Description
Perhaps the most iconic image associated with Montenegro, the fortified island of Sveti Stefan dates back to a time when Adriatic pirates held sway over this crystal-clear coastline. Attached to the mainland by a narrow isthmus, the restored village lies across the bay from Villa Miločer, a former royal retreat. Along with 80 acres of grounds, two kilometres of beaches and a standalone Spa, these two historic sites comprise Resort of Sveti Stefan.
