Aman Sveti Stefan Luxury Hotelin Montenegro’s Adriatic coastline

http://www.amanresorts.com/amansvetistefan/home.aspx


Aman Sveti Stefan is located in the centre of Montenegro’s Adriatic coastline, south of Budva and between the villages of Przno and Sveti Stefan. The site incorporates two kilometres of coastline including the pink sandy beaches of Sveti Stefan, Miločer Beach and the famous Queen’s Beach. Aman Sveti Stefan enjoys breathtaking views out to sea, across the bay and along Montenegro’s most renowned stretch of coastline. The island itself measures 12,400 square metres, and while its historic exterior remains largely unchanged, the resort’s interiors have been restored and updated to meet contemporary expectations.

location & map


Montenegro could well be called the hidden gem of the Mediterranean. It has endured a tempestuous past, but today enjoys peace and burgeoning prosperity. Montenegro lies on the coast of the Adriatic Sea in Southeastern Europe between Croatia to the west, Bosnia and Herzegovina to the northwest, Serbia to the northeast and Albania to the southeast. It is a land of rugged snow-capped mountains, ancient forests and pristine beaches lapped by emerald green seas, where ancient monasteries cling to rocky cliffs and imposing stone churches speak of centuries past. Its capital and largest city is Podgorica, while Cetinje is designated as the old royal capital and the former seat of the throne.

Three main airports act as gateways to Aman Sveti Stefan: In Montenegro, Tivat Airport is 34 kilometres and a 30-minute drive from the resort and Podgorica Airport (also known locally as Golubovci Airport) is 54 kilometres and just over an hour’s drive away. Dubrovnik Airport in Cilipi, Croatia is approximately a 2.5-hour drive away. Travel times may vary from season to season. Airport transfers are complimentary to and from Tivat and the resort can arrange transfers from Podgorica and Dubrovnik Airports.

In a country famed for its beauty, the most iconic images associated with Montenegro are of the tiny islet named Sveti Stefan. Attached to the coast by a narrow isthmus, the island was once a fortified village dating back to the 15th century. Today, Sveti Stefan is opening in phases after a painstaking renovation. This exciting transition has retained the island’s historic air and the sturdy stone buildings with red-tiled roofs are as cheerful amongst the island’s hardy evergreen trees as they were in centuries past. Across the bay on a 32-hectare seaside estate lies Villa Miločer, opened as phase one of Aman Sveti Stefan in December 2008. The stately villa — once the summer residence of Queen Marija Karađorđević — is surrounded by more than 800 olive trees and embraced on three sides by ancient cedar and pine forests.
