Perched on Montenegro’s sun-drenched Budva Riviera, Dukley Hotel & Resort is the very definition of understated sophistication meets coastal cool. Think Mediterranean glamour, private beaches, thoughtful design, all delivered with the ease of “island life” luxury.
We stayed in a sumptuous two‑bedroom residence: two full bathrooms, a fully stocked kitchen, expansive living space, and a generous balcony looking out over your own private beach and hot tub, making it feel more like a tailored apartment than a hotel room.
The Residence: More Home Than Hotel
Spread across ~110 m², the two‑bedroom apartment delivered in spades. Plush linens, smart air-conditioning, and subtle modern touches created a feeling of curated comfort. The kitchen boasted an espresso machine, dining area, and a fully stocked fridge. It was the kind of space you could settle into and call home for more than a few days.
The balcony stole the show, a hot tub, looking toward Budva Old Town across calm aquamarine waters. Sipping a cold beer at sunset while waves lapped below felt like the highlight of the stay.
Days by Design: Leisure & Wellness
Dukley’s crowning glory? Three private beaches, each with distinct character:
Dukley Beach, sandy and sun-drenched, with stunning views of Budva Old Town, but far from the crowd, here the day unfolds to the rhythm of gentle waves. Lounge music plays softly in the background as you relax on comfortable sun loungers with fresh towels. Laguna Beach, crystal clear water, spacious terrace, comfortable sofas, shaded lounge, great restaurant, and a healing view. As the name suggests — a lagoon for those seeking authenticity without effort. Perfect for quiet afternoons or romantic dinners. Sumosan Beach, Think panoramic sunsets, comfortable sun loungers, curated DJ sets, and a rhythm that grows faster as the day unfolds. With a menu that redefines Japanese classics and a cocktail scene to match, this is both gastronomic and beach gem at the Adriatic.
There’s also an infinity pool framed by the Adriatic and a full-service spa offering a sauna, steam room, jacuzzi, and deep‑tissue massages. We indulged in the sauna, steam session, and jacuzzi, then cooled off with cold water and eucalyptus-scented towels. It felt restorative, indulgent, and deeply relaxing.
The gym was well-equipped too, great for keeping your workout routine on track. Mornings here start with slow movement, light, and the scent of salt, sea and herbs in the air.
Morning Fuel: Breakfast with a View
Breakfast was served at a beachfront terrace overlooking the Adriatic, easily one of the most scenic ways to start the day. Plates arrived with fresh fruit, bowls of yogurt, flaky pastries, and eggs cooked to order. Everything was high quality, beautifully presented, and
