Home (office) away from home
We got to stay at Vila Almar for a 3-weeks "workation" in April/May 2022 and had a wonderful time! The house is both cosy and spacious for 6 guests easily - the two of us could use the entire upstairs floor as our "away-from-home office". The kitchen is fully equipped and there are two terraces to enjoy both the mountain view (right up to the Biokovo Skywalk) to the one side and the coastline vista to the other, with Hvar and Brač island looking (disceptively!) close. For anyone as unfamiliar with the Croatian mountain landscapes like ourselves: Note that while it is just a 35mins walk from the house to the pebble beaches of Makarska, it takes you down a steep slope which makes the return a rather advanced-cardio hike - or taxi drive. There are plenty of opportunities for grocery shopping and going out within a short car drive and several restaurants within walking distance (although those were still closed when we visited before the main season).
Manuel and his family must receive special mention as hosts! They were there to greet us in person when we arrived, welcoming us as guests to their home - not as customers to a hotel. Senka came by during our stay to take care of the garden plants and bring a change of sheets. Manuel was always available for questions and kindly checked in on us when he heard there had been an earthquake in the area. We felt really at home and greatly enjoyed exploring Croatia from our homebase at Almar.

Dream holiday in a wonderful house
We had an absolutely wunderful stay in this beautiful house and spend a dream holiday. Everything was just perfect - from the first contact with the owner to the check out. House Almar is situated in the mountains with an amazing view to the sea with the islands of Brac and Hvar. Out of the bedroom windows or just directly from the terrace, you can see the blue water every morning and enjoy breathtaking sunsets - just the best thing to start and end a day. Just in the middle of a mountain village we enjoyed the quiet surroundings and met friendly people living there. The House is absolutely lovely and stylish furnished, so that one can just feel like home. Everything you need to cook is ready to use in the kitchen. Everything was new and super super clean. The terrace and the pool is the best place to calm down from the everyday stress. The owner of the house is very kind and always reachable, also the lovely woman who cares for the visitors of the house. We stayed nearly two weeks and it was very hard to leave our new preferred holiday destination. Just take the chance to spend your holiday in House Almar and plan to stay for long - you will surely be thrilled! Thank you so much Manuel, for having us as guests. We will definately come back!
Dieses Haus ist ein Traum! Ruhig und idyllisch in einem Bergdorf oberhalb von Tučepi gelegen kann man herrlich vom Alltagsstress entspannen. Der Tag beginnt schon mit einem atemberaubenden Blick auf die Adria und endet mit traumhaften Sonnenuntergängen. Das Haus ist sehr großzügig und stylish eingerichtet. Wir haben uns sofort zu Hause gefühlt und die Ruhe des Bergdorfs genossen. Ein Kleinod mitten an der Makarska Riviera. Alles, was man zum Kochen benötigt ist in der Küche, eine Waschmaschine ebenfalls vorhanden. Der Besitzer ist super super nett und hilfsbereit, ebenso die Dame, die sich um die Gäste vor Ort kümmert. Wir waren sehr traurig, als wir unser neues "Ferientraumhaus" nach knapp zwei Wochen wieder verlassen mussten udn werden garantiert noch einmal hier Urlaub machen. Es war traumhaft, absolut weiter zu empfehlen, wenn sie einen tollen Urlaub verbringen wollen. Wir sind hellauf begeistert!

Jolie villa avec vues sublimes sur la mer et la montagne !
Accueil chaleureux et grande disponibilité de Carme et Tonci même si la barrière de la langue est un peu handicapante.
La villa est conforme au descriptif , très spacieuse et confortable.
La piscine est très bien entretenue et les couchers de soleil rythmés par la cloche de l’église sont époustouflants!
Les restaurants de la région proposent une cuisine délicieuse, les huiles d’olive et les vins méritent d’être goûtés sans modération!
Les îles aux alentours, Brac, Hvar et Korkula sont à visiter absolument.
Manuel est très attentif et toujours à l’écoute.
Nous nous demandons depuis notre retour pourquoi nous n’avions pas visité la Croatie plus tôt!
