Aman Sveti Stefan is reopening for the 2026 summer season.
Located on Montenegro’s Adriatic coast on the fortified island village of Sveti Stefan, just a short drive from Budva and within reach of the Bay of Kotor, the property which embodies the phrase “quiet luxury” is once again ready to welcome guests seeking something a little more under the radar with authentic cultural experiences, access to UNESCO-protected heritage sites and nature-forward experiences.
First up to whet our appetites is 19th century Villa Miločer. Once a royal summer residence, it is set to open on 22 May alongside the Aman Spa, Queen’s Beach and King’s Beach. The main event follows on 1 July, when the island of Sveti Stefan itself reopens, bringing with it its signature dining spots i.e. Arva, Piazza, and the Cliff Bar.
And if you know Aman, you know there will be no sacrifice when it comes to space, privacy, and that intangible feeling of true luxury. Villa Miločer offers just eight suites set among olive groves and pine forests, while the island’s restored stone cottages feel more like a hidden village than a hotel.
Wellness is, of course, front and center. The standalone spa overlooking Queen’s Beach spans nearly 27,000 square feet, featuring hydrotherapy areas, treatment rooms offering treatments that draw on local herbs and botanicals, and an indoor-outdoor 78-foot pool that leans fully into those Adriatic views. Guests can also enjoy boat excursions, scenic picnics, and swimming stops as they explore the lakes and beautiful forests on the island.
Dining is equally special. Arva brings Aman’s Italian concept to the island, serving vibrant dishes inspired by cucina del raccolto tradition, which emphasizes fresh, regional produce. Piazza acts as the social heart for easy, all-day bites. To round off the day, guests can enjoy cocktails, sunset and uninterrupted sea views at the Cliff Bar.
Aman Sveti Stefan has always been one of the brand’s most iconic European properties and its long-awaited reopening puts one of the Adriatic’s most coveted and elusive stays back on the map.
