About this property

Seafront, traditional Stone Apartment with Mountain Views.

The Stone House – Prcanj 165 is on the top floor of a traditional stone ‘sea captains house’. It has been fully refurbished and has all the amenities for modern living.

Prcanj has 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, a large lounge / dining area, kitchen and outdoor covered terrace. Prcanj 165 can accommodate a maximum of 6 guests.

The bedrooms and living room at Prcanj 165 have amazing views of Kotor Bay and the surrounding mountains. Prcanj 165 guests have a private covered terrace to the rear which has view of Kotor Bay and the surrounding mountains.

Prcanj 165 guests enjoy the cooling effect of thick stone walls, high ceilings and air conditioning throughout.

Prcanj 165 is on the seafront. The tidal range is approximately 20 centimetres. You do not notice the tide coming in or out and there are no strong currents. There are two steps down onto the beach or a jetty (punta) to swim from. The beach is gently sloping and very safe. The water temperature reaches 24 degrees Celsius in summer. On the shoreline there are tree shaded areas where you can sit and relax.

A well -appointed kitchen means all types of meals and snacks can be prepared with ease. The fridge, dishwasher and washing machine have all been replaced in the last 2 years.

We stayed for a month - the apartment had everything we needed, and we took advantage of a few home-cooked meals. The large supermarket up by the Hyatt Hotel has a good range of items and a hot food counter that sells freshly roasted chicken. Ideal with fresh bread and salad.The sea is immediately over the road - great for a quick dip, but I recommend you bring water shoes.The apartment is located on a busy and narrow road - we wanted to walk every day and, unless we jumped in the car and drove somewhere, the only option was along that road - which wasn't that appealing. The nearest town is Kotor - in the summer on most days there are cruise ships visiting. This means a journey of 15mins takes c. 45mins - becomes frustrating after a while, I can't imagine how the locals cope!We recommend Kraken (the underwater wine bar), Verige 65 restaurant and Moments (who will send a speedboat to pick you up from the apartment, 25 euros each way and great fun!) A day trip to Herceg Novi is also recommended - including the efficient ferry crossing.

Perfect holiday

We spent a week at the Stone House in Prcanj, and it was perfect in every way. After being warmly welcomed we quickly slipped into a relaxed holiday mode, and made the most of all the area has to offer. The apartment was the perfect base for all holiday adventures and provided everything required. The whole booking and arrival process was very straight forward and the local representatives could not do enough to help with any request. We would have no hesitation in recommending this accommodation.

Prcanj 165 is a gem

We loved the home - it was expansive, airy, lots of vertical space. It was well equipped, and we cooked as often as we ate out. The beds are extremely comfortable, all our needs were met. James left us ample info, helpful tips, and local resources. I can’t recommend the place or the area more. It’s a magical place.

Lovely relaxing break

We had a comfortable and relaxing recent stay at James' place. The location is perfect to laze about in the water across the road, or take a stroll to the local resultants nearby. Would recommend taking beach shoes as the 'beach' is quite rocky. We also enjoy a delicious Montenegrin meal cooked by Jadranka who lives downstairs. Highly recommend! Thankfully all rooms have excellent air con as temps were in the mid 30's while we were staying. It's easy enough to call for/Whatssapp for a taxi to take you into Kotor or further afield. James was responsive an helpful with questions that we had. Overall, a lovely stay for our first visit to Montenegro.

Amazing break

My partner and I have just returned from a 8 night stay in The Stone House and we had an amazing time. Firstly the views are stunning, we decided not to shut some of the shutters at night so we could wake up to watch the sun coming over the mountains. We were greeted by Jadranka and Vojo and that set the tone for how Montenegrin people are. James and Lily were on hand for any questions that we had and restaurant recommendations too. We really felt like it was a home away from home. Looking forward to visiting again.

Wonderful stay with one of the most beautiful views in the world

This is our third time in Kotor bay and our second time at the stone house. It's just such a lovely place to stay - it really made the holiday. Great having restaurants and a bakery and a choice of mini-markets a stone's throw from the flat, but also having our own little section of the bay for swimming, and private terrace for breakfasts. That flat itself was immaculate. There are amazing views from every room, deep sofas for relaxing, room for everyone at the table and lovely huge and comfy beds. I'd love to keep this place as my secret, but I suppose that wouldn't be fair...

