Our house is situated in Igalo, Herceg-Novi, 100 m far from the sea – from the terrace you can see the breathtaking views surrounding the house.
Igalo is 30 min. drive from the Dubrovnik Airport Cilipi, and 30 min. drive from the Tivat Airport . On your way to these airports you drive through the beautiful landsapces – to reach the Tivat Airport you must cross a narrow sea channel by ferry, what is an enjoyable experinece for most people.
You can get to the nearby post office, grocery store, bakery an bus stop in one minute. You can get to the concrete or pebble beach, in one minute too.On the beach you can hire sun loungers and parasols or you can take your own with you. Cafe bars are quite close to the beaches, so refreshment drinks are within reach.
During the day you can have excursions by boat in the Herceg Novi Bay or in the whole Bay of Kotor . The boats can take you to the beautiful old towns of Kotor and Perast, and the two islets St. George and Our Lady of the Rock, but they can also take you to the popular excursion sites like Rose, Njivice, Žanjice, Mirište, Mamula Island situated at the entrance of the Bay of Kotor and to the well-known Blue Cave in which the sea water has unbelievable blue-violet colour. The main bus-station is 15 min., and the ancillary bus-station 3 min.- walk from our house. Unfortunately, the town of Herceg-Novi does not have its own railway station, and the nearest one is in Bar which is one-hour drive from Herceg-Novi.
At night you can go to various places, and find something of interest for you. The guests who like beach bars and electronic music can find several such places. For those who like to be indoor there are discoteques in the vicinity. If you like the sound of ethno music and dance you can find such places as well. There are some cafe-bars where you can realx with a cheaper drink and the sounds of music of older times. There are numerous restaurants where you can enjoy fish dishes and good wines accompanied by Mediterranean music and candle lights. Or you can only sit on one of the beaches and enjoy wathching town's lights and stars and breathe in the fresh sea air which will relax you and leave a lasting impression on you. For the guests who are more energetic we have a vey long promenade.
Strolling along on the promenade you will pass by the town's port - you can visit it and admire its anchored boats. The children can enjoy in the amusement park which is alway there. You can buy ice-creams everywhere, a cooked or grilled corn and cotton candy flosses, while the skilful painters will make your portrait in a very short time. Souvenirs made of sand or shells with the picture of our town on it reminding you of your stay here can be bought in several souvenir shops.
If you decide to visit our town you won't be sorry because Herceg Novi is a town which
will make you come back again. It is „a town which you miss“. |
