Reviews
Wonderful!
4.8/5 -
(25 traveler reviews)
Everything we needed for a comfortable stay!
We stayed for a week at Whitsun - the apartment catered for all our needs as a family with two children (aged 10 & 13). The balcony view is breathtaking - you can never tire of the view of Kotor Bay. Muo is situated within easy walking distance of beautiful Kotor town, however taxis are readily available and cheap for those not up for walking!
The swimming pool was great, and although there are nearer local beaches on the immediate shoreline our children preferred Jaz and Przno which are about 25 min drive away.
Montenegro is a wonderful country and this apartment is well equipped and situated perfectly to explore the surrounding area. Would highly recommend this apartment and would love to return. Thank you Paul for an unforgettable stay. Thank you Vesna for your warm hospitality.
Lovely apartment with great views
We stayed in July as a family of 4, 2 adults, and children aged 9 & 12.
Apartment Pros
* Our flight was over 3 hours late. Vesna the agent made contact and was there to meet us. Helpful and friendly. A food welcome pack of water, milk, wine, beer and chocolates was appreciated as we hadn't stopped at a supermarket.
* Kitchen was fully equipped with everything needed including tea and coffee, dish washer, cloths etc. Plenty of cups and plates.
* Clean throughout, good standard of furniture, bedding and decoration and washing machine.
* Good air con in main bedroom
* Quality towels and toiletries
* Allocated parking space in carpark above apartment (1f)
* Great views of the old town and bay.
* Wifi
* Good sized and clean pool area
* 20 minutes walking distance to old town of Kotor.
Apartment Cons - Things that personally didn't work so well for us, but don't prevent a 5* review.
* No air con in second bedroom - 2 fans provided though - doors can be left open to get benefit of lounge aircon.
* Double bed in second bedroom. Older children found it difficult to share! Twin beds would be more useful for most families.
* Pool area is up across the car parking area and up steps. Hadn't realised that it wasn't adjacent to apartment building. Consequently, we probably spent less time there than we might have.
* Hilly and a lot of steps from roadside. Fine for able bodied family, but could be difficult for older visitors.
* Nearest shop / bakery / bar a 10 minute walk along the road. No paths on the road, so can be a bit dicey in the dark.
General Pros
* Fabulous views
* 20 minute walk to the old town - fabulous old town, great atmosphere - 2-3 hour walk to the Hill top Fort
* Lots of beaches in short driving distance, approx 10 miles, though traffic could be heavy in and out of the town. Sunbeds are €10 at the beach.
* Contact Kotor Boat Tours by iMessage. They will collect you from the jetty in front of the building. Fab tour to blue cave, Perast €30 each.
* Ice cream is €1
* Swimming good
General Cons
* Eating out is expensive in the tourist area. Didn't find many restaurants that could be called cheap. Dinner with 1 drink each, a shared pasta dish for the children and fresh fish for us came to €71 at several places. Still enjoyed eating in the old town. Pizzas cheaper.
* Traffic is bad, roads are narrow and drivers crazy. Pressure to purchase extra hire car insurance at Avis.
Lovely views overlooking Kotor Bay
Very easy to book and Vesna arranged taxi for pick up from airport. Lovely well equipped apartment with much needed air conditioning. 2 fans also supplied. Impressed with the Welcome goodies, Thank You! Very large balcony which was well used, breakfast in the sun and was lovely to sit in the shade in the afternoon. Fabulous views of Kotor Bay, but would be better if hedge in front of apartment was pruned.
Approx 20 mins walk to Kotor Bay. Quite steep from apartment to main road which wasn’t a problem for us but some might find it hard going. 2 mini markets and bakery on the way. Large supermarket as you reach Kotor.
Kotor Old Town was beautiful with lots of places to eat and drink. Musicians playing in the evening was an added enjoyment.
A walk up the 1200 steps of the city wall is a must but beware of the cost. Guide states 3 euros but that has increased to 8 euros!
Perast was a lovely old town worth visiting and only 1 euro on bus from Kotor.
Overall a very enjoyable week!
Would not go back to this apartment !!
Rented the apartment from 16 to 23 June 18. The views from apartment are really stunning! I would not say this is a luxurious apartment. It’s adequate. I was very dissatisfied with the bedding it was old and well used.Old brown fitted sheet and brown quilt cover and pillow cases that weren’t ironed.. Pillows were stained and so was mattress protector. I did complain and the bed was made up with new white bedding to the standard it should have been when we arrived! Shower room and toilet could do with a revamp. Black mould along shower base and in tlies. have spoken to Paul and mailed him pictures.. No air conditioning in second bedroom. Unfortunately this did spoil our stay..
Beautiful Views of Kotor Bay
Lovely property in a lovely setting, with everything you need. Well equipped and very comfortable. Walking distance to Kotor Old Town. We tended to walk there and catch a Taxi back, which ranged in price from under 2 euros to 10! Do not use the Taxis parked in the car park across from the main entrance to the old town, they will rip you off. Turn left at the bottom of the road there is nice little café right on the waters edge approx. 20 minute walk, worth a visit.
An excellent location
We really enjoyed our week here: beautiful views across the bay from a large balcony; easy access to an attractive old town; good pool and surrounds with plenty of sun loungers and shades and a well resourced apartment.
All communication from our initial enquiry through to the end of our stay was handled quickly and efficiently. The on site manager was very proactive and quickly sorted out a couple of teething problems on arrival and was readily accessible if needed. We also found it very convenient to be able to book our airport transfers through her.
Small improvements could be made by having lights on both sides of the beds and a larger table on the balcony. For anybody considering cooking all week, kitchen work surfaces are limited (although there is a table) but this wasn't a problem for us as we mainly ate out.
Overall, we'd have no hesitation in recommending the property.
Map
The property is situated in the tranquil village of Muo just 100m from the waterfront and enjoys a beautiful view over the Bay to Kotor old town. The bay is a UNESCO world heritage site and the old city of Kotor is one of the most exquisitely preserved medieval centres in the Mediterranean. Narrow cobbled streets open out onto piazzas, churches, cathedrals and palaces. There is a lively atmosphere among the many varied restaurants and bars. Muo is conveniently located to Dubrovnik airport (45km) and Tivat airport (10km) both of which are 2.5 hour flights from London. The apartment is a 1 min walk from the waterfront and a 20 minute bayside walk to Kotor old town. Around the old town, the awe-inspiring 12 century city walls climb 200m up the sheer mountain face and form an impressive backdrop to Kotor's annual venetian carnival. Kotor is only a couple of hours drive from the ski resorts of Zabljab and Kolasin as well as the the stunning River Tara canyon.
Other Activities: Hiking, whitewater rafting
Ski: Kotor is only a couple of hours drive from the ski resorts of Zabljak adn Kolasin.
