Mala Duba is a hidden gem of Makarska riviera, tiny village 20 mins from Makarska, ideal if you want peace and quiet. The property itself is a typical Croatian apartment house; fit to description. The room was cozy (read tiny at 19 m^2) but well sufficient for two adults. Kitchennette suited more for reheating than any sort of cooking but that’s to be expected. The apartment was lovely in pictures, but quite worn out despite seemingly recent renovation (cracked shower glass, damaged bathroom cupboards from water, faux leather peeling off on the bed…) and the owners “invested” into IKEA equipment, which I have nothing against, but the spring mattress was a really bad choice. Other than that, no real complaints on the equipment; all fit the description and worked well for us. We stayed for 8 days and what surprised us is we asked for fresh bed sheets and towels half way through and we were told it’s an extra charge. No complaint there, we agreed to the charge, yet it was surprising given the length of the stay. One thing that really bothered us though - the house has a ground floor restaurant with both indoor and outdoor seating; indoor is non-smoking, outdoors they have 3 tables (small terrace) right in front of the property underneath the balcony of our room and smoking was allowed there, with all smoke going straight to our room (A4). It defeats the purpose of having a non-smoking room entirely, which is a pity, especially when the second larger terrace also allows smoking.

The food was incredible for a buffet I was very impressed. Get the room with the swim up pool it’s the most amazing experience.
