Family-friendly vacation rentals in Makarska Riviera

Our family of 6 had a wonderful stay at the penthouse that offered great space and amenities and it was a short walk to town. Would definitely stay here with our family again! Thank you!

This was one of our favourite stays in Croatia. The accommodation far exceeded our expectations. Spacious apartment, perfectly equipped, tastefully furnished and sparkling clean. Quietly located, with fantastic views of the sea. This accommodation is outstanding. Natali is a warm, helpful and reliable hostess. We hope that we can come back one day.

Stayed here May 25 wonderful appartment. Far bigger than expected. Stunning views. Perfect location right on the beach.

Damir was a fantastic host, he went beyond our expections, taking us to a local restaurant until we were able to check in and then picking us up. The whole family loved Villa Tissa, with its pristine pool and gardens, we also loved having our separate apartments which were all tastefully decorated. The views from the villa were stunning and we enjoyed the local feel of Kastel Luksic. Thank you for a wonderful stay, we really hope to visit again.

By far the best Airbnb stay I've ever had! Josipa and her father were kind enough to transfer us to and from the Hvar town to the apartment (apartment is on a steep hill with steps). Josipa was really friendly and shared us some of her favourite restaurants and things to do on the island. The apartment was beyond incredible, the rooms were perfectly air conditioned and she provided lots of useful amenities including beach towels, slippers and a washing machine. The view was beautiful, you can see the Pakleni islands very clearly and Vis in the background. The hot tub was easy to use and fantastic in the evening. There were also plenty of furniture including sunbeds. The location was brilliant, it was only a 15 minute walk to a nearby public beach and was fairly easy to walk up and down to town in the evening, although be cautious during midday as there isn't much shade. There is also a supermarket about 15 mins away a few streets down. Great for couples or up to four people!

Maya, her son, and father are amazing!!! Very friendly and accommodating. We spent the most time here during our 2 week Euro trip. Fantastic views from the balcony and a great place to relax with lounge chairs and a table to eat at. Right on the water with a great walk down to the shore where you can jump right into the sea! Space was modern, clean, and comfortable. The bathroom was SO nice. By far the nicest bathroom of anywhere we stayed. Maya's father took us out on his boat with his beagle. It was amazing. He knew the best spots, shared cool information/stories. It was a very authentic/non touristy experience. Maya let us borrow snorkel gear and that was beyond awesome because we snorkeled in the sea by the house but also on our boat trip which was truly special. She also provided homemade olive oil which was divine. WONDERFUL experience and stay.

It was a great stay. There were two of us and there was plenty of room. The apartment would also be suitable for four people. The sofa covers look a little old-fashioned, but the sensational view of the sea and the large terrace with a hot tub makes you forget that immediately. The landlady was very accommodating and helpful. Transportation from the airport to the accommodation was perfectly organized. Thank you for everything

We had such a wonderful stay at Zvonimir’s place in Podstrana! The home was beautiful, clean, and had an absolutely stunning view, the kind you don’t forget. Zvonimir and his family were exceptional hosts: kind, welcoming, and genuinely thoughtful. One of the highlights was receiving some delicious homemade treats that made us feel right at home. Everything about our stay exceeded expectations, and we’d absolutely come back again. Highly recommend!

This place is beautiful. The view from the terrace is absolutely stunning. We saw the stars and heard owls at night. Has everything you need to make breakfast and do some basic cooking if you can be bothered, but there's lots of places to eat in the likes of Bol, with quite a few still open in the shoulder season. It is next to another kind of boutique hotel/airbnb thing but you're still afforded relative privacy from the terrace. Marijan gave us solid instructions on how to get there, but we still drove past the turn off so better to get there in daylight if you can. You will need a car. All in all such an amazing stay, the island of Brač has so much to offer, and this is a particularly idyllic spot. Thank you!

We had a fantastic stay at Dana's apartment! It was perfect - beautiful views, comfortable, stylish, and we felt right at home. Only steps from the beach, a giant bowl of fruit to welcome us, extremely comfortable beds, great little balcony as well as a terrace for sunning with an equally wonderful view. There are even loungers you can take to the beach if you want. I did not want to leave! Dana and her daughter were wonderful and they were very flexible on check-out, which we very much appreciated. I can't wait to go back. Would definitely stay again - well worth the price.