Amazing week in amazing Montenegro

We stayed at the Stone House in Prcanj for six nights. The view from the top window over the bay was stunning, featuring boats, cruise ships, and majestic mountains as a backdrop. The local restaurants in Prcanj were welcoming, offering the expected fresh seafood and local meats, along with a significant Italian influence in their pizzas and pastas. We rented a rib for the day and zipped around the bays of Montenegro, exploring the old Yugoslavian submarine tunnels, having fun with the kids on an inflatable off the back of the boat, and taking in the picturesque mountains and charming villages. Just a ten-minute drive away, we found the historic Mediterranean port of Kotor, surrounded by fortifications from the Venetian era. To have the sea on your doorstep was just perfect to have lazy afternoons. The kids loved jumping in and out of the sea. The local people were friendly and welcoming. The shop below the appartement was well stocked and very convenient. Overall, the trip was relaxed and family-friendly, with fantastic weather. I would highly recommend the accommodation, well-located, and provided easy access to the sea right outside our door, with restaurants, cafes, and bars all within walking distance.

Review of Prcanj Stone Built Apartment

We loved Prcanj 165! Beautiful, charming and comfortable traditional house, two steps from the water. The outdoor balcony was a great addition with view on the mountains and the sea and Kotor Bay. James is a very responsive host, and the house neighbors (Jadranka and her husband) were extremely helpful, warm and welcoming. The apartment is well situated and apart from the immediate vicinity to the beach there are several restaurants within less than 10mins walk. The neighborhood has a very local, traditional vibe and we taught it was a perfect place for a laid-back holiday. Would highly recommend! We also used James's recommendation for the boat and the tour was well organized and smooth.

A perfect place to relax and unwind

We adored our stay at the Stone House. It's a fabulous apartment and so well situated. It's ideally equipped for the weather; when you need shade the terrace is perfect and when you want to sunbathe, the jetty is perfect. We loved swimming in the baying watching the world go by. It's a gentle pace of life. We didn't stray too far as we had already travelled further afield in Montenegro. Our hire car stayed outside for the entire week and we used local transport which was very easy. We ate locally and enjoyed one of Ladranka's amazing home cooked meals. James was fantastically organised and a very attentive. The apartment was perfectly equipped and a lovely airy space for a wonderfully relaxing family holiday.

Stunning apartment with views to die for!!

As soon as you walk through the door you will feel at home!! The apartment has a feel of luxury and quality from its large solid dining table which became the central hub for laptops, reading and of course eating, two comfortable large sofa's around a huge coffee table for morning coffee and post dinner drinks. Spacious bedrooms with huge comfy beds and a stunning view over the bay with a mountain backdrop that will take your breath away when you wake up! Great covered terrace with both sea and mountain views with enough seating for all guests to relax in the day and evening. A well stocked local shop a couple of minutes away and resteraunts and bars within a short walk along the waterfront. In a very short time you will feel like a local!!

Stunning Apartment and stunning place

This property is excellently situated and very well maintained so that it matches the photos without any disappointment. We had a wonderful relaxing time with our teens - hopping downstairs to swim in the crystal clear sea, hiring kayaks and paddleboards as well as taking a speed boat to explore the area. The hourly bus to Kotor seems to slip with its timing a little during the course of the day and taxis are easily found. The bay is beautiful and the fact so many cruise ships stop here should give you that comfort. We had a little mix up when we arrived but James was really quick to help us out and ensured we started our holiday on a good note, knowing we'd picked such caring owners who have thought of every detail. I would give 6 stars if you could!

A lovely apartment in a perfect location

A lovely apartment. Spacious, spotlessly clean, and well equipped for our holiday. Prcanj is a lovely little town, we enjoyed evening strolls along by the sea for a glass of wine or two in front of the cathedral. Wonderful to wake up every morning and see the view across the bay - a beautiful landscape from the living room and 2 bigger bedrooms. Very friendly neighbours, do try the wonderful lamb baked in ashes, and Anka was very welcoming despite our late arrival. We did have an issue with hot water which was swiftly resolved. The children loved paddling and playing on the beach over the road. From here we did so much exploring - all along the coast and up into the mountains. Kotor is a charming little town, and the walk up the walls is well worth it for the view. A lovely holiday in a great apartment.

An incredible first experience of Montenegro

We have just returned from a wonderful week spent at the Stone House which provided for an incredible first experience of Montenegro. The house itself boasts all the facilities required to make for more than an enjoyable stay. The outside terrace being incredibly comfortable at any time of day and provided the piece de resistance - fantastic views! We hired bikes from Oasis rentals in Kotor and had fun cycling around the stunning local area, stopping off at the many "watering holes" along the way. Whilst not the easiest climb up (1350) steps the views on the way up to the fortress are well worth it. Local fare in the old town is a pretty good standard across all restaurants but one restaurant stood out for us was our meal in the Galion for the food, views and the service. I cannot recommend the area and the Stone House more highly. Dawn

Amazing Views! Great Location!

