Almaja Apartments

Almaja Apartments offers a one-bedroom apartment for two guests in Petrovac, on Montenegro's Adriatic coast. The building sits roughly 70 metres from the beach on a quiet street beside a pine forest park, directly across from Hotel Montecasa, so the sand and the seafront promenade are a short walk away while the surrounding street stays calm. This unit has one bedroom with one bed, one bathroom, and its own terrace, with views over the sea and the neighbouring pine forest park. Inside you'll find air conditioning, internet access, satellite TV, and a kitchenette for simple meals and morning coffee. Daily housekeeping is provided. The scale suits couples or two friends who want a coastal base for swimming, walking, and day trips along the Budva Riviera rather than a large group space. Rates start from 138 EUR per night.

About the area

The street sits one row back from the sea, in the pine wood that edges Petrovac's town beach — close enough to hear the water, far enough that the shade does most of the work in August. The beach itself is the town's signature: a curve of coarse reddish sand, unusual on this coast, running a few hundred metres between two green headlands with the promenade and its cafés along the back of it. The water shelves gently, which is why Petrovac fills with families rather than party crowds.

Everything is walkable from here. At the southern end a small Venetian fortress, the Kastio, sits directly on the sand with a bar in its courtyard and a view out to the two islets offshore, Katič and Sveta Nedjelja, one of them carrying a tiny church. In the other direction a path over the headland reaches Lučice, a compact pine-backed cove, in about ten minutes. Petrovac keeps a real town underneath the season — a market, bakeries, a bus stand, and konobe serving grilled fish, black risotto and whatever comes down from the Paštrovići hills. Sveti Stefan and Budva lie a short drive north, Bar and the Skadar Lake road south.
