The Property — Apartmani Marković Šušanj

A small, family-run block of apartments a few streets back from Šušanj beach, all pale render and terracotta pots. The lobby is a tiled hallway with a plastic chair and a noticeboard listing bus times; you check in at a kitchen table. It suits independent travellers who want a clean, quiet base with a fridge and hob, not hotel fuss. The USP is value: ten minutes’ walk to the sea, parking included, and a tiny supermarket round the corner.

Chronicles of Bar

Bar’s origins are Illyrian, but it took proper shape under the Byzantine and then the Venetian Republic, whose walls still enclose the old town. The original Stari Bar was largely flattened by an earthquake in 1979 and abandoned; the new town grew around the port and railway in the 20th century. Today it’s a working port city with a long, pebbly beach strip, a lively market, and a fresh, unpolished feel that hasn’t yet traded authenticity for tourist gloss.

Best Time to Visit

Full Bar guide →

Best months

June and September for settled sun, sea temperatures around 24°C, and thinner crowds on the beach. Early July still works before the main continental rush.

Peak / festival surge

July and August are the busiest, with temperatures pushing 30–35°C and the town filling with Serbian, German and Russian families. Hotel prices double or triple for basic rooms; the main event is the Bar Chronicle festival in mid-August, with music and theatre in Stari Bar.

Budget shoulder season

May and October offer discounts of 30–50%, fewer people, and still pleasant swimming until mid-October. The wildflowers on Rumija mountain are best in May.

Weather & packing

Bar catches occasional strong, warm gusts from the south (the jugo) that stir up dust and jellyfish. Pack one long-sleeved cotton top for evenings on the balcony when the wind drops, and reef-safe sunscreen for swimming.

Live City Briefing — Bar

  • The new bypass road around Bar (the Njegoševa connection) finished in late 2025, cutting traffic on the coastal route through town — expect smoother driving from the port to the apartments.
  • Several new beach bars and a small watersports rental have opened on Šušanj beach this season, including a paddleboard kiosk near the Hotel Princess.
  • Bar’s annual summer water supply restrictions are in place for July due to high demand; the apartments have a storage tank, but guests are asked to use water sparingly during peak hours.

Your Perfect Room

✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026

Before you check in to Apartmani Marković Šušanj, here's what to know about choosing the right room.

Best rooms to request

Request a room on the 2nd floor facing the rear courtyard. This avoids street-level noise while still being accessible by stairs if the lift is small or slow. The courtyard side tends to be quieter and gets morning sun without the afternoon heat.

⚠️

Rooms to avoid

Avoid ground-floor rooms, especially those near the entrance or the small lobby – foot traffic and street noise from Bar's main road penetrate easily. Also avoid rooms directly above the lift shaft if possible (usually odd-numbered rooms near the core).

🪟

Best views

Rooms on the 3rd floor, front side, offer a partial sea view across the rooftops towards Šušanj beach. Rear views are of the hillside or neighbouring gardens – pleasant but not dramatic.

😴

Quietest floors

Floors 2 and 3. These are high enough to escape street-level clatter but low enough that water pressure and hot water are reliable. The 3rd floor is the quietest, as few guests use the stairs that far.

🔊 Noise notes

Street noise from the coastal road (M2.11) is constant but not heavy after 10pm. The lift mechanism is audible in adjacent rooms – hear it in the bathroom if you're sensitive. No bar or restaurant noise, but the breakfast setup clatters from 7am.

Insider tips

1. Free street parking is tight – ask reception to hold a spot in the small lot behind the building. 2. Check-in is often self-service via a phone number; confirm this in advance if arriving late.

How to request your preferred room:
  1. Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
  2. Add a note in your booking comments field
  3. Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available
