We rested at Villa Maslinac for almost a month with two children and were very pleased. We ordered apartments on our own via the Internet, contacted the owner and transferred an advance of 30%, as a result, accommodation for 28 days for 4 people cost 1320 euros.
Location. The villa is located one and a half kilometers from the sea, but for us it was only a plus. Firstly, every 2 hours there is a free shuttle to the sea and back. If, nevertheless, we stayed on the coast until late, then a taxi to the villa cost 2-3 euros. The advantage was that cars do not drive past the villa, that is, with a calm soul, you could let the children go for a walk, it was very quiet, a magnificent view of the sea opened from the mountain. The villa has a swimming pool, sunbeds and towels for free. The territory of the villa is also pleasing to the eye - olives, grapes, tangerines, small palm trees and unusual flower beds. The grapes were already ripe and we were allowed to pick them and eat them.
We had apartment No. 9 on the 1st floor, one large room with a kitchenette, a dining table, a wardrobe and two sofas, and a bedroom with one large double bed, a sofa and a wardrobe, a bathroom with a toilet, a sink and a shower, hot water has always been.

Nutrition. Each room is equipped with a small kitchen - there is a stove, refrigerator and necessary utensils. Quite often they cooked on their own, they bought products at the market in Budva - the prices are the same as in Russia, but the taste....It’s not even worth comparing, it’s not for nothing that Montenegro is recognized as the most environmentally friendly corner of Europe. In the evening, on the embankment near the Old Town, you can buy the freshest fish and seafood. There is also a cafe-bar in the villa, they cooked very tasty at affordable prices - the only feature: there is no menu, as such, they will cook whatever you want, only dinner must be ordered before lunch, so that you can buy the necessary products and cook. Well, coffee, tea, cocktails, ice cream can be ordered at any time. Be sure to try the cappuccino that Sonia prepares - it's just a fairy tale. Serbian Sonya is the soul and heart of the villa, the woman whose name is Charm!
Once a day we went to some cafe on the coast, usually a dinner for four without strong alcohol (beer does not count) cost 25-35 euros, the most visited was the Azzuro cafe near Splendid, very pleasant atmosphere, unobtrusive music, a varied menu and democratic prices.
Service. The room was cleaned every 3 days - cleaned very carefully, we left a tip of 2 euros. Change of bed and towels every 5 days. Moreover, if we asked to change the bed earlier (the child vomited), this did not cause any problems. Toilet paper is provided, but soap and shampoo must be bought on your own.
I would also like to note that we were met at the airport and taken directly to the villa (25 euros)
Excursions. We decided to explore the sights on our own. We bought a map of Montenegro and rented a car. Sonya herself called the rental service and agreed, the car was delivered directly to the villa, then they also picked it up themselves (renting a car on average 50-70 euros per day, including insurance). Gasoline is quite expensive at 1.5 euros per liter, but a small consumption of 5-7 liters offset this difference. For 2 days we drove all the coast, on the 3rd we went inland.
Separately, I would like to note a sea excursion, on the embankment in Budva you can hire a boat with a skipper for 25 euros per hour and enjoy the views of the Budva Riviera from the sea, I highly recommend it. Away from busy beaches, we enjoyed views of rocky shores and small grottoes, where the water is crystal clear. I even managed to swim there - the feeling is indescribable.
Recommendations. I strongly advise families with children and couples in love to rest on Maslinac, but if you like discos and parties, then it is probably better to look for housing closer to the coast; although a taxi is no problem.
Probably, my review will seem sugary-sweet to many, but the rest really left only the most optimistic impressions, except that the refrigerator rumbled loudly at night
