This exclusive and historic apartment is located within the ramparts of the splendid Old Town of Kotor; the best preserved and certainly the most beautiful medieval town in the region. This self catering holiday apartment is ideally located on the 1st floor (American 2nd) and close to the main square, restaurants, shops, cafes, Marina and beaches. Kotor boasts year round interest and is well known for hosting numerous festivals. This 140sqm newly renovated apartment is part of an old Venetian stone building with high ceilings and spacious rooms. Stepping into this magnificent apartment is like diving into the past, as the building was formerly a first class hotel frequented by many affluent and prominent individuals. The apartment overlooks Kotor’s narrow alleys, streets and charming stone palaces, villas and squares.
Kotor is sandwiched between the majestic Mount Lovcen and the sea, it contains churches, museums, Venetian architecture and a cathedral which dates back to 1166.

The town is a maize of cobbled streets and alleys with beautiful hidden squares and piazzas at every turn. Boat trips are available from the marina outside where there is also a daily fresh food market selling organic produce, which in the evenings, are replaced by stalls selling jewellery and trinkets. From within the Old Town are the steps up the old fortress for some of the most stunning views of the Boka Bay and the fjords which are the deepest in the Mediterranean. The Boka Kotorska Bay is also officially on the list as one of 'The Most Beautiful Bays in the World'.

Guest comments
"Thank you for allowing us to stay in your truly beautiful apartment. We have fallen in love with Kotor and hope to return with friends and stay in your amazing apartment again. Thank you."
We stayed with friends in this apartment for 2 weeks last summer and we had the most wonderful holiday. The apartment is in a great location being right in the heart of everything with the marina and wonderful restaurants and cafes. As for the apartment we couldn't believe our eyes when we stepped in! It was so amazing and spacious, and had everything we needed for our stay. Thank you once again!
My family has stayed in this apartment in June 2007 - it was one of the highlights of our trip through the Balkans! The apartment is new and clean, with all necessary features / appliances that one might need. It is right in the heart of old Kotor, but close to the main gate, Next time we will be in Kotor, I am sure we will be staying at this apartment again. Thank you for the great times!
