Aman Sveti Stefan

更多

In a country famed for its beauty, the most iconic images associated with Montenegro are of the tiny islet named Aman Sveti Stefan. Attached to the coast by a narrow isthmus, the island was once a fortified village dating back to the 15th century. Today, Sveti Stefan is opening in phases after a painstaking renovation. This exciting transition has retained the island’s historic air and the sturdy stone buildings with red-tiled roofs are as cheerful amongst the island’s hardy evergreen trees as they were in centuries past. Across the bay on a 32-hectare seaside estate lies Villa Miločer, opened as phase one of Aman Sveti Stefan in December 2008. The stately villa — once the summer residence of Queen Marija Karađorđević — is surrounded by more than 800 Olive trees and embraced on three sides by ancient cedar and pine forests. The island’s accommodations are divided into Village Rooms, Cottages, Deluxe Cottages, Grand Suites and the Sveti Stefan Suite which has its own private swimming pool. Views from the different accommodations are of the sea, rooftops or quaint courtyards and piazzas, depending on their location. Every room, cottage and suite on the island is completely unique, just as one would expect from a place which evolved from a 15th-century fortress.
