Overview
Stay by the edge of the seafront when you holiday in charming Villa Conch, overlooking the beautiful Boka Bay on the coast of Montenegro near the historic town of Kotor. Villa Conch can be found in the small seaside resort of Kostanjica, with direct access to the azure waters of the Adriatic Sea. This three-storey, detached villa has five spacious double bedrooms and can comfortably accommodate up to ten guests, ideal for a large family holiday or a group of friends going away together. The villa is set in its own verdant grounds and gardens, surrounded by sea on three sides, giving it a sense of seclusion and privacy. Villa Conch is constructed out of classic local stone bricks, with green shuttered windows and timbered ceilings, and comes with two garage parking spaces. The interiors are exquisite, tastefully furnished in a luxury country cottage style, and decorated in a calming, sophisticated colour palette of soft, muted earth tones.
Enter the villa at ground floor level, where you will be welcomed into a light, open-plan living space. The sitting room has a comfy cream sofa, a formal armchair, an antique trunk coffee table, and a wood-burning fireplace for those cooler months and evenings. The stone-arched dining room has an eight to ten-seater wooden table with smart dove grey chairs and would be a splendid spot for some impressive indoor entertaining. The library is excellent for relaxing and catching up with some holiday reading. The wood and white farmhouse style kitchen, with a double sink, is fully equipped with all the appliances that you will need to cater for your stay. A guest WC, bathroom, and laundry room complete the ground floor accommodation.
On the first and second floors are five beautifully-appointed double bedrooms and two modern tiled bathrooms with walk-in showers. Under the second floor’s eaves is a fun and fabulous painted children’s playroom. Villa Conch is surrounded by a delightful well-maintained garden, populated by tall shady trees and a manicured lawn. Strategically positioned sun loungers enjoy sea views, and soft seating spots are perfect for meeting for a morning coffee. Children can amuse themselves in the dedicated playground. Open the garden gate and take the ladder steps into the crystal clear waters of the Adriatic Sea, and if you are feeling adventurous, a speedboat can be arranged to take you and your guests on private excursions around the bay. As dusk falls, gather at the alfresco dining set, feast on local delicacies freshly grilled on the barbecue, and raise a toast to the most magical holiday.

Location
About the surrounding area of Villa ConchVilla Conch is situated at the seafront water’s edge in the charming village of Kostanjica, overlooking the beautiful Boka Bay on Montenegro’s Adriatic coast. The villa is a short twelve kilometres from the nearest international airport at Tivat, the manager of Villa Conch can arrange transfers or hire car for you and book excursions for your stay, including speed boat hire from the villa.
In the nearby authentic village of Kostanjica, you will find local stores with provisions to cater for your holidays, cafes and bars, and family-friendly seashore restaurants. Step into the Adriatic Sea from the grounds of your villa, a ladder will lead you into the crystal clear waters where you can swim and snorkel all day. Take a two-kilometre drive to Morinj, a picturesque seaside town with verdant mountain views, crystal clear springs and creeks, old watermills, and a pebble beach surrounded by shady forests. Keep going down the coast until you reach the enchanting old town of Perast, with the islets of St George and the six hundred-year-old, man-made Our Lady of the Rocks, complete with a church. Perast is noted for its historic Venetian Gothic mansions, a seashore promenade, the façade of a monastery with a bell tower, charming streets lined with churches, a few museums, and a beach with a pier.
Bajova Kula is the best beach in the vicinity, with a restaurant and bar, and much quieter than its neighbour. The must-see UNESCO-protected town of Kotor is only twenty-five kilometres from the villa. Wander down this fortified medieval old town’s winding streets to discover Venetian influence social squares, Romanesque churches, Kotor Cathedral, the Maritime Museum, and preserved city walls. Montenegro loves a festival in May to celebrate victory over the Turks at Gadjanje KoKota, with lots of music and dancing. In June, the International Klap Festival showcases traditional folk music, whilst in July, the Fasinada honours the Virgin Mary painting in Perast, with rock throwing at the island of Our Lady of the Rocks. The Kamenari to Lepetane ferry is three kilometres down the coast and cross the water to get to the Budva Riviera, famous for its soft sandy beaches and lively nightlife. Stroll the narrow streets to the historic old town, a seaside citadel surrounded by stone walls, and home to ninth-century churches. For those who fancy something more active, you can try white water rafting down the Tara River, speed boating, and jet skiing on the sea. For some culture, take a tour around the historic palaces of Bujovic, Viskovic, Smekja, and Sestokrilovic. Get back to nature with a walk around the Durmitor National Park and Black Lake. And if you fancy going further afield, you can even have a day trip to Dubrovnik.

