Location
About the surrounding area of Villa RosalijaVilla Rosalija is located only 6 km from the natural phenomenon of the Red Lake and Blue Lake in Imotski. A secluded and peaceful area, Imotski is the perfect spot to immerse yourself in Croatia’s vast countryside, with views stretching out across the surrounding greenery and Biokovo mountain range.
If you are driving from the coast, then you to reach Imotski, you will have to take the tunnel through Biokovo mountain. The mountain range does rob the area of sea views, but its kast formations create even more spectacular wonders! The unique landscape means the area is rich in stories, folklore and fairy tales, so to really understand the culture you need to gain insight into the local imagination! The Red and Blue Lakes will steal your attention for hours, with their mystical beauty making it hard to look away, you can even climb down and swim in the Blue Lake. This tranquil area is perfect for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle, enjoying some peace and quiet in a breath-taking setting.
The neighbourhood is extremely friendly, great for families or groups of friends. There are restaurants within 1km of the villa, so you can eat out with ease, taking a well-deserved break from cooking. There are shops, restaurants, bars and supermarkets, so everything you need is nearby.
We would recommend renting a car for your stay, as just 28 km from the villa (less than 30 min driving), you will find the most stunning beaches, dotted along the amazing Baska Voda and Makarska riviera.
The sea is clean and warm along the entire coastline, perfect for sunny days by the sea. Makarska itself is a quaint and charming towns, still celebrating the transitional ways of Croatia, giving you an authentic experience of Croatian culture. In the summer, the streets and main square are bustling with lively restaurants and cafes, ideal for a fun evening out. Behind the church you will find the daily open-air market, where you can pick up fresh local ingredients, creating your own home-cooked delicacies when you return to the villa! Along the harbour wooden excursion boats offer one-day trips to Jelsa on Hvar and Zlatni Rat beach in Bol on Brac – perfect for a family trip.

Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesVilla Rosalija is a popular choice for families, with four bedrooms, including two extra pull out beds, making plenty of space. Although the furnishings are contemporary and stylish, an attention to comfort has still been made, so kids can curl up on large sofas and sink down into luxury beds. With a game room downstairs including a large TV and a PS4, kids can create their own private den, escaping from parents to play together, leaving adults the chance to relax and socialise upstairs! Of course, the terrace and private infinity pool are always popular with our younger guests, with space for them to splash and play, making the most of the sunny days! Al-fresco dining is similarly great for families, utilising the barbecue to grill fresh local ingredients and sharing quality time as a family as you eat in the sunshine.
The area is great for kids, with the natural wonders of the Red Lake and Blue Lake to explore, with seemingly endless outdoor adventures in the Biokovo Mountains to enjoy. Whether your kids like mountain biking, walking, kayaking, or cycling, there is something for everyone.
The coast can also be reached within a 30-minute drive where the Makarska Riviera stretches out across the sea, offering a myriad of bustling restaurants and beautiful beaches where you can stay for hours, ambling in and out of the sea with kids running up and down the beach. For families we often recommend taking a boat trip to Jelsa on Hvar and Zlatni Rat beach in Bol on Brac, giving kids and adults a new place to explore and new things to see. There are also fun trips heading out to explore hidden caves and beaches, with the chance to snorkel and dive – a popular choice for families.
Makarska becomes more and more popular with tourists each year, particularly for families travelling with children. There are plenty of kid-friendly activities, with playgrounds, sailing, diving, snorkelling, kayaking, peddle boats, banana boats and jet skiing, just to name a few. The relaxed dining scene in Croatia tends to suit families perfectly, with nearly all restaurants happily accepting children and offering plenty of options for them to enjoy!

A lovely stay
7 of us stayed in the beautiful villa for a week. Everything is as described! We had a super nice time and communication with the host was extremely friendly at all times! We would love to come back and thank you for a super nice time in the villa!

Perfection
We stayed 10 amazing days in this villa and enjoyed every one of them. Great area with all that your heart needs in the middle of nowhere. Wonderful separated location. Thank you so much, we just can recommend this.

Fantastic holiday
The Villa was amazing as it was as beautiful as in the pictures. The sunrises and evenings at the mountains are breathtaking. All rooms are spacious and well equipped with anything you would need. Tennis court and basketball hoop was just a cherry on top. Best part of the stay was the graciousness of the hosts - they were truly welcoming and willing to help with anything you might need. We stayed with my extended family including small children. The Villa is children friendly as they had chairs and cribs for us. It might be a little tricky to find at first, but we managed to find it easily. Would give a 10/10 rating and recommendation to visit the Villa. The hosts were amazingly welcoming and generous.

Family getaway
We (2 families, 8 people) had a great time at this villa. Although the pictures already looked promising, reality was even better; a big kitchen and living room, directly connected with the terrace and pool (which offer an amazing view over the valley), spacious rooms and a lot of privacy. A house which clearly was well thought through: AC in every room, non-slippery tiles around the pool and in the showers, a covered outside dining area (great in the summer heat), wine fridge, quality glasses, plates and cutlery, and so on. And of course a warm welcome (and goodbye) by the friendly hosts. All you need for a great holiday!
