The Property — Apartmani MONT
A straightforward 3-star self-catering apartment block a short walk from Budva's Old Town and the main beach. The vibe is functional and quiet, more practical than polished – think tiled floors, basic kitchenettes and a small pool area. It suits independent travellers or couples who want an affordable base for exploring the coast and plan to be out most of the day. Standing in the small lobby, you get the sense of a well-run family operation that delivers exactly what it promises, no frills.
Chronicles of Budva
Budva's Old Town dates back to the Illyrian period, with Venetian walls and stone alleyways layered over Byzantine and Roman foundations. A major earthquake in 1979 levelled much of the historic centre, but it was meticulously rebuilt and today functions as a dense maze of restaurants, galleries and boutiques. During the Venetian Republic, the city was a fortified trading port, and its main square, Square of the Poets, still holds that Mediterranean-Italian character alongside modern Montenegrin identity. Over the past two decades, tourism has reshaped Budva into the country's busiest seaside resort, with a nightlife strip drawing summer crowds along the Slovenska Plaža coast. The blend of ancient walls, Soviet-era hotel blocks and new glass-fronted apartments gives the city a jarring, vigorous feel that appeals most to those who want history by day and partying by night.
Best Time to Visit
Full Budva guide →Best months
June and September: sea temperatures are warm, the crowds haven't fully peaked, and the coastal breeze keeps things pleasant without the July-August mugginess.
Peak / festival surge
July and August: Budva is at maximum capacity, with day-trippers from cruise ships and the Sea Dance Festival in late August driving beach and bar prices up. Hotel rates double or triple compared to May–June, and booking months ahead is essential.
Budget shoulder season
May and October: daily highs around 20-25°C, far fewer tourists, and apartment prices drop by 30-50%. The sea is still swimmable by late May, and October offers cheaper flights plus the grape harvest season.
Weather & packing
Budva can get sudden afternoon thunderstorms even in July, plus a strong Bura wind funnels down the coast. Pack a light waterproof jacket and quick-dry sandals – not just flip-flops, as the stone streets get slick and puddled.
Live City Briefing — Budva
- The Budva–Podgorica road upgrade is ongoing, with lane closures on the E-80 near Petrovac; allow 20 extra minutes for transfers from the airport.
- A new pedestrianised seafront promenade from Slovenska Plaža to the Old Town is due to open in summer 2026, bypassing the main coastal road through heavy traffic.
- Several cafes and bars along the Old Town walls have been fined for exceeding amplified music hours – expect stricter noise enforcement this season.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Apartmani MONT, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the 2nd or 3rd floor facing the rear courtyard (away from Bjelaštica). These floors are high enough to avoid street-level noise but low enough to get decent light and quick lift access. The rear side overlooks the quieter residential area.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the 1st floor facing Bjelaštica — you'll get direct street noise and the ground-level foot traffic from the pavement. Also avoid any rooms directly next to the lift shaft on any floor; the lift mechanism is audible, especially in a 3-star building with thin walls.
Best views
The best view is from rear-facing rooms on floors 2–3, looking over the residential quarter of Bjelaštica with low-rise houses and Mount Vrmac in the distance. Front-facing rooms see Bjelaštica and the opposite block — no sea view, as Budva old town is a 15-min walk away.
Quietest floors
Floors 2 and 3 are the quietest. The 1st floor has street noise; upper floors may have roof-level equipment hum.
🔊 Noise notes
Bjelaštica is a two-way street serving local traffic, delivery vans to nearby shops from 7–9am, and occasional night revelers walking back from Old Town. The lift is a standard hydraulic model — audible on all floors when used, but less intrusive on 2nd–3rd. No bar or restaurant on site, so no entertainment noise.
Insider tips
1. Parking is scarce — ask the owner to reserve a spot on the small lot behind the building when booking, or you'll be parking on the street (free but competitive). 2. Check in early (before 2pm) to choose your room; the owner often gives the quieter rear side to early arrivals.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Top Attractions in Budva
💡 Free to enter but donations welcome. Go during daily Mass at 11am (weekdays) for a short peaceful visit – otherwise it can be locked. The treasury costs a euro, skip it unless you're into artefacts.
💡 Walk from the Old Town past the small marina to the raised section by the Hotel Avala – best photo spot of the Old Town walls with the sea. Bring a bottle of water; no public fountains nearby.
💡 Snorkel the rocks at the far right end for small fish and occasional starfish. Bring a mat or towel with padding – the pebbles hurt. Avoid midday in peak season; the sun bounces off the wall and gets intense.
💡 Walk past the first cove – the second one (Mogren II) is quieter and has a small bar with reasonable beer prices. Bring water shoes: the rocks near the water are sharp.
💡 Visit early morning or after 8pm to dodge cruise-ship crowds. Climb the citadel walls for panoramic views of the coast and island of Sveti Stefan – it costs a few euros, but worth it if budget allows.
