Nammos Hotels and Smokva Bay Forge Partnership for Luxury Destination in Montenegro
A New Era of Luxury Living in Montenegro
The vibrant wave of luxury living is set to ripple through Montenegro as Nammos Hotels & Resorts teams up with Smokva Bay to establish a first-of-its-kind Mediterranean lifestyle destination. Announcing this transformative partnership on July 13, 2026, the duo aims to introduce the Nammos vibe, well-known for its opulent experiences, to one of the Adriatic's most alluring coastal havens.
The Vision
This ambitious project, dubbed Nammos Resort Montenegro, aims to meld elegance with serene natural beauty, featuring a unique blend of luxury accommodations, fine dining, curated retail experiences, and wellness options. Located on the Budva Riviera, the resort is strategically positioned just a short ten-minute drive from the picturesque island of Sveti Stefan.
The resort will comprise a total of 117 rooms, including 47 exquisite hotel suites, 61 branded residences, and 9 luxurious villas. Designed with Mediterranean and Cycladic influences, these residences will highlight coastal heritage while embracing modern architectural aesthetics. Large windows will maximize natural light and offer stunning views of the Adriatic, ensuring that indoor and outdoor living spaces seamlessly blend.
Culinary Delights and Social Spaces
Nammos Resort Montenegro is set to enrich its culinary offerings with a variety of dining options. At the forefront is the renowned beachfront Nammos Restaurant, which will feature Mediterranean cuisine to satisfy even the most discerning palate. Guests can also indulge in all-day Mediterranean fare at Nalu, enjoy craft cocktails at Ilios Lounge, or relax by the rooftop pool bar with breathtaking views of the sunsets.
Envisioned at the heart of the resort is Nammos Village — a creative reinterpretation of the traditional Mediterranean village concept, offering an idyllic setting for art, shopping, and wellbeing. Fitness enthusiasts will appreciate the various hiking and mountain biking trails to explore, along with the spa and fitness facilities. Several swimming pools and private dining venues will also be part of this luxurious offering, catering to guests seeking exclusivity and comfort.
