Amazing hotel and restaurant!
Pros:

This place is heaven! Me and my husband stayed here for 7 nights and it was absolutely perfect. Surrounded by olive trees and nature, with a super nice big room and with one of the best restaurants in Montenegro. We felt absolutely at home here, the staff is always smiling and attentive and the owners go on and beyond to make you feel comfortable and enjoy the best holiday. I would always recommend this place and be happy to go back!

Pros:

Već drugu godinu zaredom dolazimo u ovaj divni hotel na rođendan glave naše porodice i to je postala prekrasna i veoma prijatna naša porodična tradicija.
Prekrasno, ugodno mjesto okruženo starim veličanstvenim maslinama, umirujuća atmosfera u kojoj možete istinski i bez žurbe odmoriti od posla, gradske buke i beskrajnog toka obaveza – sve je to o ovom divnom mjestu.
Osoblje hotela je izuzetno pažljivo i ljubazno, uvijek izlazi u susret u svim pitanjima – to je veoma prijatno i mnogo vrijedi!
Poseban užitak je restoran hotela – iznad svih pohvala! Veličanstvena kuhinja sa izuzetno ukusnim jelima od ribe i mesa. Inače, doručci su takođe odlični i bogati raznovrsnošću, veoma nam se sviđaju.
Ogromno hvala! Naša porodica sa velikim zadovoljstvom nastaviće ovu tradiciju i rado ćemo se vraćati kod vas ponovo!
S poštovanjem,
porodica Civako


This is already our second year coming to this wonderful hotel to celebrate the birthday of the head of our family, and it has become a beautiful and very pleasant family tradition.
A wonderful cozy place surrounded by old majestic olive trees, a peaceful and soothing atmosphere where you can truly relax without rush from work, city noise and the endless flow of daily tasks — this is exactly what this remarkable place offers.
The hotel staff is extremely attentive and friendly, always going out of their way to accommodate every request — this is very pleasant and truly appreciated!
A special delight is the hotel restaurant — it is beyond all praise! The cuisine is magnificent, with incredibly delicious fish and meat dishes. By the way, the breakfasts are also excellent and very diverse, we like them a lot.
A huge thank you! Our family will gladly continue this tradition and will be happy to return to you again!
Best regards,
The Civako Family

Pros:

Ein wunderschönes Haus , zwischen alten und sehr alten Olivenbäumen. Das Haus ziemlich exklusiv, vielleicht etwas über, weil die Idee mit einer Dusche nur mit einer glastür von Zimmer getrennt war etwas unpraktisch.
Das Restaurant dafür extra klasse und das Frühstück satte 10 Punkte.

Cons:

Wie gesagt dusche und wc etwas unpraktisch eingebaut, soll vielleicht etwas besonderes sein, aber bei vielen Gästen ist es unpraktisch.

Nice stay, unfortunately only one night.
Pros:

Very friendly staff, nice room (although view only when standing and through a roof window), breakfast was very good with sweet and savoury choices as well as fresh fruit and scrambled egg (served in plates, no buffet), good WiFi and easy parking.

Cons:

Unfortunately we could not use the pool, because I think it was not open yet, since season just started. Could also be just bad luck that the weather blew many leaves in.
Bathroom had a bad smell from the drain.

Этот отель и ресторан подарил нам много незабываемых впечатлений и красивых снимков💕
Pros:

Просторные номера, отзывчивый персонал, красивый интерьер, очень хороший ресторан.
Отдельно хочется отметить, что на любую просьбу мгновенно реагировали, чувствуется, что о гостях действительно заботятся, а не делают вид.
Обязательно вернемся ещё и не раз.

Pros:

It’s simply perfect place. Do not hesitate if you’re considering to stay in this area. We’ve crossed the whole country and it’s one of the most if not the most delicious food. Location is perfect near the sea shore with pines coming straight to the water, 8 minutes away from THE very center of old city of Ulcinj, deep in olive gardens. The staff is great.

