Description
In Brief
A one-bedroom apartment in the Lavender Bay complex, Donji Morinj, with open bay views across to Perast and the mountains beyond. At 59m², the apartment has been fitted and furnished with considerably more care than most in this price range - a coherent coastal aesthetic running from entrance hallway through to bedroom. The private terrace is garden-scaled at approximately 34m², with outdoor dining and lounge furniture, and views to both the mountains and the bay. Complex facilities include an outdoor infinity pool with a direct Perast panorama, an indoor jacuzzi, and a sauna. Allocated parking included. Perast is 10 minutes away; Kotor within 25.
In Full
Set on the western shore of the Bay of Kotor above the village of Morinj, this one-bedroom apartment in the Lavender Bay complex looks directly across the water towards Perast and the mountain ridgeline beyond. The view is the headline, but it is not the only reason to pay attention.
The interior has been put together with a clear aesthetic sensibility - coastal and relaxed, referencing the setting without becoming generic. The entrance hallway opens with a large painted blue semicircle on the wall, a circular wooden pinboard carrying clipped photographs of Montenegrin scenes, and brass coat hooks. It sets a tone that holds throughout.
The main living space is open-plan, with large-format cream tiles underfoot and an L-shaped kitchen along one wall: white high-gloss cabinetry to ceiling height, under-cabinet strip lighting, integrated hob and oven, and a solid timber breakfast bar with two industrial-frame stools beneath twin rattan dome pendants. The living area is anchored by a grey sofa - which converts to a double sleeping configuration when needed - botanical cushions, and a wall-mounted acoustic guitar. The blue feature wall carries the TV and small decorative details that continue the bay theme. Full-width sliding doors open directly onto the terrace.
The terrace is the apartment's most underappreciated asset. At approximately 34m² it functions as a proper outdoor room - rattan dining table and chairs on one side, a corner sofa with blue and white botanical cushions on the other, Mediterranean planting providing natural screening along the rear border, and a lawn-level garden area below. The views take in both the mountain wall directly above the village and, from the bay-facing edge, the water and Perast beyond.
The bedroom is set back on the quieter side of the apartment. Herringbone parquet flooring, a dark navy bedhead panel, crossed wooden oars on the wall above - the nautical reference is specific and deliberate. A window bench with storage sits beneath the louvred green shutters; the aspect is towards the mountains. A small gallery of Montenegrin bay prints and a starfish on driftwood continue the same thread. The bathroom has a full bath with overhead shower, taupe wall tiles, and a vertical mosaic strip in green and gold tones as the single decorative element. A separate utility area off the bathroom houses a washing machine, wall-mounted water heater, iron, ironing board, and drying rack - practical detail that is often absent at this price point.
The Lavender Bay complex adds genuine value at this price point. The outdoor infinity pool is one of the better-positioned on the entire bay - its edge dissolves into a direct view of Perast and the enclosing mountain ridgeline. The indoor jacuzzi is set within a curved glass spa room; there is also a timber-lined sauna and a children's playground. An allocated private parking space is included with the apartment.
The apartment is sold fully furnished as seen. It works as an owner-occupier base, a lock-up-and-leave seasonal property, or a short-term rental investment - the Airbnb track record at 4.88 from 49 reviews suggests the latter is well-proven.
What Sets It Apart
Most one-bedroom apartments at this price point on the western shore deliver either a reasonable view or a usable interior - rarely both, and rarely with a terrace large enough to function as a second living room. The 30m² outdoor space here, the quality of the interior fit-out, and the complex facilities place this comfortably above the standard offer for the area. The Airbnb track record at 4.88 from 49 reviews is not an accident - it reflects a property that photographs well, lives well, and keeps guests coming back.
Buyer Lens
Well suited to a buyer looking for a proven rental investment, a well-appointed seasonal base, or a first step into the Morinj market. Less suited to someone needing year-round urban walkability - a car is necessary here, though the village covers the basics on foot.
Local Amenities
Morinj is a small, quiet village on the western shore of the inner bay - residential in character, unhurried in pace, and well enough placed that daily life works without constant recourse to a car. The E65 coastal road runs through it, and the village centre is a short walk with a market, a post office, and several places to eat and drink directly on the water.

- City Market - daily groceries

Agent's Honest Take
The western shore suits buyers who want the bay on their own terms - the view without the crowds, the quiet without the isolation. This apartment has the position, the interior quality, and the rental track record to justify serious consideration at its price point. A car is needed for daily life; the village handles the rest. For a buyer who wants the bay without the noise of it, and a property that has clearly been looked after, this is a straightforward option.
