Herceg Novi climbs from the sea in a cascade of stairways, terraces and gardens full of mimosa, palms and bougainvillea. Founded in the fourteenth century at the mouth of the Bay of Kotor, it has fortresses from many eras, a lively old town and a seven-kilometre promenade that links the neighbourhoods along the water.
Why Herceg Novi
Herceg Novi offers one of the best balances of lifestyle and value on the coast. Prices remain more accessible than in Budva or Tivat, yet the town has everything needed for year-round life: schools, a hospital, the renowned Igalo health and rehabilitation centre, markets and a strong local community.
Its position is a real advantage. Dubrovnik and its airport are about half an hour away, Tivat airport is reached by car or by the short ferry crossing at Kamenari, and the beaches of Luštica lie just across the water.
The season
The season runs from May to October, and the town's festivals start earlier still: the Mimosa Festival in February celebrates the end of winter with flowers and music. The climate is among the mildest in Montenegro, so many owners use their homes for much of the year.
Where to buy
- Old town and Topla for atmosphere: stone houses and apartments close to the fortresses and the promenade.
- Savina and Meljine for views: quiet residential slopes overlooking the entrance to the bay.
- Igalo for convenience: flat streets, beaches and services, popular with retirees and families.
- Kumbor, Đenovići and Baošići for the waterfront: villages along the bay with new apartments and private moorings.
Living here
Herceg Novi is a town of walkers. The promenade connects cafés, beaches and harbours, and the stairs keep everyone fit. Culture is part of daily life, with summer film and theatre festivals, galleries and the monastery of Savina among the trees.
Our view
For families, retirees and investors seeking steady rental income without resort prices, Herceg Novi is one of the most sensible choices in Montenegro. We help you find the homes with genuine sea views and easy access, which in a town of stairs make all the difference.
