TUI BLUE Adriatic Beach and TUI BLUE Medulin have all inclusive with buffet, snacks throughout the day and an \u00e0-la-carte restaurant each. If you&#8217;d like flexibility between buffet and \u00e0 la carte, TUI BLUE Makarska is a good choice. If you prefer all inclusive and don&#8217;t want to constantly plan ahead, TUI BLUE Adriatic Beach or TUI BLUE Medulin fit well.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-2\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Do TUI BLUE hotels in Croatia have completely gluten-free kitchens?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>No. TUI BLUE hotels in Croatia aren&#8217;t entirely gluten-free establishments. There are gluten-free options at the buffet and \u00e0 la carte, but not a completely gluten-free kitchen. If you have coeliac disease, you should always enquire in advance and coordinate your requirements with the BLUE Guide Food &amp; Beverage at the hotel.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-3\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">How do I find gluten-free dishes at the buffet?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Dishes at the buffet are clearly labelled. Additionally, the BLUE Guide Food &amp; Beverage on-site will help you find suitable options and choose with confidence. Through the BLUE App, you can orient yourself before your trip and browse menus.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-4\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Can I request gluten-free food in advance?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Yes, and it&#8217;s highly advisable. You can contact the hotel through the BLUE App and communicate your requirements beforehand. At check-in, you should mention it again so the kitchen team is informed. For coeliac disease, enquiring before booking is particularly important.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-5\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Which hotel is the best choice for a peaceful holiday with gluten-free options?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>If peace and quiet is especially important to you, TUI BLUE Adriatic Beach fits well, as it&#8217;s somewhat secluded right by the sea and adults-only. TUI BLUE Makarska also sits peacefully in a small bay on the Makarska Riviera and offers swim-up rooms and an infinity pool with sea views. Both hotels are adults-only and focused on relaxation.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-6\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Are there gluten-free options in the \u00e0-la-carte restaurant too?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Yes. All three hotels have an \u00e0-la-carte restaurant called Culinarium. At TUI BLUE Makarska, you can dine there in addition to half board; at TUI BLUE Adriatic Beach and TUI BLUE Medulin, one visit per stay is included in all inclusive. The BLUE Guide Food &amp; Beverage will help you select suitable dishes. Menus feature labels printed alongside the dishes.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-7\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Which hotel suits well if I want to combine excursions with gluten-free dining?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>TUI BLUE Medulin in Istria is a good base for excursions, as you can quickly reach Cape Kamenjak, Pula with its Roman amphitheatre and charming coastal villages. The hotel offers all inclusive with buffet and \u00e0-la-carte restaurant, so you can stay flexible. TUI BLUE Makarska is also close to Makarska, Igrane and the Biokovo mountains and lends itself to excursions.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-8\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">How does the BLUE App help me with gluten-free dining?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Through the BLUE App, you can browse menus before your trip, discover restaurants and contact the hotel. This way you can communicate your wishes in advance and start your holiday with confidence. The app helps you get oriented and arrive well prepared.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-9\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">What should I bear in mind with coeliac disease?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>With coeliac disease, you should always enquire before booking whether the hotel can meet your requirements. TUI BLUE hotels in Croatia aren&#8217;t entirely gluten-free establishments, so individual coordination is particularly important. Mention your requirements again at check-in and with the BLUE Guide Food &amp; Beverage on-site.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-10\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \">Which hotel has swim-up rooms and gluten-free options?<\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>TUI BLUE Makarska and TUI BLUE Adriatic Beach both offer swim-up rooms. At TUI BLUE Makarska, you glide straight from your terrace into the water each morning with views of the islands and mountains. The hotel offers half board with buffet and \u00e0-la-carte restaurant. At TUI BLUE Adriatic Beach, you have all inclusive with buffet, snacks and \u00e0-la-carte restaurant. Both hotels support you with gluten-free dining through labelling and the BLUE Guide Food &amp; Beverage.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gluten-free dining on holiday in Croatia: these TUI BLUE hotels make it possible<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":59467,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"loftocean_post_format_gallery":"","loftocean_post_format_gallery_ids":"","loftocean_post_format_gallery_urls":"","loftocean_post_format_video_id":0,"loftocean_post_format_video_url":"","loftocean_post_format_video_type":"","loftocean_post_format_video":"","loftocean_post_format_audio_type":"","loftocean_post_format_audio_url":"","loftocean_post_format_audio_id":0,"loftocean_post_format_audio":"","loftocean-featured-post":"","loftocean-like-count":0,"loftocean-view-count":6,"loftocean-enable-content-navigation":"","loftocean-content-navigation-position":"","loftocean-content-navigation-heading":"","loftocean-content-navigation-label":"","loftocean-content-navigation-icon":"","loftocean-map-location":"","loftocean-map-latlng":"","loftocean-map-auto-latlng":"","eaven_single_post_hide_thumbnail":"","eaven_single_post_template":"","eaven_single_post_sidebar":"","eaven_hide_before_page_content_ad":"","eaven_hide_after_page_content_ad":"","eaven_advanced_classname":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[208],"tags":[672,1639],"class_list":{"0":"post-59485","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-food","8":"tag-croatia","9":"tag-gluten-free"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59485","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=59485"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59485\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":59497,"href":"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59485\/revisions\/59497"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/59467"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=59485"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=59485"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.tui-blue.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=59485"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
