Called Mamula Island by Banyan Tree, the resort is tucked away in a restored 19th-century fortress at the entrance to the bay. <\/p>\n<p>The resort is the result of a seven-year restoration that carefully preserves the site\u2019s historic character while blending it with a contemporary luxury flair. <\/p>\n<p>Originally built in the 1850s, Fort Mamula was once a coastal defence fortification. The arch, a feature of the original fortress, was reimagined throughout the resort, including bespoke furniture created specially for the property. <\/p>\n<p>The design in its entirety draws on mid-century influences, featuring natural stone, aged brass and solid oak, as well as highlighting local artisanal traditions of pottery and joinery to reflect the location\u2019s heritage.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>A stay overlooking the Adriatic<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Access to the 32-key sanctuary starts at one of the several nearby airports, with the closest being Montenegro\u2019s Tivat International Airport. From there, guests can request either a direct boat transfer from the airport\u2019s water terminal or opt to arrive via helicopter instead. <\/p>\n<p>Whether by sea or air, guests are sure to see stunning views of the Adriatic Sea \u2013 a theme which continues throughout one\u2019s stay. <\/p>\n<p>On offer are guest rooms and three suite categories to choose from, each designed to maximise the views of the Adriatic. <\/p>\n<p>Starting at \u20ac1,727 on average per night, excluding taxes and fees, the Adriatic Balcony Room can sleep two guests and includes access to a shared garden complete with olive trees. <\/p>\n<p>Other amenities include a stargazing telescope, floor-to-ceiling windows as well as a private cinema.<\/p>\n<div class=\"widget widget--type-gallery widget--size-fullwidth widget--animation-fade-in widget--align-center\" data-ratio=\"0.75\" data-gallery-img-nb=\"7\" data-gallery-key=\"13328770-746a-11f1-a1ce-1b4a23c30d17\" data-gallery-featured-index=\"0\">\n<div class=\"widget__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"widget__ratio widget__ratio--auto\">\n<div class=\"widget__contents\">\n<figure class=\"widget__figure widget__figure-has-button\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"widget__gallery__image\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/images.euronews.com\/articles\/library\/111\/41\/22\/80\/69\/04\/88\/1114138c876e22806957eed7c96cda8ad0e5e048899b\/384x288_cmsv2_71367352-7e76-512b-83ee-6725c27d55b2-1114138c876e22806957eed7c96cda8ad0e5e048899b.jpg\" alt><\/p>\n<div class=\"widget__button__title u-color-white u-margin-top-0 u-text-transform-none u-text-weight-bold\">View Gallery<\/div>\n<div class=\"widget__button__text u-display-flex u-text-weight-semibold u-text-size-extra-small\">7 Photos<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Dining at the resort focuses on the micro-seasonality of the Montenegrin coast, with fresh seafood and local produce always served up on the menu. <\/p>\n<p>The Parasol restaurant, a stone&#8217;s throw away from the three outdoor pools, gives diners a crudo experience with the catches of the day. <\/p>\n<p>Other dining concepts include Kamena Restaurant, which spotlights local land-led flavours, and Celeste, which offers relaxed outdoor dining and a choice of Italian, Caribbean and Levantine flavours.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Refresh, relax and explore<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The Banyan Tree Spa, located within the historic fortress tower, utilises local fauna, oils and natural elements, as well as making use of the stunning landscape.<\/p>\n<p>Guests can take advantage of the spa\u2019s Finnish and herbal saunas, steam room as well as traditional Thai, Javanese, Indonesian and Chinese healing therapies and therapeutic bodywork on offer.<\/p>\n<p>For a more dynamic approach to wellbeing, the resort also encourages being active in the great outdoors. Guests can explore the coast onboard a kayak, paddleboard or water bike. <\/p>\n<p>Other experiences include sunrise swims in the Blue Cave, right off of the Bay of Kotor in the Lu\u0161tica Peninsula, which gets its name from the strikingly blue waters. Beyond the bay, the resort also curates excursions to Kotor Old Town, Royal Lov\u0107en and Cetinje, Skadar Lake and the Tara River.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>                                  Go to

