About Budva
Budva Old Town anchors Budva, a walled Adriatic resort on Montenegro’s coast, where stone lanes lead to beaches, seafood and lively evenings.
Three to seven days suits a stay based in Old Town, keeping the waterfront and historic lanes close at hand.
Mogren Beach offers a sheltered stretch of coast, while boat trips reach Sveti Nikola Island and the promenade fills with evening music. The coastal road leads toward the Sveti Stefan viewpoint, and local konobas serve buzara, fresh seafood and Njegusi prosciutto in a setting that shifts easily from seaside relaxation to nightlife.
