About this villa rental

Villa Ruza is a traditional, detached stone built house located right on the seafront (first line) of Tivat Bay in the village of Donja Lastva. Villa Ruza has 2 floors, 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, fully fitted kitchen, spacious dining / lounge area and accommodates a maximum of 6 guests. Villa Ruza is fully air conditioned with a spacious terrace facing the sea. Villa Ruza was completely renovated to the highest standards in 2017 and is now enjoyed by friends and families from around the world. At Villa Ruza we have combined the benefits of traditional local materials with all the conveniences of modern living. Villa Ruza enjoys the sun all day and guests enjoy the most amazing sunsets every evening. Behind Villa Ruza are the mountains which separate us from the Bay of Kotor.

Villa Ruza sits next to the Roman Catholic Church of St Roko. Villa Ruza is about 200 years old and has a completely updated private, secure outside terrace of 35 square meters. The internal floor space is 120 square meters.

The terrace has plenty of space and facilities for you to enjoy outdoor living and eating. There are shady and sunny areas so you can always choose the most comfortable place for you. High quality sun loungers are available for you to use.

The kitchen is brand new, spacious, light and airy with:

• Beautiful granite worktops throughout.
• A gorenje electric hob and oven.
• A gorenje extractor unit.
• Integrated gorenje fridge and freezer.
• Integrated gorenje Dishwasher.
• Integrated Bosch Washing Machine.
• Matt Black Franke sink
• Bosch Kettle
• Bosch Toaster
• Glassware
• China, crockery and cutlery
• Pots, pans and utensils for cooking.

The downstairs floor is tiled with the original red and cream tiles which have been in the property for 200 years. The floor was re-laid as part of the renovation. You will see exactly the same type of stone tiles in the old city of Kotor.

There are three fully air-conditioned bedrooms.
The beds were all handmade and assembled in the rooms.
The mattresses are ultra-comfortable and were all new in 2017.
• Bedroom #1 has a double bed (200 cms x 200 cms) with sea and mountain views.
• Bedroom #2 has a double bed (180 cms wide x 200 cms long) with views of the sea, mountains and church.
• Bedroom # 3 has 2 single beds (90 cms wide x 200 cms long) with views of the church.


Additional Features:

• Private Parking for up to 2 vehicles.
• Beautiful views across Tivat Bay from all windows to the front.
• Café Giardino is 10 meters away. It is a quiet Konoba (water front restaurant / bar) which is owned by our neighbour Zoran and his family. They are super friendly and specialise in fresh fish dishes. Zoran and his son catch the fish themselves.
• Café Giardino will deliver your order to the house if you would prefer to eat at home.
• Beautiful Catholic Church of St Roko is our other neighbour. I recommend you look inside. Don Nikola (the resident priest) is very welcoming. The church bells ring between 07:00 and 22:00 daily. On the hour and every half hour. It is all part of the charm of the area.
• Convenience Store a 5 minute walk away.
• The marina, restaurants and shops of Porto Montenegro are a 15 minute walk along the seafront.
• All windows have glass windows and composite shutters so you can control the sunlight and temperature of the house.
• Original stone floor which has been cleaned and re-laid for the first time in 200 years.
• Exposed original stone interior walls in places.
• Reclaimed maritime brass lighting throughout.
• Canvass prints of the house prior to the renovation.
• New windows and shutters.
• Oak wooden floor up the stairs and throughout the three bedrooms.
• Handmade solid oak dining table and chairs.
• Two matching sofas.
• Log burner for the winter.
• War Memorial to some fallen partisans from WW2 immediately next door to the left.

Villa Ruza has a fenced off child friendly front terrace. We can provide baby gear including highchairs and cot on request.

You can swim in the sea right in front of Villa Ruza. Just around the corner is a safe, gently sloping beach.

The area is very popular with visiting artists who enjoy painting the sea, sky and mountains.

There are plenty of opportunities to sail at Porto Montenegro where they have a fleet of J70’s and Blu 26’s available for rent. I can make all the introductions there.

There are numerous local places where you can walk in the hills and mountains.

If you like architecture then the ancient venetian city of Kotor is just one local example in the UNESCO protected bay of Kotor.

We loved the old stone building, sympathetically restored with all the modern conveniences you would want. The pictures on the walls showing the history of the building were a lovely touch. The property is well located with plenty of restaurants and supermarkets in walking distance. We really enjoyed our stay here the space was perfect for our family of 4 (two adult children).

Wonderful home in a beautiful local neighborhood. Walking distance to grocery shops and a couple of nice restaurants too. Beds were very cozy and comfortable. Our family of 6 had ample space. Home a/c worked well. Parking spot was great. Our next door neighborhood restaurant was prefect for our daily cappuccinos that we had in our home each day. Owner was great with communicating. We had a wonderful time in Tivat.

We had a wonderful stay at James and Lily’s charming villa. The location can’t be beat, steps from the water and the views are absolutely stunning. The quaint bar next door is a lovely spot to enjoy a drink or fresh homemade meal. The villa itself has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The bedding is comfortable, the black out shutters ensure a good rest and the air conditioning kept us cool through out. The kitchen is well stocked for home chefs and cooking enthusiasts, we made lots of meals at home and enjoyed them on the terrace watching the sunset. James (the owner) and Tamara (the coordinator) were super responsive and helpful with everything. They checked in often and made sure we were taken care of. There is a sweet one eyed cat that would visit every morning, accepting pets and swatting away unwanted critters.Tivat is a sleepy town with friendly locals and an easy going vibe and was a great start to our adventure in Montenegro. Needless to say, we can’t wait to be back!

We had a wonderful stay at this quaint and beautifully renovated house. The 3 bedrooms were of good size and with comfortable beds. The bay is right in front of the house. It is also next to a lovely church. The church bells didnt bother us as it didn't come on too early or too late and it was part of the charm.Next door was a local restaurant run by a very friendly owner and it was a good option for last minute hunger pangs.The location was perfect for us as it was also an easy walk to several nice restaurants and the nearest beach was lovely. We didn't want to be in the touristy part and when we did venture into town and the port area it was an easy 7 mins drive.Communication was great and fast responses when there were queries. Very friendly owner and well-managed locally.We would recommend a stay at this lovely property.

We had a wonderful time at Villa Ruza. Montenegro is truly a beautiful country. We used many of your recommendations from your flyer, including Bojan, boat rental company and many restaurants. Your recommendations were all spot on. Tamara was very helpful too! Overall an incredible experience!

We had a great time staying at this house slowing down the pace after several weeks of a crazy travel schedule. The kids really loved swimming right out in front and we rented jet skis just a 5 minute walk away. The home is charming and I grabbed a lovely cappuccino from the little restaurant next-door every morning.
