Portun II

Portun II Overview

First Impressions

Walking through the narrow cobblestone streets of Budva’s Old Town to reach Portun II, you immediately understand why this three-star property has such an incredible location score. I mean, you’re literally steps away from the medieval walls and ancient churches that make this part of Budva so special. The building itself fits perfectly into the historic surroundings — it’s not trying to be flashy or modern, which honestly works in its favor here.

The Heart of Old Town

What struck me most about staying here is how you’re genuinely living like a local in one of Montenegro’s most atmospheric neighborhoods. You can roll out of bed and be at the Citadel in two minutes, or grab fresh burek from the bakery around the corner before the tour groups even arrive. The narrow streets can get busy during peak summer hours, but early mornings and evenings? It’s like having this UNESCO-worthy old town almost to yourself. Couples absolutely love this setup — there’s something undeniably romantic about wandering these ancient alleys together.

Your Room and Comfort

The accommodations are exactly what you’d expect from a well-run three-star place — clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully arranged. My room had that perfect balance of modern amenities without losing the character you want when staying in a historic building. The air conditioning actually works (crucial in summer), and the Wi-Fi is solid throughout the property. You’re not getting marble bathrooms or designer furniture, but honestly, when you’re spending most of your time exploring the coast and old town, you just need a comfortable base — and that’s exactly what Portun II delivers.

Getting Around and Practicalities

Here’s something locals know but tourists often miss — parking in Old Town is basically impossible, so the fact that this place helps sort that out is huge. The staff actually knows the area well enough to give you real advice about avoiding crowds and finding the best spots for sunset photos along the walls. It’s about a ten-minute walk to the main beaches, which sounds like nothing until you’re doing it in 35-degree heat, but the route takes you through some of the prettiest parts of the old quarter.

Why Guests Love It

That 9.4 rating isn’t just numbers — it reflects how this place gets the fundamentals right while giving you an authentic Old Town experience. You’re not paying for unnecessary frills, but you’re getting something more valuable: a genuine connection to one of the Adriatic’s most beautiful historic centers. The location alone means you can experience Budva’s magic during those golden hours when day-trippers have left and the stones still hold warmth from the sun. For couples especially, there’s something pretty special about having coffee on ancient ramparts before anyone else is awake, then returning to a comfortable, well-located home base after a day of exploring the coast.

Many travelers prefer to book apartments in Budva through trusted local agencies that provide insider knowledge about the best locations for experiencing the city’s beautiful coastline and rich history.

Reviews of Portun II

• The from Australia – 1 September 2024 (7/10)

  The location was perfect. Slightly early checkin was appreciated. It was Quiet. Cleaner let us in and was very lovely.
  
  What could be improved: BEWARE CASH ONLY!!!! No wifi code written down in the apartment – which makes it hard when your euro sim doesn't work in Montenegro. No Sheets, just a balling towelling mattress protector. When I asked where sheets were I was told in the wardrobe = which was only duvet/quilt covers – blankets were old (Clean???) and overused. So nothing like the photos you see in the listing. Wardrobe door stuck. TV didn't work – and no batteries in the remote. No dish drainer, no coffee mugs, Lots of light – skimpy old curtains. Outdoor area shown in photos is communal and not easily accessed. No shampoo or conditioner. Aircon was not cold. We're up to 40 different accommodations in the last 6 months and this one was very below the bar – I have no idea how it has a suburb rating on booking.com

  Amazing apartment right in the heart of the old town! The host was very friendly and made sure to meet me in person when I arrived so I wouldn’t get lost in the “maze” of the old town streets. The apartment itself is spacious and comfortable, with great Wi-Fi and air conditioning. It is really nice to have a kitchen and a washing machine as well! Highly recommend!
