About this villa rental

Situated in Kotor Municipality, this charming villa for $923 per night is a fantastic choice for your next vacation. The 400 year-old heritage property has been fully restored and modernised to provide all the comforts of 21st century living, while retaining all the charm of its long history. Located high up on the Lustica peninsula, the villa has dramatic, 180-degree views of the Bay of Kotor and the twin massifs of the Orjen and Lovcen mountains, and is nestled on a peaceful hillside surrounded by olive groves, small stone hamlets and fishing villages. This villa features a seasonal outdoor 10m salt pool, dry cleaning, and laundry facilities. Free WiFi and parking are also provided. Additionally, a garden, barbecue grills, and a private pool are on site. The villa benefits from a daily housekeeping service. This villa offers 5 air-conditioned bedrooms, which are accessible via separate entrances and feature private en-suites and safes. Each bedroom is individually decorated with a combination of English and continental antique and contemporary furniture. There is a large sitting room with comfortable sofas, and a wood burning stove, a spacious and modern kitchen dining room comfortably seating 12, and a sizeable first floor veranda for outdoor dining, with stunning views onto the rural landscape and the sea beyond. The terraced garden, which is planted with typical Mediterranean plans, herbs and trees, includes a 10 meter infinity pool, a large stone paved sun terrace, and a shady pergola made from parts of the original wooden olive press that was in use until less than twenty years ago. The pergola also includes a basic summer kitchen with fridge and BBQ. Guests will not want to leave this stunning hillside sanctuary, but should they want to, the medieval UNESCO protected seaside fortress town of Kotor, the idyllic Venetian republic maritime towns of Rose and Perast, and the glitz of Porto Montenegro, Europe's largest super-yacht marina, with its clubs, boutiques, spas and restaurants, are all a short drive away. The house is well served by local restaurants serving fresh local fish and seafood and supermarkets, and there are several beaches within a 15 minute drive. The villa is a perfect get away location in the autumn/winter "off season" with a wood burning stove, a well stocked wood-shed, first class bedding/ soft furnishings shipped from London, and a variety of mountain walks/hiking nearby ( as well as skiing in the mountains to the North).

This is a really nice villa in a quiet location – lots of character and very well equipped. We were a party of 10 and had a great stay here. The outside space met our high expectations, with great views along the Kotor peninsula. The pool was a bit chilly (as one would expect in May) but after a couple of brisk lengths it was fine! There were enough loungers for all the party and space to move them around to face the sun all day. The housekeeping service was a bonus, Marija called in twice a day and was discreet and efficient. The owners, William and Jonathan sent out some very comprehensive information on the Villa and local amenities prior to our arrival which was very helpful, and they contacted us via email during our stay to check all was ok. There was a couple of little things we needed assistance with and that was taken care of immediately – thank you! We were very impressed with Montenegro; it is a stunning country! There’s plenty enough to see and do: Tivat harbour with the super-yachts and waterfront restaurants, Kotor Old Town, etc and there’s some very decent local restaurants. Overall, our holiday was a big success and Villa Stari was an excellent choice

Wonderful stay at an amazing villa. The views from the pool and outdoor seating area are mesmerising. The way the villa is laid out makes it feel like a boutique hotel, with seperate bedrooms, each with an ensuite every room as lovely as the others. The villa was so well equipped with everything we needed & a great bbq which we enjoyed on a few occassions. Marija the housekeeper was also a great addition to the villa, she went above and beyond to help us on a couple of occassions and it was great to have our rooms and the communal areas cleaned each day. Montenegro is a great country we saw lots of different things and went on some great day trips. Includung to nearby Kotor, Budva, Lake Skadar, a local olive oil tasting, porto montenegro and explored the lustica peninsular, so even though we visited out of season, and the weather wasn’t great there was so much to see & do. The villa owners also provided a great guide about the villa and surrounding area with lots of recommendations that we used. Our whole party loved our stay & cannot imagine staying at a nicer villa anywhere.

Excellent venue, stylishly refurbished, with all mod-cons and exceptional views of the surrounding bay. Car essential. House and grounds immaculately clean and cared for by very friendly, but unobtrusive lady caretaker. Comprehensive guide on the local surrounds and places to visit. Particularly recommend the local tour or the local olive grower, and other suggestions by the owners. One of the rare places we have stayed in that we would go back to.
