Its rooms, suites, and villas are chic, spacious, and exceptionally comfortable, while the views of the Bay of Kotor are extraordinarily calming.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
The resort sits in Portonovi marina, with the limestone peaks and medieval villages of Boka Bay right across the water.
The rooms
Every room has a working fireplace inspired by Montenegrin houses, and floor-to-ceiling glass looks straight across the bay.
The pools
Bring a swimsuit.
A vaulted 26-meter indoor lap pool sits under illuminated arches, and outdoor infinity pools stretch toward the bay.
The spa
Bespoke programmes combine traditional Chinese medicine with Western diagnostics, hydrotherapy circuits, and a whole-body cryotherapy chamber.
Dogs stay too.
At the table
Tapasake serves Japanese fusion beneath sculptural chandeliers, and open-air terraces plate fresh Adriatic seafood along the bay.

How it began