The apartment was spotless and communication before and during our stay excellent. The morning coffee and evening drink on the balcony overlooking the town and port was lovely. As we arrived earlier than check in it was nice being told to come and drop bags and sit by the pool. As it turned out the room was ready which was great. On our last day we were again offered the opportunity to check out late as our ferry was until the afternoon. Highly recommended

We were very happy. Nice and clean accommodation, very welcoming owners Ante and Jasminka. To grill, Ante will prepare and clean everything. Come to the apartment, back a little from the kopecka, but no problem. We wanted peace of mind and a little more distant access to the sea. A small piece of cake right in the crusade, it's all there. We were very satisfied. If you want to go to the water by car, it wants to do it by 9am, otherwise you won't park much. The main part of parking places from the road to the water is charged 6euro/day, after noon there is no charge. Overall, Krvavica (jitrnice) is calm, quiet, forgotten village.

The view from the balcony sells this apartment! It is stunning! Spotlessly clean, as well as milk, bread etc on arrival lovely thoughtful extras such as beach towels, sun cream. Also, thoroughly enjoyed the local liquor and cakes. A great local beach is only 5 minutes walk, downhill, but worth it, especially for an early morning swim. Old town is 10 minutes stroll, with a great selection of restaurants. Thank you Dubravka we loved your apartment and had a great time.

We had a wonderful stay in Jelsa – the accommodation was exactly what we were looking for in a relaxing vacation. It is peacefully and idyllically located, yet just a 5-minute walk from the center of Jelsa, making it the perfect base for exploring the town and the island of Hvar. Our host Benko was absolutely fantastic – very friendly, helpful, and always available whenever we had questions or needed recommendations. You can tell right away that he genuinely cares about the well-being of his guests. The accommodation itself was clean, well-maintained, and well-equipped, with everything you need. We felt very comfortable and welcome, and truly enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere. We would come back anytime and can highly recommend staying with Benko!

The other reviews are totally accurate. Marinas place was magical. It was the best trip we’ve ever been on and it was the first with our 18 mo daughter. Marina gave us her milk for our baby! Marina was extremely friendly, funny, and had perfect communication. She did our laundry for us too!! (She even removed a tough stain from our baby’s shirt!!). We could not have asked for a better vacation or a better host.

Everything was super. The apartment had everything you need, nice balcony, quiet location and walking distance to everything. Helena was very kind and helpful.

A beautiful apartment in a peaceful location. Everything is spotless and well maintained. Nick is so friendly and helpful including a lift to the supermarket on arrival. A good sized clean pool with comfortable sun loungers set in landscaped gardens which are loving tended. All the beds and chairs are comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed. The views are stunning - breakfast on the balcony watching dolphins out at sea. A top class apartment that we hope to revisit - thank you Nick and family for making us feel so welcome in your home.

I came to spend a few days with my mother in Tafra's accommodation, it was a great Airbnb with an amazing view. The pool and hot tub are a real plus. The accommodation was very clean with everything you need in it We can't wait to go back.

Lana was a fabulous host she responded quickly to my messages and had lots of restaurant recommendations, we also enjoyed the use of the bikes. The accommodation was stunning with a large pool area that was very private. The views from the apartment were beautiful looking up at the fort. The location was perfect it is only a short walk from the docks, restaurants and supermarket. If we were to come back to Hvar we would definitely be rebooking Villa Flora!

Beautiful villa at the top of a seaside town. Beautiful view, not overlooked. Superbly equipped. The host is super responsive and has plenty of advice to give about the surrounding area.

It’s very modern and cleanly designed. The main draw for us was the outdoor area with the pool and bbq, set to stunning backdrops of the mountains and the sea. The host was very helpful and gave great restaurant recommendations.

The view from the apartment was absolutely incredible and we loved having access to the sea. Ana’s communication was also great. This really is a fantastic place to stay!

We really enjoy our stay. Everything clean, modern, absolutely perfekt. The apartment, the view, the pool, ... . The owner was helpful and communicative. Last but not least, excellent conditions for charging our electric car. It was wonderful, we would love to come back.

We had a fantastic stay at this Airbnb! The house was exactly as described – clean, cozy, and equipped with everything we needed. The location was perfect, close to local attractions and in a quiet, peaceful area. The host was very friendly and quick to respond to any questions we had, making the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a great getaway!
