Apartments M&T

Apartments M&T sits directly on the seashore in Muo, a small fishing village just 1.5 km from Kotor's Old Town and only 5 meters from the water. The apartment is set up for 2 guests, with one bedroom, one bed and one bathroom, making it a straightforward choice for couples or solo travellers who want a quiet base outside the busy centre while staying within easy reach of it. Inside there is air conditioning, a kitchen, a living area and Wi-Fi, along with a TV with extra channels and the usual household appliances. The large seaside terrace looks out over the bay towards the old town, and sunbathing loungers are set out on the stone pier below, so swimming is a few steps from the door. Kotor's waterfront, restaurants and ferry connections are a short walk or drive around the bay. Rates start from 77 EUR per night.

About the area

Muo faces Kotor across the water, a single row of stone houses squeezed between the coast road and the sea in what was, and to some extent still is, a fishing village. Small wooden boats are tied to the ponte, the low stone piers that double as sunbathing platforms, and the sea comes right up to the garden walls. The view is the reason people stay here: the entire amphitheatre of Kotor, its fortifications tracking up the mountain behind it, floodlit after dark and reflected in flat water.

Because this shore looks east, the evening light lands on the far side of the bay while Muo itself falls into shade, which is a welcome order of events in July. Kotor's gates are about a kilometre and a half around the head of the bay, walkable if you do not mind the road, quick by car or boat. Kayaks are the local way to explore: the shoreline runs south past Prčanj towards Stoliv with almost no traffic on the water, and there are inlets and old jetties to stop at along the way.
