luxury property comprises 58 rooms and cottages overlooking the Adriatic. With rooms from around £700 a night, it may carry a hefty price tag, but this is the one to pick for clients seeking that once-in-a-lifetime stay. To add to the mix, the recently opened 110-room Chedi Lustica Bay (rooms from £160 a night) is part of a new development of hotels and residences and is just a short jaunt from Kotor. Another highly anticipated opening this year is the One&Only Portonovi, which is set to become the chain’s first resort in Europe. The 121-room property is on the west side of Kotor Bay, just an hour’s drive from Dubrovnik.
