Comfortable two-bedroom flat with a spacious living room and a large, sunny terrace (32 sqm), in an elegant neomodern house with a big garden and private parking. Located on a hillside overlooking the sea, it is far enough from the hustle and bustle of Budva to offer peaceful rest, yet close enough to enjoy all that the town has to offer. With a newly asphalted access street and dedicated parking slot, the flat is perfect for motorized guests or those who enjoy an active vacation and walking.

The space

The flat is bright and pleasant, featuring triple orientation, panoramic vistas, and a large, south-facing terrace perfect for outdoor meals, sunbathing, and relaxation. It includes a spacious living room with a dining and kitchen area, one double bedroom with a queen-sized bed, one double bedroom with two single beds, and a small bathroom with a shower.

Guest access

Guests can access their apartment and terrace, private parking, and the upper garden.

This part of Budva is on a hillside, offering beautiful views and a special microclimate with a pleasant breeze. The encounter of the sea and mountain air currents gives it the qualities of a health resort. This also means that while walking to the sea and Old Town is easy, the return journey is more challenging. It takes about 15 minutes to walk to the closest beach, about 20 minutes to walk back (manageable even for my 3-year-old niece), and 30-35 minutes to the Old Town.

There are at least three routes to the house, so you can choose your preferred incline or opt for a car or taxi if you are tired or it’s too hot. Budva is a small town, mostly within a 2 km diameter, and taxis are quite affordable when called.

The rapid urbanization of Budva has not been followed by an appropriate infrastructure and public space development. The east access to the house, preferable for walkers, has not been asphalted recently, and the walks are not as scenic as they once were.

Neighbourhood

Situated in a small multifamily building with its own garden and private parking, the flat is in the most peaceful part of Budva called Lazi. Lazi, pl. means assarts, or cleared forest land, and it denotes what we first met here: beautiful terraced fields, supported by dry stone walls. Ours was the best field in Lazi, with old fig trees for shade, and there was a forest behind our house. Going to the west and the Monastery, there still is an old olive grove, but the neighbourhood, planned once to become a climatic health resort and green residential oasis, now features many multifamily buildings erected in the past twenty years.

Getting around

We are located in Budva, the metropolis of Montenegrin tourism. It is most accessible from the airports of Tivat (TIV, 20 km), Podgorica (TGD, 40 km) and Dubrovnik (DBV, 100 km). Budva has railway connections with Europe through the Belgrade - Bar rail line. The nearest railway stations are Sutomore (35 km), Bar (40 km) and Podgorica (65 km).

The house is just a 10-15' walk from the main bus station, and it takes about 15' to walk to the closest beaches (1.3 km) and 20-30' to the city centre (2.0 km) and the Old Town (2.3 km). Free parking is available on the premises. Alternatively, there is cheap taxi service in the town. High season rates are these: on call 0.00 or 1.00€/start + 1.00€/km; stopped in street 1.00/start + 1.8/km - check it before the ride and be sure the taximeter is on.

This place is an ideal base for motorized guests to explore Budva Riviera. From here, you can easily visit more than twenty beaches - Slovenska (1.3 km), Guvance (1.8 km), Bečići (2.4 km), Mogren (2.8 km) etc. within walking distance, and Jaz (4 km), Kamenovo, Pržno, Miločer, Sveti Stefan (6 km) and other by car. Close by are the towns of Tivat, Kotor, Perast and Petrovac, and the monasteries in between (one, Maine, in the closest neighbourhood). For a daily trip, you may choose to go to Herceg Novi and Dubrovnik to the west, and Skadar Lake, Ulcinj and Ada Bojana to the east.

Interaction with guests

Someone from the family will be on the premises during your stay. We stay on the lower ground floor, with a private entrance and garden. This will give you privacy, and at the same time the welcoming, advice and company if you wish them, and help if you need anything. Needless to say, we are always available through this system, by email or phone.

Other things to note

The flat is on the upper ground floor and one flight of exterior stairs leads to the entrance door.

The fence on the house has horizontal bars and the terrace opens up to the slab of an unfinished twin building, which makes it unsafe for small children.

If your group has more than four people, feel free to ask or check my listings - another apartment might be available in the same house.

According to Montenegrin law, a tourist tax of 1,00 euro per person per night is obligatory and must be paid in person within 24 hours from arrival at any town tourist info office, using the data provided in your itinerary for registration.
