The Heritage Grand Perast by Rixos is the hotel group's first property in the country

Rixos has arrived in Montenegro with its first hotel, The Heritage Grand Perast.

Reopened in April under the all-inclusive brand as the Heritage Grand Perast by Rixos, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the hotel underwent a two-year renovation to become an immersive resort destination offering guests a luxury experience.

To mark the occasion, a signing ceremony took place at the hotel and was attended by the prime minister of Montenegro, Dr Dritan Abazović and Rixos chief business officer Francois Baudin.

The hotel is housed in a restored 18th-century palace, one of only 16 preserved palaces in Perast, a picturesque coastal town on the Bay of Kotor, surrounded by views of mountains and crystal-clear waters.

Enjoying this prime location on the shores of the Adriatic Sea, the hotel comprises four buildings – Smekja, Jadran, Grado and Teodo – and there are 130 rooms, including eight duplex rooms, a Royal Suite and Royal Duplex Suite.
