Overview
A beautiful stone villa located in Bogišići, the 3-bedroom Villa Vrmac enjoys stunning views of Boka Bay, Tivat and the mountains of Vrmac and Lovćen. You can enjoy one of Montenegro’s most spectacular regions with your base at this impressive property which features a large infinity pool.
Beside the pool, you have a spacious, split-level terrace, incorporating a lovely, covered dining area with stunning views of the mountains. There is seating and a selection of sun loungers a little closer to the poolside, and the landscaped gardens provide peace and privacy. The beautiful Plavi Horizonte beach, a sandy beach backed by pine trees, is just a 5-minute drive away.
There’s an international feel to this villa, with décor inspired by Spain and North Africa, and this is evident inside and out. The interiors benefit from lots of natural light, with double-aspect, floor-to-ceiling windows also showcasing the gorgeous setting.
You have a comfortable, open-plan living area with ample seating and balcony access, as well as a dining area with six places around the circular table. The sleek, black and white kitchen provides all you need, including a dishwasher, microwave and plenty of cookware. You can also enjoy a 32” HD TV and free Wi-Fi.
There are three bedrooms – a king, queen and twin. With relaxed, boho styling, these rooms each have the use of their own bathroom. Tiled floors throughout the house keep things extra-comfortable.
With an upmarket marina on the Bay of Kotor, the town of Tivat is one of Montenegro’s most glamorous locations. The small village of Bogišići is around 20 minutes’ drive away, at the entrance to the beautiful Lustica Peninsula. The Old Town of Kotor itself is a similar distance away, and is one of the region’s undoubted highlights.
Not far away, be sure to explore the glorious Lovćen National Park – just one Montenegro’s many spectacular natural sights – and experience the splendour of Perast, one of the most beautiful towns on the Adriatic.

Location
About the surrounding area of Villa VrmacOffering upmarket shopping and nightlife, along with gourmet dining and a 450-berth, full-service marina, Tivat is Montenegro’s most overtly glamorous location. Events like fashion shows, luxury brand launches and wine tastings are typical of this town on the Bay of Kotor’s happenings.
Kotor’s Old Town also sits on the bay, and its rugged mountain backdrop and stunning views over the water are nothing short of breathtaking. Watersports are popular on the River Skurda, or you can enjoy a boat trip out to the beautiful Blue Cave and go snorkelling there.
In the Old Town, look out for St Tryphon’s Cathedral, plenty of churches and the popular Cat Museum. The town is known for its much-loved street cats, and by visiting the museum you’ll be able to contribute to their care. Kotor’s popularity as a visitor destination can mean it gets busy when the cruise ships drop off their passengers for the day, so you may have a quieter time later in the evening.
There’s much more to see along Montenegro’s beautiful coast. Busy Budva’s highlights include its own charming Old Town, along with the upscale Dukley Marina area. For kids, the family-friendly Aquapark is the biggest waterpark in the Balkans and packed with all sorts of fun rides. There are numerous great beaches, such as Petrovac, ideal for water sports, and Velika Plaza in Ulcinj, which at 12km long is reckoned to be the longest beach in Europe.
South of Budva, you’ll find the super-photogenic Sveti Stefan, a private island which is closed to all but the guests of the resort which occupies it. You can still snap it from a distance, however, if you head for the beaches across the causeway.
Montenegro’s many areas of incredible natural beauty may not be widely known, but they are sure to enchant you, notably the National Parks of Lovćen, Durmitor and Lake Skadar, an ideal place for birdwatchers and wild swimmers.
Other unmissable sights include the biggest canyon in Europe, Tara Canyon. Situated in the north of the country, not far from the border with Bosnia & Herzegovina, it’s quite a drive from the Bay of Kotor but this UNESCO World Heritage Site is impressive enough to make the effort, especially if you’re into rafting or zip-lining.

