Rent a holiday apartment in Bar – Discover coast and culture

Those looking to rent a holiday apartment in Bar are seeking more than just a stay on the coast: Bar lies on Montenegro’s coast and is a port city as well as the centre of the municipality of Bar. At the same time, the destination combines the modern coastal city with the historical dimension surrounding Stari Bar. Bar therefore particularly appeals to travellers who want to combine the Adriatic coast with historical and cultural discoveries instead of limiting their trip to beach days alone.

Key facts: Bar is a coastal city, port city and the centre of the municipality of Bar. The destination’s character includes the modern coastal city, the historical context surrounding Stari Bar and the Rumija mountain range on the distant horizon.
