Hilltop Retreat - Five Bedroom Villa, Sleeps 10 | Villa in Kumbor

Perched high upon the Lustica Peninsula, the luxurious Hilltop Retreat villa is a unique five-bedroom property that boasts stunning views of the Bay of Kotor and the Montenegrin mountains. Surrounded by rolling olive groves, historic hamlets and idyllic fishing villages, the 400-year-old stone villa was once home to a traditional olive mill. Today, the villa has been fully restored and lovingly decorated with plenty of charming design touches, featuring a sun-drenched terrace with a private swimming pool, as well as a fragrant Mediterranean herb garden and a pergola. With local beaches only fifteen minutes away by car, the Hilltop Retreat villa is the perfect place to unwind in nature with your loved ones, high in the verdant hills overlooking the sparkling waters of Kotor.
A refreshing dip in the villa’s private pool is the ideal way to begin each day, with spectacular views of the bay and the soothing sounds of the natural world around you. After your morning swim, take a moment to enjoy a freshly brewed cup of coffee or bask in the warm sunshine on a poolside lounger. The pergola on the picturesque stone terrace provides cool shade in the afternoon, offering guests a well-appointed summer kitchen with a fridge and a barbecue area.
The terraced garden gives the outdoor living space a rustic feel, with the scent of Mediterranean herbs like mint, sage and rosemary mingling with the Adriatic breeze. After a day spent exploring the villa’s dreamlike surroundings, return to your Hilltop Retreat to prepare a delicious feast using the fresh local produce you have discovered. Gather everyone for a sunset meal on the first-floor veranda, accompanied by a glass of excellent Montenegrin wine and unforgettable ocean vistas.
Inside the villa, guests will be delighted to find a contemporary kitchen fully equipped with a range of modern appliances and a central island. Original stone walls and rustic timber ceiling beams provide a delightful contrast to the kitchen’s modern fittings, seamlessly blending the old and the new. Adjacent to the kitchen is a traditional dining table, where everyone can come together to discuss the day’s adventures over a leisurely dinner. The Hilltop Retreat also features a large living room with sumptuous sofas, a wood-burning stove and a HD TV, inviting guests to curl up and unwind after a day exploring the Montenegrin coastline.
The villa boasts five delightful double bedrooms, each of which features a king-size bed and a contemporary en-suite shower room. Located at the front of the villa, the Orla Room, the Herrington Room and the Copper Room each feature authentic brickwork and farmhouse-style doors, which provide direct access to the Hilltop Retreat’s private gardens. The Oriental Room and the Oak Room, both of which may also be arranged as twin bedrooms upon request, are situated at the back of the villa. Each Hilltop Retreat bedroom has been carefully designed to offer a restful and rejuvenating ambience.
Whether you wish to spend your holiday exploring the natural wonders of Montenegro or sunbathing by the pool on the terrace, this tranquil heritage hideaway is the perfect place to escape from the hustle and bustle and make the most of the breathtaking Kotor Bay area.

Location:
Boasting a superb location on the Bay of Kotor, the Hilltop Retreat villa is situated in the rolling green hills of Zabrdje on the stunning Lustica Peninsula. This enchanting hilltop haven feels like Montenegro’s best-kept secret, surrounded by picturesque olive groves and the sparkling waters of the Adriatic Sea. There is an array of local restaurants serving fresh seafood nearby and a convenient supermarket. Meanwhile, the beautiful beaches of Kotor are just a fifteen-minute drive away.
Located on a sparkling bay on Montenegro’s Adriatic coastline, Kotor is a UNESCO World Heritage site with seemingly endless scenic views. The medieval town is surrounded by majestic mountains and crystal-clear waters, making it the perfect place for those in search of radiant natural beauty as well as a destination with a vibrant cultural heritage. Kotor’s rich heritage has been influenced by the warm Mediterranean climate and the historical significance of the Illyrian, Roman, and Ottoman empires, allowing visitors to experience an intriguing blend of Balkan and Mediterranean culture.
For water sports enthusiasts, the Bay of Kotor offers a treasure trove of coastal adventures, with activities such as paddleboarding, sea kayaking and jet skiing all available. The mountains provide opportunities for hiking and trekking at any time of year, with trails affording sweeping views of the Adriatic Sea. Popular with visitors and locals alike, the steep trail to the Fortress of San Giovanni is an excellent option for keen hikers. This fourteenth-century castle is perched on a hill overlooking the town. The hike is challenging but highly enjoyable, rewarding visitors with spectacular bay views.
After a sunny afternoon hike, make your way towards Kotor’s old town for a leisurely evening meal. Montenegrin cuisine combines Mediterranean and Balkan flavours, providing visitors with some exquisite delicacies to sample. There is a focus on regional, seasonal produce here, with seafood, grilled meat and fresh vegetables featured in many of the delicious dishes found along the coast, as well as locally produced cheese and olive oil. Black risotto and buzara are two seafood specialities, while Rakija, a strong fruit brandy, is the country’s national drink. Don’t forget to sample a glass of excellent Montenegrin wine – several wineries in the countryside offer intimate tours and tastings.
Spend a morning wandering the labyrinthine streets of Kotor’s old town, where you can admire an impressive mix of Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque architecture. Traditional Montenegrin houses and historic landmarks are dotted along the narrow cobblestone streets. Walking along the town’s walls, constructed during the Venetian period, is a great way to get to know Kotor before a visit to the iconic St. Tryphon’s Cathedral and the old clock tower on the Square of Arms. The town is known for its lively street culture, with small music festivals, parades and art events taking place throughout the year.
Of course, you can always escape to the beach whenever you need a refreshing swim in the sea or a moment of complete relaxation in the sunshine. The Bay of Kotor is home to a number of secluded, sandy coves where you can swim in crystal-clear waters whilst admiring the lush green mountains. Later, make your way home to your Hilltop Retreat in time for a sunset swim in the pool before sipping a glass of wine under the stars.
