Hotel Biokovo
Three minutes from the beach, right in the centre
About this hotel
Hotel Biokovo sits a 3-minute walk from the beach in the centre of Makarska, close enough that the location itself does most of the work for a short, walkable stay. All en-suite rooms feature satellite TV and minibars, and the property includes an elevator, useful for anyone who doesn't want to manage stairs with luggage. Makarska's sports centre is 150 metres away, and the hotel offers transport to the shrine in Medugorje at an additional cost for guests interested in a day trip inland. An Italian restaurant and café cover meals and drinks on site, and numerous nightclubs sit within a 5 to 10-minute walk for evenings out, making the property a genuinely easy base for a stay built around being out and about rather than lounging on site.
- Central location
- Walking distance to nightlife
- Close to the beach
Our take
Hotel Biokovo sits in the centre of Makarska, a three-minute walk from the beach, with en-suite rooms that have satellite TV and minibars, an Italian restaurant, a café and a lift. Nightclubs and the town's sports centre are close by, so evenings out need no taxi. A 9.0 score from 782 reviews backs it. I would choose it for a central, lively stay; light sleepers may prefer a quieter street away from the nightlife.
- ✓Walk to the beach rather than book a taxi, it's a genuine 3 minutes from the front door.
- ✓Ask about the Medugorje transport option if an inland day trip interests you, it's arranged directly through the hotel.
- ✓Choose this over a beach resort if nightlife within walking distance matters more than a pool deck to you.
Why we love it
- 3-minute walk to the beach
- Sports centre 150 metres away
- Nightclubs within 5-10 minutes on foot
- Medugorje transport available
Why guests love itThe location made the whole trip easier than expected, three minutes to the sand each morning and a short stumble home from the nightclubs each night without needing a taxi either way. The rooms themselves stayed simple and comfortable rather than luxurious, which suited a stay built around being out in town rather than lounging in the room during the day.