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.
Prior to Booking
As many of our regions in Montenegro are coastal, there can sometimes be some adverse weather. This tends to only really occur outside of the Peak Season though. When thinking about booking your holiday to Montenegro, please consult Foreign travel advice for more information.
Entry Requirements
Tourists who are British Citizens will not require a visa upon arrival, unless their stay lasts longer than 90 days. Please check Entry Requirements before departure.
Getting ThereSveti Stefan, Bar & Ulcinj are served by Tivat Airport and Podgorica Airport. Please note that Tivat is a smaller International Airport, which can experience overcrowding in Peak Season. Due to its proximity to Orjen & Lovćen Mountains, flights are sometimes re-directed to Podgorica Airport or cancelled in the case of bad weather.
From the UK:
Direct flights are available from London on Montenegro Airlines, easyJet, TUI, Ryanair and many others. Chartered flights are also available from several other UK airports.
From Dubrovnik, Croatia:
Connecting flights are available from Dubrovnik Airport to Podgorica Airport.
By Bus:
GetByBus operates from Dubrovnik, Tivat and Podgorica to Sveti Stefan, Bar & Ulcinj. Journeys can take up to 4 hours and 45 minutes.
Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesThe beautiful Bay of Kotor has plenty that children will love, starting with the town of Kotor itself. You’ll find lots of family-friendly restaurants, parks and interesting attractions in this spectacularly positioned town. Look out for the street cats and the Cat Museum, as well as Kotor’s Medieval Museum for a look at Montenegro’s past. If they’re into history, take a trip to the town of Risan to see its Roman ruins and mosaics –it’s only a 20-minute drive away.
In the summer, Kotor hosts the Festival of Theatre for Children, which brings plenty of entertainment and interactive classes and workshops to town. Another highlight of the summer months is the Kotor Arts Festival, incorporating Boka Night. This popular celebration includes food, music, dancing and a fireworks finale.
Another way to see the Bay of Kotor at its best is to walk the city walls. These extend up into the mountains so it’s a bit of a hike be sure to take some water and snacks to keep you and the kids refreshed.
Love nature? Then head to a National Park – Montenegro has several, including Durmitor, Biogradsko and Lake Skadar, and there are all sorts of trails to follow and wildlife to see. Tara Canyon, a truly spectacular location to try a bit of white-water rafting, is over 3 hours’ drive from Tivat, but as the world’s second-biggest, after the Grand Canyon, it’ll be an unforgettable adventure.
There are more adventures to be had, and much closer, at the adventure park inside Lovćen National Park. The kids can swing through the trees on rope bridges, or zoom through them on a zip-line. With special trails suitable for younger children, this amazing park has something for all ages – it’s just under one hour from Tivat.
Meanwhile, the resort of Budva is home to a large Aquapark, which is around 30 minutes away, and the Lunapark fun fair which is close to the beach. If you spend the day in Montenegro’s capital, Podgorica, you can enjoy go-karting, an adventure park and an animal sanctuary. The cascading Cijevna Waterfalls, where there is also a restaurant and play area, are also a short drive from the city.

Well-kept modern villa
When you book the villa, you get what you pay for: a clean, well-kept modern villa with quality fittings and lovely, personal decoration.
We have stayed in many holiday homes around the world. This ranks high in our top 10. Without repeating all the praise from previous reviewers, I'll say what you won't find in this villa: the junk that landlords don't need at home and "dispose of" in their vacation property.
A discovery is opposite the egg sale. They have chicken and duck eggs (mixed in a carton of 10) at a bargain price, sold by a friendly elderly, slightly odd gentleman who speaks surprisingly good English.
He also understands French and Italian. Just knock on the door.
We are not regulars anywhere, always looking for something new. But this is where we would return one day. -
Beautiful villa
Beautiful house well placed and well equipped (infinity pool) near the mouths of Kotor with a very nice view of the mouths.

Stunning
My husband and I and our three grown up daughters stayed at Vrmac Villa and had the most amazing time. We couldn't fault the villa! It was stunning with attention to detail in every room. The views from the main living space were spectacular, and the pool and it's surroundings were so lovely, peaceful and very private. We loved the main seating areas outside which made it so easy to relax all day long, whether in the sun or shade. We were so lucky as the weather was perfect the entire week we were there and we managed to explore the area and find many beautiful places. We would certainly come back again. Thank you Sally for a thoroughly lovely holiday at your villa.
