Bogdanović Apartments

Bogdanović Apartments sits in Dobrota, just 30 metres from Dobrota Beach on the Kotor coastline, in a modern building well placed for exploring the Bay of Kotor. This apartment sleeps 2 guests in one bedroom with one bed and has one bathroom, making it a straightforward choice for couples or solo travellers who want a quiet base near the water rather than a large group space. Every apartment in the building has a sea-view balcony, and units come fully equipped with a kitchen, air conditioning and satellite TV. Free wireless internet is available throughout. Shared facilities include a newly built open-air swimming pool, a garden for relaxing and a children's playground. Staff can arrange laundry, transport, and bicycle or car rentals on request. The surrounding area offers Mediterranean and Montenegrin restaurants, supermarkets and sports facilities, all within easy reach of the apartment.

About the area

Families tend to get on well with this part of Dobrota, and the geography explains most of it. The bay has no tide, no surf and no currents worth the name, so the water off the beach is flat almost every morning; entry is from platforms and ladders into deep water, with shallower stretches nearby for small children. The shore road and promenade are level enough for a pushchair, and sports grounds and playgrounds are within walking distance.

There is also plenty to do that does not involve sitting still. Boats from Kotor's quay make the short crossing to Our Lady of the Rocks, an artificial island built up over centuries by sailors dropping stones beside a wreck; older children usually make short work of the climb to the fortress above the old town, which is really about 1,350 steps of staircase. Kayaks and pedalos are easy to rent along the shore, and the restaurants strung out along Dobrota cook the local fish and mussels alongside the pizza and pasta everyone else in the family wants.
