: That's quite close, but that 'r' is a bit funny :). Also, make sure you click the Serbian pronunciation icon, not the English one!

Thanks Mark! Oh well, that's the best I could think of to help, it is close enough. :-) Yes, the icon for Serbian pronunciation, of course.

Comment: "Thanks a lot. I knew this feature of Google but did not sure if it was really a native pronunciation. I can believe it now thanks to your confirmation."

/brzet͡ɕe/
It is /brzet͡ɕe/, but I don't know how much that is going to help you - not the most tourist-friendly name for a tourist destination, it is true.
Anglicised, I would render it something like: brr-ze-che (avoiding the temptation to pronounce -ze- and -che too much as -zay- and -chay, but that wouldn't be TOO far wrong either)

Example sentence:
"I am going to Brzeće for my holidays this winter" "Say again?!"
