Villa Riva Makarska

10/10 Excellent
"I had a lovely stay at this hotel and would happily stay here again. It was a little difficult to find at first, but once I got there and checked in, everything was smooth and well worth it. The room was spotless, comfortable, and had everything I needed. One thing I really appreciated was the air conditioning it worked exceptionally well, which made a huge difference during the heatwave and kept the room cool and comfortable throughout my stay. Parking was available at the property, which made travelling by car much more convenient and stress-free. The location was another major highlight. Everything I needed, including shops, restaurants, and public transport, was close by, making it easy to get around and explore the area without any hassle."

"Comfortable bed, beautiful view of the sea, great breakfast, clean room and entire hotel, great location by the sea, walking distance to the beach, main promenade. Not well thought through and dangerous design of the access to the balcony. Door threshold is good 25 plus cm high and 20 cm wide. The balcony floor is 20 plus cm above the room floor. When you walk from the balcony to the room you are stepping well deep in. I fell badly at night with dim light. I don’t drink alcohol, do no drugs, I am in good health, I beat up myself badly. Really bad design!"

"This was our third time staying at this resort because we’ve always enjoyed it. The room was very clean, and the housekeeping staff was excellent—very friendly, professional, and attentive. However, the bar experience was disappointing. The beach bar wasn’t open during our stay, which was a big disappointment. The main bar also had issues with its system being down, and the staff seemed confused most of the time. I asked about the status of my order, and the bartender simply looked at me, said they didn’t have my order, then turned away and ignored me. The order arrived about five minutes later, making the whole situation even more confusing. For a 5-star resort, I expected a much higher level of service. Hopefully, these issues will be improved because we’ve always enjoyed staying here."

"It is great for a family style holiday, very relaxing. Everything is designed with family comfort in mind. We are thinking of bringing our friends with kids next time for a joint holiday! Our 3 and half year old daughter absolutely loved it! She had amazing time playing and making friends! Facilities are great there is loads to do for kids of all ages. The playroom and trampolines were an absolute hit for her! it makes it easier for parents to have a bit of down time at evening on the terrace. There is easy access to the beach with tiny pebbles and crystal clear water which we loved. Pool area is clean and wasn’t busy even on a cloudy day. We loved a snooze in the shade in the pine woods next to promenade on a slow afternoon. So peaceful and relaxing! Location of the hotel is great just a short walk to Makarska centre for exploring! Food was ok, there is something for everyone’s taste. I particularly liked a salad bar and healthy options. The pool bar has quality food, very tasty, it was quite a surprise, not something we expected for the standard pool bar! Room has been recently renovated, cleaned daily with loads of attention, quite basic but modern, new air con, TV, fridge etc., the only comment would be that beds could be more comfy with option for extra pillow. It was peaceful for sleeping. The staff were super nice and helpful, always ready to exchange a joke and so friendly! Highly recommended!"