We throughly enjoyed our week stay at The Stone House in a beautiful village of Prcanj, which has shops, bars and restaurants, all within walking distance. The apartment is fabulous with well equipped kitchen and tastefully decorated with wooden beams and exposed stones in some areas. The terrace, which gets sun all day is lovely place to relax and read. The views are amazing from the windows, and the sea is just outside the front door. Crystal clear water and it was lovely to go in the sea after a day of sightseeing. The neighbours, Jadranka and Voja were so welcoming. They helped us each time we required taxis or anything else. We also asked Jadranka to prepare our meal one evening and it was fabulous. If you are staying for few nights, then we suggest you should sample her cooking. Montenegrin are lovely and friendly people and we would love to return and stay at The Stone House.

Quiet hidaway

What can I say? There's really no way you can beat your own private beach area. I absolutely loved being able to walk a few feet from the house and onto my private beach access. Communication between James, Anka, and Jadranka was super easy and descriptive. If I had any questions, I just simply had to ask. Luckily I didn't because the HomeAway app had all my questions answered about the Stone House. The house was extremely clean and quiet, nestled away from the the hustle and bustle of Kotor, but still very close to the old town. The roads are quite narrow and windy, so I suggest that you have an experienced driver driving the road to the Stone House. There were many markets, restaurants, and pubs nearby which were walking distance; the location was perfect. The only few inconveniences I had were that I had to ask for extra toilet paper (as they only gave me 2 for a 5 day stay), i had to ask for paper towel, there were no face clothes, and no cooking oil. Luckily we had some generous neighbours who gave us some, otherwise we would've had to buy that too. Overall, we loved our stay. The view is breathtaking! I would definitely come back here again.

Stunning views and lovely huge apartment

The owner James communicated incredibly well and gave excellent recommendations and advice. The comprehensive info pack was useful. Jadranka and Voja who live beneath the apartment were lovely. Jadranka cooked for us on our first night and her food is delicious. It was great to have homecooked traditional Montenegrin food. The location is relatively quiet (there is a rd running in front of it but it's not busy) and the views are unbelievable. You can see the mountains and bay from all of the windows at the front and side of the apartment...it's breaktaking. Parking was a little frustrating on a couple of occasions as there's no dedicated space. The apartment is massive and airy with high ceilings which we loved. Decor is very tasteful and we appreciated the artwork, lovely internal doors and exposed stone. There's loads of wardrobe space and plenty of hangers. The emperor sized beds are so comfortable. We missed having duvets as the beds were made up with a throw and a single sheet per person to place beneath the throw but that's just personal preference. The kitchen is well equipped with all that you need. The WiFi worked well throughout our stay. The big dining table was appreciated for mealtimes and playing card games. As soon as we walked into the apartment we immediately felt calm and at home. It has such a good feel about it.We'd recommend taking a motorboat tour with Seahorizon and dinner at Verige 65. We had such a brilliant stay and fell in love with Montenegro.

Just what we needed - perfect place in the perfect location

Everything was perfect. The agency came out immediately when I reported the AC broke. Excellent location, away from the mess in Kotor but close enough to visit it. The view was excellent from inside the home via the windows over the bay or from the back porch where we saw the bay plus the trail over the walls at Kotor that we hiked. You don't have a cruise ship blocking the view from this place as you would if you were closer to Kotor, for me that's a bonus. We visited the farmers market in Kotor, that was alright, buying stuff there is a bit of a racket because I felt that they were a little pushy on us tourists, and the quality of goods was so-so. Esp trying local brandy there. Honestly you can get stuff just as good at the little market 1 minute up from the house or the supermarket in Kotor. But, it is worth seeing the market and would be fun if haggling is your thing and you just want to see the local characters. Get there early before the cruise ships do. The road on this side of the bay isn't as busy and dangerous as it would be from the Perast side. Another reason to stay here. Kitchen was just right, easy access markets to walk to for everything you need, including local beer, wine, and their local brandy. Chairs on the front water deck were wonderful,. We spent most of the time in the water. Met Drago, the neighbor the last day and tried his homemade delicious Rakija brandy.. Another guy was there who spoke German so we could have a conversation. Will definitely come back if we are in the area. Thanks for having us. Cheers..Don

