Beautiful hotel, staff friendly, great location and facilities - really impressive gym too! Missed out on a 5/5 as we stayed 4 nights and the room wasn’t cleaned once which I thought for circa £220 per night was a little disappointing. Plus watch out for the taxi’s - even the ones the hotel order for you are out to get you regarding charges.. ordered two taxi’s from reception for our friends and us to travel about half an hour up the bay… they were charged €40 - we got charged €70. Didn’t realise until after we sat down in the restaurant… poor form from the hotel recommending dodgy taxi services, spoke to others in the hotel and they had found the same so just go careful

Great stay
Breakfast buffet was very good, the staff were amazing in all areas of the hotel. The private beach was great and very relaxing. Room was a good size, but sometimes we missed the cleaning rounds as they came quite early. Overall a great experience and would come back.

This is a beautiful resort-style hotel that you can enjoy all day on luxurious private beach or by a shimmering blue-tiled infinity pool. The rooms are spacious with an exquisite panoramic view of Kotor Bay. However, there are some signs of tiring in both the maintenace of the rooms (pealing shower sealing) and senior staff members. For example, we chose this hotel to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary. We also decided to have our anniversary dinner at the hotel's Mudra Art Cuisine restaurant on the beach. We made reservations via the hotel's front desk. However, when we arrived all dressed up for our special occasion, we found the restaurant was closed! When we requested to speak with the hotel manager on two occasions he was unavailable and never contacted us via the contact information we provided. This is unacceptable for a hotel that positions itself as a 5-star hotel. Other than management not showing much care for its guests the rest of the experience was exceptional and I would definitely consider staying there again.

Need to up their game!
The service at the hotel from reception and beach club definitely does not come with a smile. I found the staff quite cold/unfriendly which was off putting for a solo traveller. I had to wait for an hour on my room and then there was a mix up with other bookings with same surname. Bed sheets were stained - these were changed but not a great overall start. Ahead of my stay I had asked to book a taxi transfer from Podgorica in advance and was told they don’t book taxis only transfers - what is the difference?! So I had to arrange myself. I also received no response to booking a spa treatment in advance. Breakfast was good but the restaurant and beach club are ridiculously overpriced. I don’t mind paying more for the setting but prices were almost double compared with local restaurants and bars.

Great hotel.... could be excellent wirh some basic changes! Good location, big, well equipped rooms, lovely pool and private beach. Just need a bit of staff training as its a bit hit and miss on service. The deluxe room was perfect except for light blackout...there is nothing to block out the light coming in via the bathroom so you do tend to wake very early!

Gorgeous hotel
Really beautiful hotel and the beach was gorgeous with such good food. All of the staff there were great and really helpful. The room was lovely, such comfortable pillows and bed and the views from the whole hotel are stunning. The area is gorgeous with the mountains, such good restaurants as well within 5-10mn walk. The only things that can be improved is the breakfast food because the hot food is cold and they don’t refill water in the room, there are also no towels at the beach in the afternoon so you have to take from your room. But regardless, next time I come to Kotor i’ll definitely stay here again.

Whoever rated this a 5-star should lose it’s job
The room was very spacious. King-sized bed, double sinks in the bathroom, very good water pressure in the shower and a living room area adjancent the balcony. Two little details that irritated us about the room, though: two TVs responding simultaneously to same remote and no hand soap. We would say that we experienced four (4) major setbacks : 1) the pools were emptied during our entire stay. As we had booked this hotel specifically for the pools, this was a major drawback. 2) the front desk staff. No responsiveness at all and no signs of caring for the satisfaction of guests (we interacted many times with them). 3) the breakfast was not only underwhelming food-wise, but very chaotic service-wise. It was not the typical buffet-style breakfast offer that was servced, but more of a “à la carte” offer, which was all-included. This, significantly slowed-down the service. On top of that, the wait staff was very disorganized and not efficient. When it comes to the food iteslf, the quality left a lot te be desired for. Main example to give are the eggs benedict, which were served on a plain, untoasted hamburger bun, with a very small egg and a spoonful of hollandaise sauce. It is worthy of a 13-year-old cooking feat. 4) on our second day, the room cleaning crew did not visit our room. When we called reception, they promptly brought towels… but this is again, not to a 5-star hotel standard.

Fab stay - bonus private beach
I really loved my stay. The private beach is a real bonus. The beach club is very friendly and I could always get a lounger. The reception staff were very friendly. The hotel is a 35 minute walk to Kotor but taxis come very quickly and cost around €6. I found it a great base to explore Montenegro and somewhere great to come back to.

