Aman Sveti Stefan

The life Adriatic - Pink-sand beaches, crystal-clear waters, and rugged, pine-cloaked mountains form the untamed backdrop to Aman Sveti Stefan, in one of Europe's last corners of truly wild beauty - Montenegro. Stretching across a causeway from a rustic island village to a former royal residence on the mainland, the 80-acre estate divulges charm and sophistication at every turn. Secret coves, a serene Aman Spa, and a spectacular clifftop pool all play their part in this private haven. At the same time, intimate venues, scattered from shoreline to rocky precipice, offer endless inspiration for celebrations. A stroll along the shoreline, Queen’s Beach, the scallop-shaped bay considered Montenegro’s finest, is at the exclusive disposal of Aman guests.

In a country famed for its beauty, Montenegro's most iconic images are of the tiny islet named Sveti Stefan, once a fortified village dating back to the 15th century. Today, the island’s cluster of sturdy stone buildings, together with Villa Milocer, a graceful stone manse on the mainland across the bay, comprises the idyllic beachside resort of Aman Sveti Stefan. The resort provides guests with personalized guided excursions to natural and cultural attractions in the area. Aman Sveti Stefan offers a total of 58 guest accommodations with 50 rooms, cottages, and suites on the island and 8 suites at Villa Milocer.

Now restored in a harmonious blend of old European grandeur and contemporary style paying homage to the region’s incredible past, the villa is an eight-suite haven providing a peaceful retreat in wonderful surroundings. The resort will also incorporate the historic 15th-century island of Sveti Stefan soon. When phase two is completed, 47 additional suites will be available on the island, along with a unique collection of dining, entertainment, and wellness venues.
