女士滩

Our room was very clean, good closet space. Balcony was nice. Tiniest soap I’ve ever had, 2 small bottlesof shampoo, no shelf to put them on in shower though. We ate dinner in the restaurant across from hotel and it was very good. The inclusive breakfast at hotel needed improvement, no fruit or yogurt, eggs hard as a rock, hot dogs (?!), we were there end of season so not many guests. The beach is rocky but lots of trash. Walk to the other end where the water is calmer and the beach sandy.

We made a last minute change to a planned itinerary for a driving tour of Montenegro from Split. We were going to Budva first but many locals said Budva was not for us and suggested Tivat. Porto Palace was available and I arranged a 3 night stay. As it last minute we took what was available and had a low floor with no view. The rooms are apartments with full kitchens. A combo washer and dryer with detergent was a pleasant useful surprise in a 3 week Europe trip. The rooms are very nice and there is a ton of space with a large living area. Storage in the main bathroom is very limited but it was ok. Very pretty but limited utility. Parking in their garage is included. The immediately adjacent Porto Montenegro is stunning and a brief walk. Budva and its beautiful old town is a 40 minute drive and the Kotor cable car which is a must do is midway back to Tivat. We very much enjoyed our stay and were happy we switched to Tivat. One of the highlights of the hotel is breakfast. Beautiful breakfast room with wonderful service. This gentleman in this photo has to be one of the most personable genuine and friendly waiter we have ever met in our travels. He was amazing! We can strongly recommend Tivat and Porto Palace.
