Bonjour Tristesse – along with Slim Aarons famous 1969 photograph titled simply ‘Sunbathing’. Montenegro enjoyed a similar moment in the 1960s and 70s, when figures such as Orson Welles and Sophia Loren alighted on its meandering coast. Now this little Balkan nation, just an hour’s drive south from Dubrovnik, is resurgent again. There’s excitement in the air. Fresh names are landing. One&Only Resorts and Private Homes have a knack for being in the right place at the right time – one thinks of One&Only Reethi Rah in the Maldives in 2005, One&Only Desaru Coast in Malaysia and One&Only Mandarina in Mexico more recently. So the One&Only Portonovi, on the northern end of Montenegro’s coast, is set to be similarly era-defining, the crest of a new riviera wave for this Mediterranean starlet.
May 2021 107 Located at the entrance of Boka Bay, at the edge of the Adriatic Sea in Montenegro, One&Only Portonovi is the ultra-luxury brand’s first outpost in Europe, welcoming guests from May 1. With its moated walled towns, backdrop of unspoilt coastal mountains and perched amongst one of the sunniest year-round spots on the Adriatic, the resort is a perfectly placed sanctuary from which to explore the coastline and charms of Montenegro. Presenting guests with private sandy beaches, a revolutionary wellness experience with Chenot Espace, world-class dining by Michelin-starred chef Giorgio Locatelli, and the intuitive service for which the brand is renowned, eagerly anticipated One&Only Portonovi is primed to be the crowning jewel of the Adriatic Riviera.
