One&Only Portonovi stands at the entrance to Boka Bay, the UNESCO-listed Bay of Kotor, on Montenegro's Adriatic coast about an hour from Dubrovnik. It opened in 2021 as the brand's first resort in Europe, on a 60-acre site with a private beach in front and the mountains behind. Its 123 rooms, suites and villas are large and open to the outside, with views across the bay or up to the peaks. Villa One is one of the resort's private villas, for families and groups who want a house of their own within the resort. Food leans Mediterranean: Sabia for Italian, Tapasake for a Mediterranean and Japanese mix at the pool club, La Veranda for steak, and Caminetti for drinks and small plates. Wellness is run by Chenot Espace, with detox programmes and science-led treatments, and there are indoor and outdoor pools, a gym, tennis, water sports, a kids' club and babysitting. The resort holds Two MICHELIN Keys and a Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star rating.
