We rented 2 rooms at this 5 star hotel at a very high price. We understand it could be due to high season. The amazing view is so unique. But bathroom had lot of mold in the shower, hotel has no gym and breakfast is just fair. The staff was really nice.

Located close to beach. Panoramic scenery to the front facing the sea. Very friendly staff and very good breakfast spread. Parking is tricky however staff always available to help out with valet parking. They even allowed us with an early check in and provided us with a takeaway breakfast as we had to vacate early to catch our flight back. Overall a very pleasant experience and would highly recommend.

Nestled between the Adriatic Sea and the rugged Montenegrin mountains, Hotel California by Aycon offers a five-star experience that’s as scenic as it is serene. From the moment you arrive, the panoramic views of the iconic Sveti Stefan island take center stage—especially if you book a sea-facing room. The hotel’s private beach is just steps away, complete with complimentary loungers and umbrellas, making it easy to soak in the coastal charm. Breakfast is a standout, with fresh fruit, variety of hot and cold options and the the hotel’s location is perfectly walkable to a number of restaurants. I couldn't have imagined a more scenic end to our holiday in Montenegro.

Perfection in the details

After traveling for 40 days throughout Croatia and Montenegro, this hotel stood out as one of our favorites. Good design is not only beautiful, it functions well. This is the one hotel that delivers on both fronts. Situated perfectly across from Sveti with it's own sandy beach, terrific restaurant and amazing staff. Our dinner on the outdoor patio was one of our best meals of the month, while the breakfast buffet offers everything you would want to wake up to. I highly recommend Hotel California for your stay.

Unhappy customer

Very happy about their vale service. Unfortunately we were asked to leave a bottle of Pepsi cola to and do not enter the restaurant area with than can . It was purchased at the beach bar which is a part of the hotel along with other drinks. It was not only inappropriate but also very rude. We asked a glass to pour the Pepsi. It was denied. I am going to regret that we picked that hotel inspite of the chef’s great dishes and beautiful view. One person’s response is good enough to spoil it.

Ficamos em um apto para 4 pessoas porém não sei se seria um espaço conveniente . Camas pequenas e banheiro também pequeno para essa opção . Ar condicionando bem barulhento . E não houve reposições de amenidades . Limpeza precisa ser melhorada .Para um hotel 5 estrelas isso é um diferencial negativo .