Wonderful apartment in stunning location

I have to agree with the last poster that this apartment was even better than we expected. It is on the top floor (2 flights up) of a beautiful old stone building that is directly on the bay. The whole apartment has been very tastefully furnished with comfy sofas and beds, loads of storage for clothes and to stow away your luggage. Everything - down to details like the clothes airer and towels – were of high quality. The kitchen was very well stocked in terms of pots and pans and utensils and even had four (4!!!) tea towels. (That is my pet peeve – who only uses one tea towel over the course of a week??) The two front bedrooms are huge and have amazing views of the bay. The third room is a bit of a box room but even still has sea views to the side and views of the mountain behind the villa. The living room shared the views of the bay with the front bedrooms, had two big sofas and a large table that would easily sit eight. The deck outside was also extremely comfortable – half seemed to always be sunny and half in the shade so you could move around the loungers depending on whether you wanted sun or not. The bay outside the house was one of the nicest bits in Prcanj with a pebbly beach right there – perfect for our small kids to play. The water stays quite shallow for a way out so we were very happy for them to wade around and splash about. It was a short walk (even with two under-fives in tow) to a few small grocery stores, a bakery and a number of bay-side restaurants. Kotor is a short drive away (or a cheap taxi - €6) and we had fun spending a few afternoons driving around and visiting the other towns dotted along the bay. I really can’t recommend this apartment enough. We had such a relaxing time we are trying to plan another stay already!

Stunning apartment in a magical little town close to Kotor

My wife and I and our almost two year old daughter spent four magical nights in this fantastic apartment in early October. The apartment is, as so many other people have written, absolutely beautiful with incredible views from almost every window and a covered porch that you will never want to leave. We spent every night after our daughter fell asleep sitting on the porch looking at the lights on the bay under the most beautiful starlit sky while listening to the waves crashing. The owner and property manager were both very responsive and extremely helpful. What truly sets this apartment apart from the competition, however, is its location in Prcanj. We had never visited the bay of Kotor before so did not appreciate how truly special Prcanj is in comparison to the other towns dotting the coast of the bay. Prcanj is, quite simply, a magical stunning little town where all the neighbors will say hi and be so amazingly friendly to you (and particularly your children)! The other towns like Muo and Dobrota were so much less charming. We frequented the nearby restaurant konoba marija (turn right out of the property and walk maybe five minutes) where the food was good, the view right on the water perfect, and the waiter unbelievably friendly. We also tried the seafood place to the left that everyone raved about but found it less inspiring and more expensive. There is also a small bakery to the right down the street (maybe 7-8 minute walk) that had a few items for breakfast etc... and a small market to the left (5 min walk) that had almost everything we needed. The downstairs neighbors also, as others have commented, offer an in home meal that is definitely worth considering. The ash cooked lamb and potatoes were excellent and they are all the nicest people. We did the obligatory trip to Kotor and Perast (both well worth it) including the couple hour climb to the top of the fortress (well worth it!). The climb was fairly tiring but was manageable even with a toddler and my wife being pregnant. We also went to Lovcen national park - you will not believe the views along the drive but note the road is very narrow in spots here too. If you want a sandy beach great for toddlers go to Blue Horizons (plavi horizont) Note that the road around the bay near Prcanj is two way traffic but really only wide enough for one car in spots. It wasn't really dangerous, just interesting at times. Book this apartment - you will love it!

We purchased Villa Ruza in November 2013 when it had been neglected for decades. The renovation began in September 2016 and was finished in August 2017. Villa Ruza is named after our daughter Rose (Ruza) who lives in New Zealand.

We want you to have the best holiday experience ever. We have a great team in Montenegro who are there to help you. We are available to help in any way we can with the planning of your holiday.

Why they chose this property

Kotor Bay is 2 nautical miles wide at Prcanj. So you are not overlooked by the properties on the opposite side of the bay like you are in Muo as you get closer to Kotor.

Kotor is great to visit and should not be missed. I would not recommend you book a holiday in the old city.

Prcanj is 5.7 Kms from Kotor which is 13 mins by car on the local Blue Line bus.
Prcanj 165 is 1.4 km or a 17 minute walk from the recently opened Hyatt Regency Kotor Bay which has some amazing facilities.
There are a number of restaurants and bars within easy walk of Prcanj 165.
Prcanj 165 is located in the local community and our neighbours are very friendly and welcoming.

What makes this property unique

Classic stone built house that has been refurbished for modern contemporary living. The heat pumps enable guests to be comfortable at all times of the year.

The opportunity to order traditional authentic Montenegrin cuisine from our neighbour Jadranka is an amazing opportunity for our guests. We cannot get enough of her home cooked dishes.

Our local team are available to help you with anything during your holiday.

Prcanj 165 is cleaned, and the linen changed at the owners expense every 7 days.
