Lägenheten var toppen och fint skick men vi fick ingen städning på hela veckan då vi hade bokat själva och inte genom resebyrå.

"We were on a family vacation in Croatia and stay in this apartment in Makarska. It has two bed-rroms and the main room with a sofa. The apartment is well-equipped and clean. It worked very well for us except that it is on top of a steep hill, so going up was quite a challenge. The main Makarska beach is about 25-30 min away and overcrowded. We ended up driving to other smaller, beaches that were much nicer, and it worked very well for us because exit to the main road was very easy. Another thing...

"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!"