About the Region & Getting There
About the Bay of Kotor
The Bay of Kotor, or Boka, has been a World Heritage Site since 1979, so be assured of its captivating scenery that includes; a Venetian old town, a Fortress, Roman Mosaics, churches and a glistening cove that all culminate to provide guests with an exceptional holiday destination.
Sailing through the fjord you will notice the Orjen Mountains along the west, and the Lovćen Mountain range curling around the east, which outline this spellbinding landscape. As you enter through the bay you are greeted by a man-made islet that is home to Our Lady of the Rocks Church and a museum. This is the first of many reminders that you are about to reach a region of Montenegro that is famed for its natural scenery and poignant architecture.
The Bay of Kotor is made up of four cornerstones - Lastva, Morinj, Stoliv and the most renowned Tivat. Within these villages you are able to find iconic landmarks such as St Petka Church and St Mary’s Church, or for something a little less pious; simply enjoy Tivat Marina and Gornji Stoliv’s Olive grove & Fig orchard.
Travel inland and strap on a pair of hiking boots as you explore Lovcen National Park. Although it is about an hours drive from the Bay, it really is worth the day trip! Whether you’re travelling with a Botanists, Ecologist, Entomologist or Zoologist; they will be pleased to know that there’s an immeasurable number of species that include birds, insects, bears, wolves and some breath-taking flora & fauna.
We urge holidaymakers to make the most of Kodor! This charming town has everything you need to forget the day-to-day tribulations of home life. Not only does this small medieval refuge have a host of cafes & restaurants, but there are some must see attractions like the Maritime Museum, the Cats Museum of Kotor, Cats of Kotor Shop and St. John’s Hill. The perfect retreat for a family in need of sun, sea & sentiment.

Best Suited For: All AgesYour kids will love a vacation in Villa Conch, situated on the shore of the Montenegro coast, overlooking the bay of Kotor. Villa Conch is situated on the seafront, with direct access into the crystal clear waters of the Adriatic Sea, where they can swim and splash all day. To keep them amused, the villa has an indoor children’s playroom at the top of the house and an outdoor one in the garden.
Two kilometres along the coast is the seaside town of Morinj, with crystal clear waters and cool springs for super swimming and snorkelling. Highly recommended for families is Markov Rt, with a long pebble beach, gradual entry shallow waters, sun loungers, and a café. The quaint village of Perast has an organised beach with a bar, and the must-see seaside town of Kotor has a sandy shore from which to swim. Take the boat from Perast pier to the man-made island of Our Lady of the Rocks, visit the iconic church, then back on board to explore the mysterious blue cave.
Go underwater with the Panorama Semi Submarine Experience, and see the local fish swim by. Take a speedboat tour around the islands, and stop off for a swim and snorkel. Join a Jeep Safari to see Gornji and Donji Stoliv in the Bay of Boka Kotorska, and walk the pebble road through the chestnut woods and olive groves to enjoy the panoramic vista over the Boka region when you reach the top.
Spend the day in Kotor, where your children will love the Museum of Cats, climbing the city walls, taking a cruise around the bay, seeing the old town on the Hop-on, Hop-off bus, playing in the Park Slobode playground, sampling local food in the farmer’s market, and walking the cobblestoned streets eating homemade ice cream.
Drive to the Durmitor National Park to see the Tara Canyon, Europe’s deepest canyon, best viewed from the air or by adrenalin-inducing water rafting down the river. While you are there, visit the Black Lake, where there are eighteen glacial lakes, where you can swim in the cool, clear waters in the summer. Go further afield and venture into Croatia, only thirty kilometres down to the coast to the historic city of Dubrovnik, walk the walls, and see where much of Game of Thrones and some of Star Wars was filmed.
