21 Budget-Friendly Countries Where Luxury Experiences Don't Cost a Fortune
16. Montenegro: Adriatic Drama Without the Croatian Crowds

Experience the spectacular beauty of the Adriatic coast with fewer crowds and often lower prices than neighbouring Croatia. Montenegro's Bay of Kotor is fjord-like in its dramatic beauty, lined with charming medieval towns like Kotor and Perast. Stay in stylish boutique hotels or new luxury resorts emerging along the coast (like Porto Montenegro or Luštica Bay, which can offer relative value). Enjoy scenic drives, mountain hikes, and fresh seafood in stunning settings. It offers a taste of glamorous Mediterranean yachting life and coastal beauty for less.