Called Mamula Island by Banyan Tree, the resort is tucked away in a restored 19th-century fortress at the entrance to the bay.The resort is the result of a seven-year restoration that carefully preserves the site\u2019s historic character while blending it with a contemporary luxury flair.Originally built in the 1850s, Fort Mamula was once a coastal defence fortification. The arch, a feature of the original fortress, was reimagined throughout the resort, including bespoke furniture created specially for the property.The design in its entirety draws on mid-century influences, featuring natural stone, aged brass and solid oak, as well as highlighting local artisanal traditions of pottery and joinery to reflect the location\u2019s heritage.A stay overlooking the AdriaticAccess to the 32-key sanctuary starts at one of the several nearby airports, with the closest being Montenegro\u2019s Tivat International Airport. From there, guests can request either a direct boat transfer from the airport\u2019s water terminal or opt to arrive via helicopter instead.Whether by sea or air, guests are sure to see stunning views of the Adriatic Sea \u2013 a theme which continues throughout one\u2019s stay.On offer are guest rooms and three suite categories to choose from, each designed to maximise the views of the Adriatic.Starting at \u20ac1,727 on average per night, excluding taxes and fees, the Adriatic Balcony Room can sleep two guests and includes access to a shared garden complete with olive trees.Other amenities include a stargazing telescope, floor-to-ceiling windows as well as a private cinema.Dining at the resort focuses on the micro-seasonality of the Montenegrin coast, with fresh seafood and local produce always served up on the menu.The Parasol restaurant, a stone&#8217;s throw away from the three outdoor pools, gives diners a crudo experience with the catches of the day.Other dining concepts include Kamena Restaurant, which spotlights local land-led flavours, and Celeste, which offers relaxed outdoor dining and a choice of Italian, Caribbean and Levantine flavours.Refresh, relax and exploreThe Banyan Tree Spa, located within the historic fortress tower, utilises local fauna, oils and natural elements, as well as making use of the stunning landscape.Guests can take advantage of the spa\u2019s Finnish and herbal saunas, steam room as well as traditional Thai, Javanese, Indonesian and Chinese healing therapies and therapeutic bodywork on offer.For a more dynamic approach to wellbeing, the resort also encourages being active in the great outdoors. Guests can explore the coast onboard a kayak, paddleboard or water bike.Other experiences include sunrise swims in the Blue Cave, right off of the Bay of Kotor in the Lu\u0161tica Peninsula, which gets its name from the strikingly blue waters. Beyond the bay, the resort also curates excursions to Kotor Old Town, Royal Lov\u0107en and Cetinje, Skadar Lake and the Tara River.<\/div>\n<p>[analyse_source url=&#8221;https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/travel\/2026\/06\/30\/mamula-island-by-banyan-tree-opens-in-montenegro-the-luxury-brands-first-resort-in-europe&#8221;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[analyse_image type=&#8221;featured&#8221; src=&#8221;https:\/\/images.euronews.com\/articles\/stories\/09\/81\/88\/85\/1200x675_cmsv2_a528823f-0b87-5af0-aa4f-a93a1edcf0d2-9818885.jpg&#8221;] Europe News Over 1 million migrants apply for Spain&#8217;s mass regularisation, PM says Top News Stories Today Latest news bulletin | June 30th, 2026 \u2013 Midday Markets Japanese yen sinks to 40-year low against the US dollar Health news Europe\u2019s current heatwave is just a \u2018dress rehearsal,\u2019 WHO warns Europe News Over [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[90],"tags":[226,36],"class_list":["post-2018811","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-international","tag-crawlmanager","tag-euronews-com"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2018811","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2018811"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2018811\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2018811"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2018811"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/analyse.optim.biz\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2018811"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
