One&Only Portonovi: Bring the Family Between Mountains and Sea
Look Across the Sea. The Mountains Are There Too.
At the entrance to the Bay of Kotor, mountains seem to rise straight from the sea, with a marina in front. The view doesn’t end at the water. Montenegro’s One&Only Portonovi is here.
The appeal is letting that landscape become part of ordinary holiday life: the pool, lunch, an afternoon left open. I like a place becoming familiar enough that staying another day needs no new attraction. Save Perast and Kotor’s old town for a half-day outing. After seeing somewhere beautiful, you can return to your own holiday.
Together, with Different Plans for the Afternoon
With grandparents and children, I would look at villas before rooms and suites. A private pool has a practical appeal. Children can swim while grandparents rest, without everyone arranging the day around the shared pool. Otherwise, the family’s holiday planner may find the coordinating job has come along too.
Look beyond bedrooms and views to how you will use the accommodation during the day. A villa makes sense when you want to spend time there. For couples interested mainly in the sea, marina and restaurants, a room or suite works well. Book Now & Save covers rooms, suites and villas.
Leave Some Chenot Time for Yourself
The person arranging a family holiday should have something they want to do, too. Chenot Espace is within One&Only Portonovi, so wellness can fit into the stay without a separate leg of the trip.
Grandparents and children can continue their seaside holiday while those interested make time for treatments. Planning usually starts with asking everyone else what they would enjoy. Ask yourself as well. If personal time already matters to you, give Chenot a place in the hotel decision.
Settle the Dining Choices Ahead
If you expect to dine at the hotel often, compare the total with half board: EUR 60–90, with a choice of La Veranda, Tapasake or Sabia and soft drinks included. You can vary your restaurant plans throughout the stay.
Children 4–12 eat free in the off-season and half price the rest of the year. Over a week, that matters. Calculate the meals you expect to eat here, then let dinner be dinner.
Come Across from Dubrovnik
For a Croatia pairing, put Dubrovnik first, then settle beside the Bay of Kotor. The drive takes roughly an hour. City sightseeing gives way to seaside time.
The usual route connects in Europe to Tivat (TIV), followed by about 30 minutes by car, including a ferry crossing. Perast and Kotor’s old town are half an hour away by boat, making a half-day outing easy to fit.
Decide How Next Summer Should Feel
For summer 2027, families needing a villa can start checking dates now. Decide how everyone will share accommodation and whether you want sea or mountain views. Then compare rates and half board.
Next spring’s prices remain uncertain. Waiting does not necessarily mean saving. This hotel also makes less sense for a trip built around intensive city sightseeing. If every day takes you elsewhere, reconsider how much of the budget belongs here.
