Enquire nowThe Coastal Montenegro / Boka Kotorska Fjord region
Herceg Novi sits facing the entrance to all of the beautiful Boka Bay. The region has become increasingly popular over recent years, recapturing some of its fame from the 1960's when it was a destination for film stars and their entourages.
It is a peaceful country and really on the 'up' , with massive property development in the Budva Riviera region providing work for many and a major employment and opportunity boom for people from far and wide, not just locals.
Boka Bay has had a more paced role in this revival of tourism, and retains its charm and scenery to a high degree. The area around Kotor has many new developments, as has Denovici and its neighbours. Generally speaking these fit in reasonable well, with a few exceptions.
There are dozens of places to visit and really something for everyone more or less everywhere in peak season, with Herceg Novi being a focus for local life in the quieter months around the bay, followed by Kotor

The Herceg Novi area
The Old Town of Herceg Novi is awash with history of its rich seafaring past. The present seafaring is of a more relaxing nature, with small boats to take you to little beaches and tiny resorts such as Rose on the Lutica peninsula, and the local children's sailing club lessons. At night you can see the fishing boats lights as they comb the entrance to Boka Kotorska for fish, which are on every restaurant menu daily.
The promenade from the harbour along the coast stretches for miles, dotted with cafes restaurants and dozens of places to swim, some cafe beaches with 'waiter service' in peak season. There are loungers and parasols to hire
Herceg Novi is a safe and friendly place, popular with families and people of all ages in peak season, but with 'normal life' continuing through out the year. There always seems to be a new event taking place, film festival, book fair, children's performances, concerts, parades and so forth around the town no matter what time of year you visit.
It is obvious when you visit Herceg Novi that it enjoys an exceptional climate. It is a micro- climate with excellent conditions for Mediterranean foliage and a history of seafarers bringing sample plants to grow in their home town. Thus leafy and green with many long established trees and pretty parks - providing a freshness in hot summer time unlike anywhere else in Montenegro.

This was our first trip to Montenegro and we have fallen head over heels in love with the place. This has to be one of the most beautiful countries in Europe and a total hidden gem.The scenery is... more |

The lower apartment is extremely comfortable, spacious and very well catered for. It was wonderful opening up the shutters each morning and seeing the stunning views out over the bay. The old town, with its charming market, cafes and restaurants, is just a few minutes away from the apartment. We loved walking along the seafront finding our perfect beach (and ice cream!) from the wonderful selection that lies along the coast. We also highly recommend a day trip to Rose with one of the many boatmen that can be found in the harbour and spending a relaxing day in the quiet town across the bay. Whilst there are many things to see and do around Herceg Novi the apartment is perfect for just relaxing on the terrace - whether sunbathing during the day or having a candlelit dinner overlooking the great views. Cannot recommend Zuta Kuca enough! |
