Vacation with children in Makarska

Deciding where to go and spend your hot, summer days is challenging enough, even more, if you vacation with your children. Finding the perfect place that is also family-friendly is easy in Croatia, especially in Makarska!

The beaches in Makarska are really unique and a great choice to relax and spend your days with family. Most of them have a blue flag, which means top sea quality, which is really important when you're on vacation with your little ones. The 50-kilometre coastline is surrounded by pine trees, as well as stunning shades of the blue-green sea.

Where to stay?

When vacationing with your family, the main problem is where to stay. From apartments and houses to hotels and villas. Choosing the best place for your vacation is really important, there are a lot of family-friendly options available in Makarska.

Not only do they have to be family-friendly, but they also have to be comfortable as you were at your own home. Nowadays, renting a whole house or a gorgeous villa Salvina with your close or extended family is really popular because you have the place for yourself and have some other perks for a relatively small price.

Most of these have exceptional views, amazing housing, and even your own swimming pool, like those from Villa Vespera or Villa Prestige. They have a lot of space for your children to play in and they are enclosed, so you don't have to worry too much about your kid running off somewhere.

There are a lot of family activities besides swimming in the beautiful Adriatic sea. Some are more exciting than others, but a lot of them are educational as well!
