"Set on Boka Bay’s rippling coastline, I found the property drawing on the Italianate architecture of neighboring medieval towns, with arched windows, stone colonnades, terracotta roofs, palm-filled gardens, and a sandy beach. The rooms felt soothing and spacious—the statement Suite One even has its own 268-bottle wine cellar—and the seriously impressive spa offers one- to seven-day programs with high-tech assessments from on-site doctors. For dining, the two headline restaurants are the beachside Sabia and Tapasake Club, the latter helmed by ex-Nobu chef Yannick Bayjoo." - Jonathan Wiggin
"Set on the fjord-like Bay of Kotor in Portonovi Village, One&Only Portonovi felt like the brand’s indulgent European debut—children devour doughnuts at breakfast before heading to KidsOnly for treasure hunts, telescope-making, science labs and stick-raft building, while parents relax poolside with champagne or visit the Chenot Espace for medical-grade wellness. The food impressed—Sabia’s Italian is notable and pizza-making classes are a highlight—and movie nights at the kids’ club let parents slip off to adult dining such as Tapasake Club after a day of family-friendly luxury.

"Surrounded by fjord-like elements in UNESCO-protected Boka Bay, I portray this nearly 20-acre waterfront luxury resort as ideal for couples who value fine details, with Venetian-inspired pavilions, a spectacular spa, luxury rooms and suites, several indoor and outdoor event spaces including a sandy beach, an al fresco garden, waterfront restaurants Sabia and Tapasake, and a contemporary ballroom, while chefs can craft unique culinary experiences and guests can explore the bay by wooden speed boat for postcard-worthy vistas." - Lauren Dana Ellman Lauren Dana Ellman Lauren Dana Ellman is a New York-based writer and editor who specializes in travel, lifestyle, food, and shopping content.
