Top Kotor Bay Hotels

Kotor Bay Hotels offer you locations in quaint fishing villages with world-class views and top notch restaurants. What's not to love?

Picturesque and historic Kotor old town is a wonderful place to stay. But I’m going to argue that staying outside the town it is even better for the following reasons:

• No noisy crowds
• No bars and music until late
• STUNNING sea and mountain views
• Free parking
• Beaches close by

On the map below you can see the villages around the Bay of Kotor and where they are.

The Villages Of Kotor Bay

Here are my thoughts on each of the villages to help you make a decision which one is right for you:

Dobrota (including Sveti Eustasije) – this is an ideal place to stay. It’s close to all the amenities of Kotor and depending how far your hotel is from town, you can either walk, bus or catch a taxi to town.

Ljuta and Orahovac – these little villages are great getaway spots. There’s very little here apart from Bajova Kula beach and Stari Mlini restaurant. If staying here, I recommend getting car hire.

Perast – Perast is also a great place to stay – there are plenty of restaurants, it’s incredibly pretty and historic. There are a couple of things to note:

1.       It’s pedestrian only so you will have to park either side of town which costs €2 per day.

2.       It gets very busy during the summer months.

3.       There’s just one small beach. You have to swim from the piers and unless your accommodation has a designated pier, you won’t be able to lie out in the sun.

Risan – I don’t recommend staying in Risan. It’s a bit run down with old industrial buildings and a big dilapidated hotel. It does however have a few restaurants and a beach front, so if you can overlook the rest, it might suit you.

Morinj and Kostanjica – these are quite close together and Morinj would be the most popular place to stay. There’s a large beach here and two good restaurants – Tramontana on the beach and Catovica Mlini behind. Because of the natural springs in this area, the sea water is always cooler than elsewhere.

Kamenari – this is where the ferry that links the Herceg Novi side of the bay with the Tivat side docks. There’s ample beach front here and there are a couple of restaurants and a supermarket. The ferries aren’t noisy, but they do run 24 hours a day and the traffic is busy with cars going back and forth on the ferry.

Muo – Muo, like Dobrota, is a great location because it’s so close to Kotor. You also benefit from the stunning views of the old town, especially when it’s lit up at night. Depending where you are here, you could walk to Kotor or get a bus or taxi very cheaply.

Boutique Hotel Casa Del Mare - Mediterraneo

Boutique Hotel Casa Del Mare – Mediterraneo is in Kamenari, which is where the ferry links the Herceg Novi and Tivat parts of Kotor Bay. The hotel is modern and new and lies right across the road from the sea.

The hotel’s rooms are modern and relaxing and all have sea views. The hotel also has free WiFi, free parking, a very good restaurant, a private beach with sun loungers and massage facilities. All in all, the perfect spot for a relaxing holiday!

Kamenari gets fantastic, close-up views of passing cruise ships from April to November. This location is a great getaway spot, but it’s just 20 minutes to Herceg Novi and you can take the ferry and be in Tivat in about the same time.

Three Star Hotels

Hotel Bokeljski Dvori

Hotel Bokeljski Dvori is a good value 3 star hotel in Prcanj. Prcanj is a pretty village on the seaside stretch between Kotor and Tivat and is about 15-20 minutes from each by car.

Free parking and WiFi are included. You need to reserve the parking which I recommend doing because this road is very narrow and parking can be hard to find in the summer months. If you’re without a car, a local bus runs between Kotor and Tivat and vice versa half hourly.
