This is the perfect combination of Montenegrin tradition and modern amenities. This farm stay winery offers an ideal get-away.
BOOK NOW! Due to limited availability at this property for 2019, check out Prevalis Nature Cottage. Completed in May 2019, this deluxe cottage setting is adjacent to Cermeniza and has been built as a nature escape on a family micro winery.
This eco vineyard resort offers up 4 traditional style villas with a swimming pool and free parking for guests. Each villa includes a full kitchen and private bathroom. On the estate, tourists can enjoy the two-hundred-year-old wine cellar.
Guests will experience the unique wine culture through a tour of the centuries-old vineyards. Nemanja and his grandfather will share from the family knowledge and stories about the vineyards and fine wines. With the family wine, guests have the option to taste the domestic foods prepared by the family: goat cheese, prosciutto, olives and marinated lake carp–a specialty that is only available in Montenegro. During a guest’s stay, the family will organize various tours out on the lake, to the old Montenegrin villages, and a ride through the 100-year-old roads from Skadar Lake to the sea shores and medieval coastal towns.
The villas at Cermeniza offer an ideal location on Skadar Lake. Just 20 km away from the Podgorica airport, the property is also only 20 minutes from Bar, the nearest city on the coast, making it easy to spend time on any of a number of beaches. Another nearby feature is one of Meanderbug’s top 5 roads in Montenegro for scenic views. Finally, the heart of Virpazar, the central lakeside town, is only 1.4 km away. The Cermeniza location offers an ideal base for visiting all the beauties of Skadar Lake as well as for exploring other amazing parts of Montenegro.
