Awesome house! So much attention has been paid to interior details – a fireplace, a terrace, and all this in a quiet picturesque village. Victoria is an amazing, responsive woman; we are very grateful for her hospitality!
Casa Austria
A Home Above the Rooftops
On the edge of Mrkovi, as part of Casa Austria, the small tower rises above the Luštica landscape.
The name says it all: originally intended as our own residence, this apartment was created with a distinctive character. We travel to Montenegro regularly with our dogs and had actually planned to keep this place just for ourselves.
After Casa Austria was used for filming, we decided to open the tower apartment to our guests as well. The apartment spans two levels of 24 m² each and feels wonderfully spacious thanks to its layout.
A private staircase leads to the rooftop terrace, framed by stone walls reminiscent of a small fortress, offering sweeping views of the sea and the surrounding mountains.
Two parking spaces are located directly in front of the entrance.
The master apartment in the tower accommodates two guests and offers everything needed for a comfortable stay across its two levels.
On the lower floor, you’ll find a fully equipped kitchen with all essential appliances. The bathroom is modern and functional. The living and sleeping area is located on the upper level.
Amenities include Wi-Fi, satellite TV, air conditioning, and a washing machine — ideal for longer stays. The rooms are bright and open, combining the tower’s original character with contemporary comfort.
The apartment is adjacent to Casa Austria and can be directly connected when desired and available — creating space for up to six guests.

Here, where stone walls meet the sea and the wind moves through the olive trees, we found our favorite place. A piece of Montenegro – genuine and untouched.
What began as an adventure became a heartfelt mission: to preserve old stone houses and bring them back to life. Today, we share this idyllic place with people who seek tranquility, nature, and something truly special.
How It All Began
In 2008, through a Montenegrin acquaintance, we discovered this part of Montenegro – and immediately fell in love with its landscape, its serenity, its quiet charm, and its old stone houses. Many of them stood abandoned, yet we saw in them both possibilities and stories waiting to be told.
House Tici was our first experiment as a “convertible house” – a structure with standing walls but without a roof. That’s what we call these kinds of buildings: convertible houses. Over the course of three years, we rebuilt the house in Tici with patience, dedication, and a deep attention to detail.
This is how our first home came to life – one that preserves tradition and the humble beauty of true craftsmanship.
More Than Just a House
Today, House Tici looks different. It now features an inner courtyard and a front garden with trees that offer welcome shade.
After this first experience, we restored another house in Mrkovi – once again preserving its original character while adding modern technology and comfort.
In 2014, we opened both houses to guests – and ever since, every summer has become part of a shared story.
Today
Our little haven now includes four houses, each with its own story to tell – of ancient stone, southern light, and the joy of creating a home for guests far from everyday life.
Living on Luštica
The Luštica Peninsula has remained wonderfully authentic. There is no central water supply – water comes from cisterns filled by the rain. Drinking water is purchased in canisters. Here, you live with nature, following its rhythm.
And perhaps that is exactly what makes this place so special.
The blue of the sea and the green slopes of Luštica create a landscape full of calm, openness, and Mediterranean ease.
Within just a few minutes, you can reach the bays of Žanjice and Mirište, the small fishing village of Rose, and viewpoints overlooking the Bay of Kotor. The towns of Tivat, Kotor, and Budva are easily accessible by car – vibrant contrasts to the tranquility of the peninsula.