Although the exterior of the hotel and the facility was really nice, our actual stay was not very convenient. The room was only clean with a complementary water bottle on the day we arrived. The remaining 4 days it was not clean at all. The cleaning staff are terrible. The floor and the shower and bathroom was never cleaned . It was dirty. The only thing she did was makes up the bed and place new towels. Without cleaning anything. The bathrobe was not replaced since day one and when I asked for another one it took an hour and three follow up calls to get it and when they brought it to me it has a brown make up stain on it. It's very far from the city center and old town of kotor. A long walking distance more than 30 minutes. So location is not very convenient. And it's not easy to find a bus to downtown. You can check google map for the location. When we asked them for complementary water for the next 3 days they refused and informed us to just buy it from the bar and we wanted it for the coffee in the room. On our checkout day one of the staff was cleaning the hotel outside the window of our room with a very noisy device that's like a water spray at 6:30 in the morning and we woke up too early that day because of the noise. Not considerate to the guests with this noise at 6:30 am!!! Overall terrible experience I would never recommend it or even consider going to that hotel again!

This was a beautiful hotel in a beautiful setting. The staff were generally ok, breakfast waitress was lovely and the receptionists were helpful, but there were a few things not so good. The room was not serviced during our stay. There was no coffee in the room, there was no milk available for the room. The handle on our balcony door was missing so we had to change room, but this took a long time trying to communicate because the staff were not good with english. It felt like the hotel wanted our money but didn't want to enhance our stay. It was walkable to other cafe bars and we had much more welcome from these bars and restaurants than we felt we had from our 5* hotel.

Reception is beautiful, staff were friendly. We had a great room with a view of the bay and it was nice and quiet. The room was lacking in coffee/tea. The restaurant onsite is very expensive! I would recommend dining offsite, but there are only a few options within walking distance.

Four night stay
Stayed for 4 nights, the staff were very friendly and accommodatinng, and the facilities are very good. it is a 35 minute walk to the old town which is worth seeing. Swimming in the sea was really nice and the water temperature was lovely. However a wedding was booked whilst we were there which meant the the infinity pool and area were out of bounds along with a beach reasturant including part of the beach. We spoke to the hotel staff who offered a good will gesture, but really i would expect All facilities to be available. I think they suffered with staffing as room service was not done one day.

It s a new property, which always comes with the need to figure things out, however we never felt that they don't have everything in control. Thank you for everything during our stay, and to everyone, especially Dimitri, who went beyond his obligations to make us feel so extremely welcomed and taken care of.

Beautiful hotel and one of the best options in Kotor Bay with it’s own private beach. The wording of the listing is wrong though, it says free beach cabanas but they were actually 300 euros per day.

The property was beautiful and the facilities are excellent. Location was great, 30mins walk into the old town. The only thing that let this property down was the treatment of guests. It was clear that if you were not staying in a suite or beach house you did not receive the same level of attention or welcoming which was a shame (even down to not getting a tour of the property!) We still very much enjoyed our stay.

It's not a 5 star hotel
The positives: Most of the staffs are very nice, and the hotel does have a great view, beach and swimming pool and nice breakfast Negatives: Classic double bedroom is on Floor -1 with 2 sad windows, that makes me feel like living in a basement, and also probably the worst dining experience, they have a Japanese restaurant, we waited 2 hrs for our order which was like 12-15 pieces of sushi in total and it was way overpriced! The guy worked at the restaurant forgot to bring plates and chopsticks after 2 reminders, and when we were questioning about the bill he just walked away....

Ours was a 4-day stay, perfect location, only hotel with a private beach which was always kept clean and manned, quick service, reasonable prices. Beach party on Saturday had the best DJs ever! Decent crowd of people, yummy breakfasts. Do spend a bit more and definitely book a room w sea view, worth every penny! Can wholeheartedly recommend despite super slow room service :)

average stay in beautiful location
Potentially could be very good hotel but currently is far from 5 star standard. We arrived 2 hours before check in and were told to come back after 3pm. Room was not ready when we arrived back after 3pm even though Reception was aware that were at the property. Air conditioning stopped working on first night and took a good while to be fixed. Bathroom fan had no cover and was on for good 5 mins each time bathroom was used. There was local water shortage one of the mornings but no water bottles were delivered to rooms and we had to ask for them! On top of that instant coffee was served for breakfast!!! During our 2 night stay, there were only 2 nespresso pods left and they were not replaced. No bottled water in rooms. Incredibly overpriced food and drinks! On upside their beach is perhaps one of the best around Kotor and has the best view! Some of the best restaurants in Kotor are nearby.
