Getting there
Somewhat walkable
Places to stay are graded on a 0-100 scale. The higher the grade, the easier it is for travelers to find restaurants and things to do within walking distance.
When we first arrived, I was surprised at how small this hotel was. However, we received a very warm welcome and check in was quick.
Restaurant was closed because it is winter, but we found plenty of nearby places to eat.
Room was small, but very clean. Bed was very comfortable. The view from the room was amazing - we were right on the sea front. See attached photos.
Hotel is perfectly located for a short walk into Tivat and to the Port Montenegro, an amazing marina for super yachts. I can dream of winning the lottery still :)
Breakfast was great with a good choice of things to order. With occupancy being low, the cleaning staff just waited until you went for breakfast and then when you got back to your room it had already been cleaned.
All of the staff were very friendly and efficient. Always willing to help and give advice. Their English was perfect.
Only slight downside was that you were rationed to one cup of coffee for breakfast. If you wanted more then you had to pay.
However, i can strongly recommend this hotel.

We had the absolutely best time at this hotel. Everything was amazing. The air conditioning in the room was perfect, the bed was so comfortable with incredible pillows, and the shower was really spacious. Every room has a view of the water which was breathtaking. The private beach area for hotel guests was lovely and the water was so beautiful for swimming.
We stayed for four nights and dined in the restaurant every evening as the view was stunning and you are seated right on the water! The food was very high quality, highly recommend the beef cheeks and the tuna and my partner loved the octopus. Breakfast every morning was beautiful and I definitely recommend the pancakes.
All of the staff were so accommodating in both the hotel and the restaurant. When they realised it had been my birthday while we stayed, they brought up an amazing bottle of sparkling wine up to the room as a complimentary gift!
They were very helpful in letting us know about a bus to take a day trip to Kotor which helped us save money we would have spent on taxis. They also arranged airport transfers which were an additional cost but huge peace of mind.
We would definitely stay here again and can't recommend it enough!

We had a great stay. The natural light that wakes up every morning and reflects the sun on the houses has a warming effect on your heart on cold winter days. The rooms are comfortable, especially shampoo and cream smell very good. Especially the employees are friendly and interested. Many thanks to Nik, Marina and Vladan! The team is compatible and very friendly.

The hotel advertises a private beach area which is not the case at all (only the sunbeds are reserved for the clients). No calm and beach is full of people that are not staying at the hotel. Same for the parking, there is no specific parking lot for the hotel. Services corresponds to a 2 stars hotel. Missing toilet paper is put outside on the door handle. Cleaning is superficial. Be prepared to argue if you dare wish a second coffee at breakfast otherwise it will be additionally charged. Seasonal fruits were 1/4 banana , 4 5mm slices of apple and peach for 2 people in July. Again no refill possible. Nice view but doesn’t worth the price. By far our worst experience in Monténégro.

Dears, Thank you for taking the time to write a review about your short stay in our hotel. We are sorry to read that you have not been fully satisfied with your stay. Our beach is private for hotel guests, however, the sea is free for use by every citizen. It is like that in the whole country. It is peak season, so we are sorry that a lot of the guests bothered you. The breakfast is a la carte, and refilling is possible for sure. We have the highest scores for our breakfast, we are sorry that you did not enjoy it. Hopefully, we will have a chance to welcome you again and change your opinion. Best regards, Marina Cabarkapa

My friend and I stayed in Carrubba for 4 nights and we were amazed 1/ by the view, 2/ how sweet, respectful and super nice personnel was. The place is very peaceful and the view from the window just took our breath away right after we first entered our room. We felt calmed down and already relaxed from day one. They have a nice private beach right next to the hotel and Porto Montenegro with all the luxurious shops, restaurants and yacht club is just in a walking distance from the hotel too. Thank you Carrubba, I am definitely coming back.

Perfect and peaceful location, away from the crowds. Nice, clean and big rooms. Very friendly and helpful staff members. Having dinner at their waterfront restaurant is very romantic. Book one of the rooms with a big terrace on the first floor.

Very short overnight stay. Was beautifully decorated, comfortable room. Had cocktails late on the patio with spectacular view of the lake/bay. The location is an easy walk along the promenade from the port. Staff is kind. The hotel has a relaxing ambience.

Absolutely beautiful place with great location. It is impossible to be closer to the sea. With hotel beach and restaurant. Hotel and restaurant staff are very friendly. Room with terrace is the best deal, from my perspective.
Breakfast is great. Restaurant menu is not big but balanced.
Carrubba is the place of relax, views and taste.

This is a small beautiful hotel by the water. Staffs are very nice & well mannered! Room is neat & clean with specious comfortable bed. Check in & out experience was quick & smooth. Deck by the water is the best feature of this cosy comfortable hotel, we enjoyed breakfast on the deck with beautiful & quiet view. I would love to come back & definitely recommend hotel Carrubba.
