I think in reviews have been said a lot and will support all positive reviews. Being in few hotels around Tivat my experience of this hotel is highly positive. Its on the beach, in quiet secluded area, 19 min walk from local shop and 15-20 min drive from Tivat on taxi (10-15 € one way) where you can spend walking through clean and Rivera style marina with many fountains. But please ask for taxi with air con as there are many taxi cars are old and no air con included unfortunately and even 15 min journey in sweltering weather appears to be rather uncomfortable. But mainly positive is related to accommodation, quietness of the area and very pleasant staff unlike in few hotels in Tivat I stayed. Seems a big set back for Montenegro (conversing with honest locals) is a lack of appreciation of good service on business dictated probably by Visa free travel to Montenegro from huge country like Russia - no need to compete for locals. Therefore I was pleasantly suprised with service at this hotel.
Dear Travellers
We stayed in several hotels during our trip to Serbia and Montenegro however Villa Kristina in Tivat was the only one that stood out. No faults with this place, everything was perfect, from location, rooms, facilities, staff... and so on. The proprietor and staff treated all her guests like family, knowing each guest by name. Very cosy and comfortable. Did I mention they have a private beach!!! Absolutely gorgeous!!! They went out of their way to assist and ensure we had a comfortable and enjoyable stay. I will definitely be going back every year, but for a much loinger period. Loved it!!!
Villa Kristina is definitely one of our favourite places to stay in Montenegro. It has one of the most stunning views of the Bay and it offers a very comfortable stay. You'll certainly feel looked after.
Our Executive Deluxe bedroom seemed a bit small, but it was very cosy, clean and well-equipped. Besides, there was a shared patio (with 1 other apartment) where we had our breakfasts with a beautiful view of the sea and the mountains.
Our favourite part of the stay was access to the sea at the Villa. We swam and sunbathed right where we stayed. We explored some nearby beaches outside the bay, however, we enjoyed swimming at the villa more because it wasn't windy in the bay. The villa is well-protected from the wind by the mountains.
While Villa Kristina is away from the main historical locations, if you have a rented car or a scooter, then it is not a problem at all. It's located within 15-17 mins from Tivat or Kotor historical town by car. The nearest grocery store is within 6 mins, a public beach - 10 mins, nearest restaurant - 5 mins by car.
We really enjoyed our stay at Villa Kristina and it will certainly be our choice when we go back to Montenegro next time.