Cons:

We had to move and keep our journey going)

Schönes Haus in einer schönen Natur
Pros:

Das Hotel ist sehr schön, da wir ausserhalb der Saison da waren, war der Pool noch nicht geöffnet. Das Gebäude befindet sich in einem großen Olivenhain inmitten einer schönen Natur. Ein Auto ist erforderlich, dann ist man schnell in der Stadtmitte. Das Hotel verfügt über ein Restaurant. Frühstück wird am Tisch serviert und ist frisch und sehr reichlich. Wir waren zu fünft und haben nie alles geschafft. Kaffee wird frisch gebrüht und ebenfalls an den Tisch gebracht. Die Zimmer sind geschamckvoll eingerichtet und werden täglich gereinigt. Immer wenn wir vom Frühstück kamen war das Zimmer bereits sauber, Handtücher gab es jeden Tag neu. Der Inhaber und ein Sohn sind sehr freundlich und geben Tipps. Alles in allem hat es uns sehr gut gefallen und wir würden das Hotel wieder wählen,

Cons:

Das Bad war etwas gewöhnungsbedürtig. Toilette und Dusche sind einem einem, so dass man nach dem Duschen nasse Füsse bekommt, wenn man nochmal zu Toilette muss. Allerdings war dieses "Problem" nach dem Duschen morgens dann behoben von der Reininungskraft.

Pros:

Die Anlage im alten Olivenhain sowie der Pool sind wunderschön angelegt. Leider wird sich darauf ausgeruht. Das Personal war überwiegend freundlich.

Cons:

Insgesamt wirken die Zimmer unfertig. Es gab nur eine Nachtichlampe, diese funktionierte mit Akku und war bei unserer Ankunft nicht aufgeladen. Bei jedem Duschen gab es eine Überschwemmung im Badezimmer, weil der Abfluss verstopft war. Leider roch es auch überall nach Gulli, was mit viel Raumduft zu übertünchen versucht wurde und nur bedingt gelang.

Sowohl das Frühstück als auch das Abendessen waren in Ordnung, wobei wir während unseres 2-wöchigen Urlaubs in Montenegro weitaus besser gegessen haben. Als wir uns beim Frühstück einen weiteren Kaffee bestellt haben, kam plötzlich eine Rechnung für diese. Wir haben noch nie erlebt, dass der Kaffee am Morgen in einem Hotel auf einen limitiert ist und wir sind schon viel rumgekommen.

Das Bett war nicht sonderlich bequem.

Der Strand war leider nicht 100 Meter vom Hotel entfernt, sondern laut Google Maps 1,4 Kilometer.

Insgesamt waren wir leider enttäuscht.

Inget jag absolut vill uppleva igen, men intressant ändå om man har humor.
Pros:

Frukosten hade varit ganska ok om den serverats med skydd mot alla flugor. Annars var atmosfären bra. Det gamla stoet var ett pittoreskt inslag på angränsande grönområde, men mer flug- än människocharmare. Annonsen nämnde visst vilda hästar, men dem såg vi inte röken av.

Cons:

Massor hungriga flugor kring maten. Döda flugor på övre våningarna. Vad andades vi in?? Hiss hade verkligen behövts. Frukosten var ganska trist. Sängarna var bekväma, men träramen runt om var bara ivägen. Toaletterna på källarplanet var fina, men handdukar saknades. Det saknades uppenbart en manager med överblick.

We enjoyed our visit and it was a good base to explore from. Staff and food were excellent. Room not
Pros:

The setting was beautiful in amongst the olive trees. The food is excellent. The breakfasts included many different things and changed daily. The restaurant in the evening produced delicious food and the chef should be commended.

Cons:

The room was smelly and austere. Concrete ceiling. No pictures (except a wall hanging). Very stark. Bed was not very comfy.

Pros:

Mierīga atmosfēra, dabas tuvums, izcilie ēdieni restorānā, svaigas zivis, jūras veltnes, mājas olīveļļa, mājas siers un daudz kas cits, maksimāli bagātīgas brokastis, ļoti viesmīlīgi. Skaista baseina zona pagalmā. Laba pastaigu taka olīvkoku dabas parkā, kurā var nonākt tieši no baseina atpūtas zonas. Brīvi pieejams parking tieši pie viesnīcas.
Apbraucu gandrīz visu valsti, šobrīd man šķiet, ka Mashtra The Olive House ir visvairāk zolida vieta visā Melnkalnē.

Cons:

Ja dodies uz Melnkalni, esi gatavs, tur mēķē daudzi, un smēķē visur. Citiem tas ir pluss, citiem mīnuss. Laba ziņa: Restorānā griestos aprīkota ventilācijas \ dūmu nosūcēja sistēma.
