Accommodation

 

Notes on accommodation
The apartment is spacious and very comfortable and is equipped to a high standard. Wide range of kitchen utensils and equipment. It is the only apartment in the complex with shutters on the windows, meaning the apartment can be kept very cool during the summer months. It is also used as a holiday home by the English owners and is managed by a very reliable English owned company who are based locally. They will provide a 'meet and greet' service and be your main point of local contact for the duration of your stay. We provide a comprehensive information pack and are happy to give recommendations, if you would like them, before your holiday. The apartment is ideal for either a group of friends sharing and/or families.

 

Accessibility
The apartment is located uphill from the Bay, hence the wonderful views. Access is via steps.

Outside
Due to the apartment’s elevated position the views are marvellous. The balcony is a perfect place to take in the scenery whilst enjoying breakfast or a sundowner and has good quality outdoor furniture. There is a landscaped garden with 2 swimming pools - one with a children's section and the other with a jacuzzi. All have stunning views over the Bay to Kotor old town.

The whole complex and grounds are well maintained by the on-site team and the pool is filled and maintained daily throughout May – September.

Coast/Beach
The apartment is a two-minute walk to the water's edge, where there is access to the water for safe swimming and fishing in Kotor Bay. Sandy beaches are within 25 minutes' drive. A day out on a boat is a fantastic experience, enabling you to visit small villages, blue grotto caves, restaurants and beaches or take in a romantic sunset. We can recommend responsible boat owners who can take you out on either a sailing or speed boat.

Golf
There is a new driving range at Lustica Bay (20 minutes by car) and Gary Player-designed golf course is being planned there.

Skiing
Muo is only a couple of hours drive from the ski resorts of Zabljak and Kolasin, as well as the stunning River Tara canyon - home to some of the best white water rafting in Europe.

Special interest holidays
As well as relaxing on the shore of beautiful Kotor Bay, absorbing the stunning mountain scenery, the area has plenty to offer to those who enjoy the great outdoors: water skiing, wake boarding, pleasure boating, fishing, snorkiling, diving, hiking, whitewater rafting and mountain biking are all close at hand. In addition, there are beautiful hilltop walks, rock climbing, parasailing and hang gliding. For those who want great night life, the nearby town of Budva provides the main action!

Further details
Everyone who visits Montenegro seems to fall in love with it. There is something for everyone, whether you are looking for history, art and culture, for wild adventure or for poolside relaxation. The people are warm and friendly and have a very strong culture of family. English is reasonably widely spoken. You can spend time exploring old fishing villages or travel further afield for rafting, hiking, riding, skiing and mountain biking. Local cuisine and wine are superb and portions are generous! Montenegro uses the Euro and prices are generally 30% cheaper than you would find in Spain or Italy. There are many cafes and restaurants in which you can enjoy long, lazy meals or lively music and conversation. Within walking distance of the apartment are a number of lovely 'konobas' and tavernas. If you are looking for adventure you can kayak, jet-ski, wake board, go whitewater rafting or sailing. Or if you just want peace and relaxation, Montenegro has a lovely climate and you can chill out by the pool throughout the long, hot summer months.

Kotor Bay is a place of stunning natural beauty. It is the southern-most fjord in Europe and is a vast butterfly-shaped expanse of water surrounded by breathtaking mountain scenery. Kotor Bay is remarkable for its wonderful coastal scenery and the many pretty villages and towns that dot the shoreline. Kotor Old Town is one of the most exquisitely preserved medieval centres in Southern Europe. The awe-inspiring 12th century city walls climb 200m up the sheer mountain face and form an impressive backdrop to Kotor's annual Venetian carnival.

Guest comments
"Frances and I just wanted to let you know what a wonderful time we had in your lovely apartment. It more than lived up to our expectations and the view was stunning. We could have easily just sat on the balcony all day looking at the view. But we didn't, we used our time to travel around lots of the beaches and of course go to Tivat and Budva and even down as far as Sveti Stefan. Apart from one day the weather was perfect, enabling us to make use of the pool, the sea and the Fjord. All in all one of the best holidays we have had so congratulations on finding such an ideal spot, we would certainly like to go again and will recommend it to our friends.” Stephen & Frances, UK

"We had a seriously good time. Lots of positives: view from apartment, pool (plus bar) location, 10 min walk to supermarket, loads of taxis which are very cheap (makes getting around easy and stress free) apartment (well kitted out, spacious)." Mike & Daniela, UK
