Villa Lydia is really as good as it is described. I was looking for a place to stay on this site and I am very glad that I was not mistaken. The only problem arose with charter flights from Kyiv, VizeAir was delayed wherever it could, so you need to be ready for this. In Boryspil, you can wait for your flight with relative comfort, but the airport in Tivat is not at all adapted to this. If the flight from Tivat is delayed, do not rush through customs and passport control, it is better to take a walk around the airport. The waiting room is very small, when two or three charters try to fly away at the same time, there is not something to sit down, there is nowhere to stand. Drinking water is sold only in Duty Free, the toilet is basically a warehouse / garbage dump of boxes. Of course, these temporary inconveniences will not spoil the impressions of the rest, but you need to be mentally prepared for them.
Villa Lydia is really very beautiful and comfortable, the location is wonderful, it was always quiet in the evening. There were no problems with food. The Kangaroo restaurant is located nearby, with good cuisine and reasonable prices (vegetable salad 1.5 euros; a portion of veal cutlets on the bone, these are two cutlets with potatoes - 5.9 euros; fish fillet (2 pieces plus a mandatory side dish ) - 3.5 euros; 0.5 l of draft beer - 2 euros). If you don’t want to go to a restaurant, you can buy meat in the store opposite it (chicken, pork, a variety of sausages, meatballs, etc. ), which will be grilled with spices in front of you (3 pork cutlets on the bone - 2.7 euros). Nearby is a supermarket, a liter of yogurt 1% fat 1.2 euros, a bag (375g) of corn flakes 1.78-2.75 euros, 0.5 liters of still water 0.5 euros. It is better to buy bottled water for drinking and cooking, tap water, although drinking, gives a precipitate. The beaches are all in good condition, but to feast on, as we, perhaps, will not succeed: 1.5 euros for a head of corn is still a little expensive. We rented a car, were very pleased with both the vehicle (Toyota Yaris, manual, 60 euros per day) and the trip (excellent quality roads, everyone follows the rules, at least in the mountains; and amazing landscapes outside the window, plus the opportunity to stop when you want , and see and capture everything). At some rental points, there are restrictions on driving experience (at least 2 years) or age (at least 21 years). Gasoline 95 costs 1.2 euros per liter, so economical small cars are popular.
In general, I became stronger in the opinion that when going to countries like Montenegro, it is more interesting and informative to rent a room in a villa or an apartment. Especially if the owners are as welcoming and friendly as Lydia and Turgut.
