When I first arrived at Siro Boka Place, Montenegro’s newest wellness-focused hotel, I had high expectations.

Nestled within Porto Montenegro, the country’s most prestigious waterfront development, the hotel promised a fusion of luxury, fitness, and relaxation.

What I found was an experience that went beyond a typical coastal retreat – it was immersive, rejuvenating, and surprisingly transformative.

First Impressions & Atmosphere

From the moment I stepped into the sleek, modern lobby, I could sense that Siro Boka Place was designed for movement and mindfulness. Unlike traditional hotels, where grand chandeliers and plush interiors dominate, this space felt fresh, airy, and intentional. The neutral tones, natural materials, and gentle lighting created an immediate feeling of calm but energised focus – a balance that carried throughout my stay.

My Room: Designed for Wellness

I stayed in a Boka Bay-facing suite, a room that felt more like a personal wellness studio than a standard hotel space. Floor-to-ceiling windows flooded the room with natural light, offering stunning views of the shimmering Adriatic coastline. A private balcony gave me the perfect spot to enjoy my morning coffee while watching yachts glide across the bay.

The bed was like sleeping on a cloud, outfitted with high-thread-count sheets and plush pillows. Thoughtfully placed smart lighting adjusted to circadian rhythms, ensuring a peaceful sleep. The bathroom, sleek and minimal, included a rainfall shower, organic toiletries, and heated flooring – details that made unwinding feel effortless.

But what truly set the experience apart was the in-room wellness amenities. A yoga mat, foam roller, and small weights were provided for in-room workouts, while a hydration station encouraged a focus on wellness from the moment I arrived.

Dining: A Nutrition-Focused Affair

Siro Boka Place takes healthy living seriously, and that’s evident in the dining options. Siro Table, the hotel’s signature restaurant, blends locally sourced ingredients with mindful nutrition. Every meal felt like it had been carefully curated to nourish, rather than just satisfy cravings – from protein-packed breakfasts to fresh seafood dishes with Mediterranean flair.

For something more casual, Siro Social offered on-the-go meals perfect for a quick bite before heading out for a cycling tour or kayaking excursion.

Spa & Recovery: The Ultimate Reset

One of my favourite aspects of my stay was the Recovery Lab – a wellness hub where I could ease muscle tension with cryotherapy, soak in infrared heat, or book a deep-tissue massage. After a long day of exploring, these treatments felt like the perfect antidote to Montenegro’s rugged terrain.

The Fitness Lab was equally impressive, offering group classes, personal training sessions, and recovery-focused stretching areas. It wasn’t just a gym – it was a space designed for holistic movement, tailored for both beginners and elite athletes alike.

Exploring Beyond the Hotel

Siro Boka Place is ideally located for adventurers and wellness seekers alike. Just a short distance away is the UNESCO-listed town of Kotor, where cobbled streets and medieval architecture make for the perfect afternoon exploration. The Blue Cave – accessible by boat – is a surreal natural wonder, glowing with an ethereal blue light that makes swimming there feel otherworldly.

For those looking to embrace Montenegro’s untouched landscapes, hiking trails around Lustica Peninsula offer breath taking views and quiet solitude. The hotel even arranges guided cycling and trekking experiences, making it easy to pair movement with adventure.

Final Thoughts: More Than Just a Stay

Siro Boka Place is more than just another luxury hotel – it’s an active, immersive wellness escape. Every detail, from the sleep-enhancing rooms to the curated nutrition, is designed to make guests feel better, move better, and unwind with intention. Whether you’re seeking a reset, a high-energy workout, or simply a peaceful retreat by the sea, this hotel delivers an experience that leaves you healthier than when you arrived.
