Traveler advice
Getting around
Rental cars or Uber
We advise you to rent a car if staying with us as the house is in the Biokovo mountains.
During the summer months Uber & Taxis are working fine as well. During the winter months it can be difficult to get a cab.
There are bus lines every 1 hour, they connect all the places and cities.
Traveling with kids
Outdoor playgrounds around
You will find a great outdoor playground in Makarska and in Baska Voda.
During the summer months there are many attractions for children such as jumping castles, trampolines etc.
All the souvenir shops have also a variety of swimming accessoires and toys.
Ways to save
Check the rates before changing money!
In Croatia you have to pay in HRK (Kuna) or by card. When using an money exchange office please check first their rates. They may differ!
Don't miss

Every Friday in the summer time there is a live concert with local music and lovely atmosphere in Baska Voda. On the weekends there will be markets and small theme trade shows on the riviera. You will find on our IG page all detailed information for the following week in advance. So don´t miss out!
