beaches, fragrant pine forests, glistening turquoise sea and lovely quiet bays.
Makarska itself is built around a deep, sheltered bay and backed by the dramatic rocky heights of Mount Biokovo. Makarska town is excellent for nightlife and restaurants. Some typical dishes are the delicious Bikovo cheese and ‘Kastradina’, which is a stew made with dried and smoked lamb, mutton or goat meat. It 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. 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.
The magnificent Biokovo Mountain is incredible for hiking. The Biokovo Nature Park has stunning scenery, wild horses and goats, the remains of old settlements, alpine plants, forests and wildflowers.
Guests staying at Villa Carol can easily enjoy the delights of the historic towns of Split, Omis and Trogir.

Not only is there a playground, table tennis, table football and a wonderful swimming pool and spacious gardens, but there is also a PS4. Families will enjoy the peace and tranquillity of this location. Children can play and squeal with delight without bothering anyone!
As well as excellent beaches with watersports, Makarska has many ice-cream parlours which will delight small children! 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 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.
