Forte Rose Resort

Great setting as the restaurant is in its own bay within Kotor Bay with views out towards the sea. We were helped tying to a bouy. Later their own Rib collected us on time and dropped us on their jetty. All the staff have been really nice and obviously naturally friendly. My wife had steak and I had Tiger prawn Pasta. Both were excellent. We drank a Croatian wine which was excellent. Prices were the norm for The region. Loved it… will be back again.

I should start by saying I did not stay here, but as part of a group of 10 staying in a villa in nearby Klinci, we found ourselves in the beautiful village of Rose a lot as it has the only shop for miles. Whilst exploring we found this hotel and made use of its facilities. Firstly, we rented sun loungers on the beautiful beach (it has a number, I’m not sure what number!) which has a 100m stretch with umbrellas, loungers and drink service (no food - this is the only thing that would have made it better). The beach is shingle so water shoes are recommended, especially since one of our group stepped on a sea urchin… ouch! We also asked the reception about boat tours. Rose is absolutely beautiful and located at the mouth of Kotor Bay, but unlike any of the larger towns there are no boat tour operators there despite the perfect location. The receptionist introduced us to Milan, who in turn arranged a wonderful day out on the resorts sailing yacht where we visited the blue cave, went for a swim and stopped off for a lovely Rosé lunch. The Forte Rose team also fitted our group of 10 into the restaurant upon our return where we had an enjoyable and delicious dinner. We found the team at the hotel so helpful that we arranged a return trip to Tivat by speedboat which was a great way to see the bay and the return journey in the pitch-black darkness (whilst 4 kids sang ABBA songs, as a result of watching Mamma Mia the previous evening) was a particular highlight. We also arranged speedboat transfers to both Tivat airport and to Herceg Novi and were so impressed at how helpful staff were each time we made a request. Whilst the village of Rose is quite remote by road it really is easy to get to by sea and having someone reliable to contact to arrange boat trips made our holiday so much better. It is also very extremely beautiful, and several of our group have said if we were to return it would involve a stay at this hotel. Thank you to everyone who was so helpful, despite us not being hotel residents. Your can-do attitude was a real highlight of our stay in Montenegro.

Our experience visiting Forte Rose resort for the afternoon from boat in Montenegro was bittersweet. The setting was undeniably breathtaking, offering some of the most magnificent and charming views I've ever witnessed. The location was truly majestic, with a backdrop of some of the most beautiful scenery in the world. I initially questioned the bartender whether the resort was open to the public, as it exuded an exclusive atmosphere. The bartender was exceptionally kind and accommodating, assuring us that we were welcome. However, our interactions with the maître d' left much to be desired. Despite the availability of numerous tables for four, he seated each couple separately, which seemed unnecessary. A disappointing aspect of our visit was the limited menu and the unavailability of the items we wished to order. To make matters worse, my food never arrived, but it was still included on the bill. When I inquired about my missing order, the maître d' simply informed me that the meal I had requested was no longer available. This interaction left a bitter taste in my mouth, and it became increasingly difficult to enjoy the beautiful setting with such a seemingly unpleasant and unaccommodating individual attending to us. I made a concerted effort to maintain a cordial and friendly demeanor, even though the maître d' appeared disinterested in providing good service. I had hoped to win him over with kindness, but after he informed me that my chosen meal wasn't available, I found myself increasingly disheartened. In the end, it's regrettable that this unpleasant encounter marred what could have been one of the most memorable and beautiful dining venues of our 31 years of marriage. Despite the stunning surroundings, the behavior of the maître d' left a lasting negative impression. I’ve never encountered such a major display of rudeness, and I sincerely wish our visit had been free from this unfortunate encounter.

The hotel is beautiful, the luxury apartments have a private beach and I recommend them. The place is quiet and a true paradise for a couple or family vacation. I recommend visiting the tavern and tasting local products

Hospitality and service was exceptional! Food was delicious, ambient and view is beautiful. We got the tour through the winery and facility. I recommend it fully. Very friendly, definitely coming back.

The restaurant have fantastic view and all preconditions for excellence. However the dishes are overpriced and the elementar hospitality is missing when it comes to advisory role. The starters are small and with prices for main dish. Famous potatous with rosmary was just a jocke.
