Iberostar Waves Herceg Novi

Really good holiday and Adam and omar were so friendly and really looked after us! They are the best ever. The food, room and staff was also amazing! I really recommend. Definitely not the last time!!

We have just returned from a week at this lovely hotel and overall had a fantastic, relaxing holiday. The location is absolutely stunning. The views are breathtaking, with crystal-clear waters and mountains in the background. It's a truly beautiful setting and one of the highlights of our stay. The rooms were modern, clean and comfortable, and it was a nice touch having a coffee machine in the room, although we didn't make use of it. One thing worth mentioning is that the number of steps around the resort is probably a little underrated in some of the descriptions. Even if you're reasonably mobile, the heat can make them challenging, and I did see a few people struggling. It's definitely something to consider before booking. The entertainment team were fantastic – friendly, enthusiastic and always working hard to create fun activities for guests. It was nice to see options beyond the usual daytime activities, such as the casino night, which we hadn't experienced before. There was a real focus on keeping children entertained too. The taxi boat across the bay was excellent and, at €15 return per person, I thought it offered good value for money. We also booked a boat trip to Kotor through the excursion representative by the pool, which was very enjoyable and well worth doing. I'd read several reviews saying the food was repetitive, and that's probably a fair comment. However, as a vegetarian, this was the first hotel where I've had options such as soya-based meat dishes and even a vegan burger one evening, which was a really pleasant surprise. The bars were great and all the staff were incredibly friendly. A special mention to the lovely lady working in the bar underneath the restaurant – unfortunately I can't remember her name, but she was always so warm and welcoming. Overall, we had a wonderful holiday. Beautiful scenery, friendly staff, nice food and a very relaxing atmosphere. My only advice would be to make sure you're aware of the number of steps throughout the resort before you travel.

Everything was great! Room, stuff, food! 💚 We will come back definitely!

Very enjoyable stay at Iberostar Waves in Herceg Novi from start to finish. Check in was very straight forward and reception staff during our stay were exceptionally helpful, even letting us check in early. Room was of a very high standard, fast wi fi, great views and house keeper/cleaner kept room exceptionally clean. Restaurant was very well organized and staff there were so hard working and friendly. Food was of a very high standard for all meals, especially enjoyed the Montenegrin cuisine evening. The main pool area has the most incredible views of bay of Kotor, lovely pool and a bar area serving a variety of drinks. There is also a roof top bar with again, incredible views and friendly staff . The beach is beautiful and clean and includes a snack bar with good food and drinks available. All the staff we spoke to were exceptionally friendly and helpful and made our stay really enjoyable , names we remember are Tatjana and Gordana on reception, Omar and Mickey , very friendly and always willing to help, Aldo, Yanko and Zvonko, great bar staff and Tatjana in the coffee shop, all brilliant. Thank you for making our stay so enjoyable and hope to stay again in the future at this amazing hotel.

As other reviews have stated the views and location are stunning. The beautiful bay of Kotor and watching the sun set each evening was glorious. The hotel is set on the hillside and again, as others have stated, it is very steep. We stayed in Luna which was nearest the pool, restaurant and beach but still required walking up and down lots of steps. Luna it should be noted is identical to other blocks but more expensive due to its location. Room was basic, no frills, there’s a coffee pod machine (the housekeeping kept forgetting to replenish the pods). It’s extra money to use the safe. The shower drainage was dire and had to complain twice to sort it out. My friend had no towel replenishment in her room and had to keep asking reception to deliver after returning in the afternoon to find housekeeping had serviced the room and taken all the towels! We asked for a kettle for the room which arrived but no way of getting milk for the room other than a cup from the restaurant. Food was fine. Sun loungers have one setting and are very uncomfortable. Bit of hogging by the guests with towels put down to reserve beds before breakfast but hotel wasn’t full so didn’t bother us.The lady by the pool selling the day trips is lovely and we booked the trip to Kotor through her which is very reasonable and we had a lovely day. The hotel is very remote - the town is boat ride or taxi away - not really walkable to it’s a good hotel for a complete break!
