Hotel Rivijera

I visited here from 16th to 23rd October with my daughter. We were given a lovely family suite which had two rooms, a double bed and a single bed, a mini fridge and safe. We also had a large balcony, with a wonderful view of trees and mountains. There were a couple of things at the beginning eg battery in safe not working, and some toiletries missing, but Ivan, the Manager, a most charming and helpful man sorted it out immediately. The cleaning and catering staff were most helpful. I have to say that the linen and towels were extremely clean. We went for breakfast and evening meals and there was a wide variety of food available to suit all tastes, the best for me being the local produce, eg pastries, yoghurt and cheeses, fish and chicken dishes, salads, courgette fritters, grapes and fresh fruit.||The hotel has a pool surrounded by pomegranate, olive and pine trees, and the path through the gardens leads directly to the beach. The town is lovely with a beach and boat trips available,(as well as trips elsewhere in Montenegro) and a wonderful local bakery where you can buy nice food for lunch. There is also a sea front café which serves homemade lemonade.||The weather was variable, but above 20 degrees C and on some days 25 degrees C and full sunshine, so perfect for swimming.||All in all, a great deal. I can definitely recommend. Just be aware that Euros are preferred to cash in some places, and you will need these when buying local bus tickets, for local bus trips, or in smaller cafés, though larger places and restaurants will take cards. There are a few cash machines along the sea front and at the back of one of the hotels, but they will take a small charge along the charge made by your card, so you are better off taking out a larger amount at a time.
