Hotel Osejava

Located at the southern end of the central Makarska seafront and by the sea, this is a beautiful, four-star boutique property with a distinct design and possibly unique in Croatia.

Using traditional white stone from the island of Brac, the architect has created a property that mirrors a traditional Dalmatian village with room doors looking like front doors to houses, corridors looking like streets and even washing on a line overhead as happens in narrow streets in the region; authentic and stylish.

Many of the staff have worked at Osejava for many years and feedback notes how attentive they are. This may explain the high level of repeat visitors.

Right on the waterfront and with no cars in front of the hotel (pedestrian access to the beach), the hotel’s terrace attracts locals as well as hotel guests. Both the Sushi Bar and Pizzeria also are a top choice for locals. It is an easy stroll into the centre of Makarska which is visible from the hotel in around five minutes.

Although a pretty pebble beach is right in front of the hotel, ten minutes’ walk brings visitors to the long beach beyond the centre and this is where water sports, boat hire and boat excursions can be found.

The regular ferry from Makarska to Sumartin on the island of Brac leaves from the seafront in the middle of the seaside promenade and is around six minutes’ walk from the hotel.

A marked path from near to the hotel leads to Nugal beach, 3 kms southeast of Makarska through a small pine wood. The unusual cliffs are often streaked red at sunset and part of the beach is for naturist sunbathers.
