Jaz Garden Residence Overview

First Impressions

When I first pulled up to Jaz Garden Residence, I honestly wasn’t expecting much from a three-star property — but this place completely changed my perspective. Tucked away in Lastva Grbaljska, just outside the main hustle of Budva, it feels like you’ve discovered something special that most tourists rush right past. The building itself has this clean, modern look that’s refreshingly understated, and there’s immediately this sense of calm that you don’t get in the crowded hotel zones closer to town. The attention to detail throughout the property sets a welcoming tone from the moment you arrive.

Location & Getting Around

You know what’s brilliant about this spot? You’re close enough to Budva’s beaches and nightlife (maybe a 10-minute drive), but far enough away that you actually get some peace and quiet. I mean, couples absolutely love it here — and I can see why. The area feels residential and authentic, like you’re staying where locals might actually live. Plus, there’s parking right on site, which is honestly a godsend if you’re planning to explore Montenegro by car. Trust me, finding parking in central Budva during summer is a nightmare you’ll want to avoid. The convenient access to local attractions makes it an ideal base for your vacation.

The Room Experience

Here’s where this place really surprised me — the beds are genuinely fantastic. I’m usually pretty picky about mattresses when I travel, but I slept better here than I have at some much pricier hotels. The room itself was spotless and well-designed, with this nice balance of being modern but not sterile. Everything felt thoughtfully put together, from the lighting to the bathroom setup. It’s not fancy or over-the-top, but honestly, sometimes that’s exactly what you want after a long day of sightseeing. The comfortable accommodations ensure a restful night’s sleep.

What Makes It Special

The staff here actually seem to care about what they’re doing — you can tell the difference immediately. They’re not just going through the motions like at some of the bigger resort properties. The whole place has this attention to detail that you notice in small ways throughout your stay. The common areas are always immaculate, and there’s this garden area (hence the name, I suppose) that’s actually quite lovely for morning coffee or evening wind-down time. This dedication to service excellence truly sets the property apart.

Why Guests Love It

Look, this isn’t going to be the fanciest place you’ve ever stayed, but it does everything really well without any pretense. The combination of great sleep, peaceful location, and genuinely helpful service creates this experience that just works. Recent guests have been rating it incredibly highly — and after staying there myself, I completely understand why. It’s one of those places where you end up extending your stay because you’re just comfortable. Sometimes that matters more than all the bells and whistles in the world. The overall value and quality make it a standout choice for discerning travelers.

Exploring Budva offers visitors an unforgettable journey through Montenegro’s coastal jewel, from its ancient citadel to its pristine beaches and lively summer atmosphere.

Reviews of Jaz Garden Residence

  • Buran from Germany – 27 August 2024 (10/10)

    I came back to this location for the third time. Even though a few years have passed since the last visit, the owners and the place have remained unchanged. Kind people and a quiet location, away from the hustle and bustle of Budva. We came with two children, to relax and enjoy the vacation. Even if the beach is not very close, for us it was not a problem. We traveled by car and stayed all day at the seaside. We were able to park the car in the yard, which was a plus for us. Most cases do not offer parking. We will definitely come back next year.

  • Filiz from Turkey – 20 June 2024 (10/10)

    A beautiful garden, comfortable room with everything you need and a lovely host. Excellent price! Anyone who stays at another place in Budva is out of their minds. ♥️

  • Friedrich from Germany – 18 September 2023 (10/10)

    We had a wonderful time. The hospitality was overwhelming. We were welcomed with a bowl of figs and a few days later with another bowl of figs and grapes. The accommodation was great, a bit far from Budva, but with a beautiful garden. If you have a car this accommodation is perfect because it is perfectly located for excursions. Thank you for a great time!
