Apartments Tagani

Apartments Tagani is an apartment rental in Ulcinj, on Montenegro's southern coast. This particular unit is a compact one-bedroom apartment sleeping two guests, with one bedroom, one bed and one bathroom — a straightforward setup for a couple, two friends travelling together, or a solo visitor who wants a bit more room than a hotel provides. The apartment forms part of a larger building of twelve apartments, which also includes two- and three-bedroom units, so larger groups travelling alongside you can be accommodated in the same complex. Ulcinj sits at the far south of Montenegro's coastline, close to the Albanian border, and is known for its long sandy beaches and old walled town above the harbour. Guests here are within reach of the town's beaches, cafés and market on foot or by short drive. Nightly rates are available on request from the property.

About the area

Velika plaža is the reason this stretch of Ulcinj exists as a resort at all. The Great Beach runs roughly twelve kilometres in one unbroken arc of fine, dark, mineral-rich sand — the largest beach on the Montenegrin coast and by some distance the shallowest. The water warms early and holds its temperature, the seabed slopes so gradually that children can walk out a long way, and the sand itself has a long-standing local reputation as therapeutic, which is why you will see people burying themselves in it on the quieter sections.

The beach has different characters along its length: organised stretches with sunbeds, showers and bars, long empty middles backed by dunes and tamarisk, and a windy final section where kitesurf schools set up from May. Behind the sand, the flat Ulcinj plain runs inland past market gardens to the lagoons of the old salt works, a protected wetland where flamingos and herons feed. Ada Bojana, at the southern tip, is worth an evening for the wooden restaurants standing over the river current and the fish that comes out of it. The fortified Old Town, harbour and Mala plaža are a short drive north when you want stone lanes and two thousand years of history instead of sand.
