From the terrace of my room, the sky looks the same shade of blue as the waters of the Adriatic Sea. My sapphire-coloured canvas is interrupted by a lush green mountain on which terracotta-coloured roofs pop out. Every so often, the tranquility of this quiet corner of Montenegro is disturbed by a small boat or a large cruise ship, but never for long.
In the distance, the enduring series of mountain chains and valleys between which the sun eventually settles is a sight of eternal beauty, one that charmed author George Bernard Shaw and actress Sophia Loren, and made One&Only choose this exclusive location for its first European property.
