Tivat hotels are second to none. This is where you can experience the new home of flip flop luxury in Montenegro.
Tivat is fast becoming a popular place to stay. I have to admit that when we first arrived back in 2008, the first words out of my mouth were ‘why would anyone want to live in Tivat?’
My how things change…
Fast forward a few years and Tivat has been completely transformed. This is due to the establishment of Porto Montenegro, but it's not just that.
Tivat’s undergone a huge transformation from the unattractive communist-era town it was. Now it’s a well-placed and pretty town.
Here are some of the reasons to stay in Tivat:
The central location is one of the best things about Tivat – everything is close by. You can explore the whole country from here.
And if you’re wondering where to stay, you’ve got plenty of options. From budget-friendly to five star.
One of the great things about staying in Tivat town is that you can get around completely on foot. The town is compact and it’s so easy to just walk from place to place. This makes eating out a breeze. No worrying about drinking and driving.
Morning and evening strolls are a highlight. The promenade stretches from one end of Tivat to the end of Donja Lastva. You could even stretch this all the way to Lepetane.
And if staying at the five star Regent isn’t in your budget, you can always stop there for a drink in the evening and enjoy the atmosphere.
So now that you know why I love Tivat and why I think it’s
a great place to stay… here are my picks of the best hotels in Tivat.
The Regent in Porto Montenegro is beautiful and is in a stunning location overlooking the marina. The hotel has all the amenities you'd expect of a Regent hotel and it's location combined with Tivat's compact size means you can easily get around on foot.
Features:
