Maestral Resort & Casino Sveti Stefan

... hustle and bustle is one of the many reasons why the Tati apartments are the perfect choice for your holiday. The nearest beach is only 10 minutes short walk away and a further 5 minutes takes you to Ulcinj Old Town and the Mala Plaza (Small Beach).

The Tati Apartments opened for guests in 2008. The property comprises 20 beds spread over 5 apartments. Each apartment is furnished to the highest standard with air-conditioning, TV, satellite TV, a handy ...

I had quite a tiring day today, plenty of walking involved that's for sure. I started off by taking a stroll along the beach front towards the old town which is perched up on the corner of the coast in an old castle or citadel as it is always called here. The weather wasn't the best and it was cloudy which never looks nice in photos and it takes away from the beauty of a place but still it was nice. The old town was covered with red roofs and was like a mini Dubrovnik from ...

... way. I can't be certain what park it was because I didn't know the geographical area; we soon arrived at our destination. Darko's father lived in the most incredibly beautiful green hills in an area of Serbia existing somewhere between Beograd and Montenegro. Immediately upon entering and meeting his father, stepmother and grandmother who recently passed away, I felt part of the family. Although his family did not speak English, Darko and Bojana translated for me. Darko's ...

... do the same here. So I set off towards the centre, past run down back streets that wouldn't look out of place in a village and assorted broken down cars. If it wasn't for the mountains that overlooked the city, I'd say it was probably the ugliest place I'd ever visited. That impression changed when I crossed the river and the buildings all took on a more Mediterranean feel. Central to this area was of course the Hercegovacka ...

... dachow. Potem poszlismy nad przystan. Juz z pewnej odleglosci widzialam, ze ktos mi machal, ale nie bylam pewna, czy to faktycznie do mnie. Pomyslalam tylko "facet wyglada jak Goran". Gdy podeszlismy blizej, okazalo sie, ze to... Goran, moj serbski wykladowca, we wlasnej osobie! Obok niego stala jeszcze jedna Pani Doktor, z ktora mialam zajecia na ...

Anyway, sidetracking away from what we're actually doing - what's the van life really like? Absolutely awesome! As we sit writing this in Albania (yes, we are a bit behind), parked up right on a lovely virtually deserted beach with some cool tunes, with a view you couldn't pay for, it couldn't be better. Having a shower and toilet has meant we can just stop anywhere, and ...

... since reading a feature in National Geographics magazine that Cur lent me. I even dreamed about it one night. I usually don't remember my dreams so this is rare (the consequence of falling deeply asleep as soon as my head hits the pillow). I thought the article said that the island was 2 km from Budva but after 1 hour of uphill mountain riding on the freeway, I conceded I ...

... do little more than sit in silence! The border crossing was very quick and easy- the driver seemed to know the guards so that probably made things easier. Montenegro is beautiful. I cant really explain the change in atmosphere, as the scenery is probably similar to Albania, but it just seemed less sparse and depressing (not that Albania's terrible of course) and definitely more of a holiday destination. We drove towards the sea, which was bright blue ...

... adriatic from our deck. We also found out that the incompetent desk clerk had given us a free nights stay bc we checked in after midnight and he marked the dates down wrong. as i said, driving was a genius move. today we did the dubrovnik thing, its raining now so were chilling indoors, tomorrow well check out an island and then on to Kotar, Montenegro. Unfortunately ee has decided that well both be "safer" if i dont drive, so were busing it. til then pete and yiyi

... Clearly, these cruisegoers were all over the O.C., and you could so easily pick out who was a Carnival cruisegoer and who was not. It was nice later in the day when they had clearly gone back to their boat. One other interesting observation. Both days, we noticed a maitre 'd outside of a restaurant sporting a South Park tie. It seemed so out of place, and I can't imagine he has ever seen an episode. We tried to get a few surreptitious photos, but I'm not sure how we did. Our ...
