Regent Porto Montenegro designed by ReardonSmith Architects and ReardonSmith Landscape opened its doors this September.
Designed with a style inspired by the exquisite houses that grace the region’s beautiful Adriatic coastline, the building’s architecture also responds to the classical manner of the grand palazzos of the Italian lakes.
Porto Montenegro is located in the Bay of Kotor on Montenegro’s Adriatic coast. It is one of Europe’s largest natural deep-water harbours, and today a UNESCO World Heritage site.
Directly on the waterfront of the Boka bay, and with a large inlet, Venice Square Basin, to one side, the hotel gives its guests an exclusive connection with sea and marina. The restaurants, bars and banqueting space are all sea-facing, including the main entrance, on the street side, is located to frame the view of the water beyond; all the guestrooms and apartments offer spectacular sea or mountain views.
Comprising of 51 double bedrooms and 35 suites and residences. Two four bedroom penthouses boast a plunge pool and are surrounded by large terraces top the two sea-facing wings. The two two-bedroom penthouses top the central section of the fifth floor, and also have enviable views down to the tranquil garden outside and across the Boka.
Along the colonnade is where you will find the indoor/outdoor spaces of the main lobby, library bar, gourmet corner patisserie café and the dining room restaurant, with sunken terraces surrounded by calm water channels and reflecting pools that provide secluded nooks for alfresco dining and drinking.
A grand staircase connects the lobby to the first floor which accommodates the main function space. Extending the length of the hotel between the two wings, it looks onto a 20 metre outdoor infinity edge swimming pool directly outside its full-height, glazed façade doors.
The construction of the luxury hotel has coincided with the expansion of the marina from 185 to 400 berths, 87 of which are for yachts over 45 meters, and a new refit and maintenance facility for superyachts, as well as the continuing development of apartments, boutiques and restaurants.
