Adults-Only Hotels on the Makarska Riviera — Where Mountains Meet the Sea
The Makarska Riviera is Croatia's most dramatic coastline: 60 kilometres of white pebble beaches, towered over by the 1,700-metre peaks of the Biokovo mountain range. This backdrop — turquoise sea in front, snow-capped mountains behind — exists nowhere else in the Mediterranean. For adults who want to combine a beach holiday with nature and activity, the Makarska Riviera is perfect.
Here Adults Oasis curates hotels that make the most of this unique setting: beachfront hotels with a wellness area and panoramic views over the Adriatic and the offshore islands of Brač and Hvar.
The Makarska Riviera for Adults
Makarska itself is a charming little town: a harbour promenade lined with cafés and fish restaurants, and an old town that comes alive in the evenings.
Brela, north of Makarska, has the most beautiful beach on the Riviera — Punta Rata has been voted among Europe's top 10 beaches several times.
Biokovo mountain range: The Skywalk at 1,228 m offers a glass walkway over the abyss — a thrill with an Adriatic panorama. Hiking trails lead through fragrant maquis.
Tips
- When to go: May–June and September — warm sea, fewer tourists than at the height of summer.
- Day trips: Ferry to Brač (Zlatni Rat beach) or Hvar — both under an hour away.
- Cuisine: Grilled fish, Pašticada, local wine — down-to-earth and excellent.
- Activities: Biokovo hiking, kayaking, snorkelling, zip-lining over gorges.
