Encased in glass walls, the villa is bordered and enclosed by olive groves and palm bushes, allowing you to hide away in bliss. Located on the sublime islet of Sveti Stefan, you can drink in the natural beauty of the Budva Riviera whilst easily escaping to Galia beach and the local town of Sveti Stefan, where you can enjoy endless beaches, bars and restaurants. This villa is an unusual architectural feat, designed by the famous Italian architect Carlo Bandini. Eagle eyes will notice a mix of Italian and Montenegrin brands evoking luxury and elitism.

Once you make your way to the third floor, you’ll find the rooftop terrace. Surrender to the sunset with a cocktail and enjoy panoramic views of the entire Budva Riviera.
What Oliver loves...
This is an architects dream, concocted out of shapely squares, and yet not severe at all.
The glass windows make this a real treat. You can see it all from the moment you wake up to the moment you go to sleep. Yet the neighbouring trees still give you that important feeling of privacy.
Fancy cooking up a storm? You can whilst your guests sit and watch. This feels like a real family home.
You simply have to look at the property at night. All lit up, it truly is a sight.
What you should know
Make sure to take some cash with you, especially if venturing into the Old Town. Some cafes won’t accept card payments.

Situated along the seafront, Villa Jasna affords ultra-modern privacy and a taste of sleek elite suburbia. The most mesmerising aspect of the location is the views of the Adriatic Sea and the peppering of olive groves and palm bushes that flank the property. Located in the district of Sveti Stefan in the Budva Riviera, known for its seclusion and peacefulness, this is a beautiful place to enjoy private and uninterrupted time with loved ones in a supercharged home away from home. Despite its grandiosity, this property is designed with comfort in mind and furnished with all of the pleasantries of home. Let’s call it seclusion on steroids.
You can easily reach the soft pebble beach of Galia, and get to Sveti Stefan town after a one-minute drive. If you want to explore the local area, there are endless beaches, many bars and 5-star restaurants. As one of the most beautiful parts of Montenegro, Sveti Stefan is a remote island firmly placed in the 15th century, famous for its terracotta roofs that glint like rubies in the sun. Separated from the mainland by a long curve of sand, this feeling of being connected and secluded runs parallel, allowing you to pick and choose when you want to re-enter reality and wistfully wander into your own dream world. We recommend walking from Sveti Stefan to Budva, although its best to pick a cooler time of day. Locally there are plenty of churches, markets and sites of historical interest.
A quick trip into neighbouring Budva promises a livelier time, with bars, restaurants, water sports, a bustling marina, and a quaint old town all ready for exploring. Montenegro itself packs a historical punch for its small size, and there’s plenty to take in, from the old Roman Ruins to the subtle reminders of its pirate past. The Budva Walls is well worth a visit so that you can soak up some culture, and there are, of course many unique beaches to explore with pristine waters ideal for swimming and snorkelling. Milocher Park is well worth a visit as is Beach Galija. For those who want to embrace something new, you can also learn to dive in the area.
The Region
About Sveti Stefan & South Coast
The southern coast of Montenegro is largely made up of the Bar and Ulcinj Municipalities. This area is ideal for those who enjoy the lack of crowds and are in pursuit of a serener setting.
Sveti Stefan is probably the most likely image you will find on a Montenegrin postcard and with good reason too! With pink sandy beaches and delightful little shops, you will find yourself in a world of your own. Due to the seasonality of Sveti Stefan, its island gate is open to guests from May.
The South Coast –
Bar’s testing past is chronicled in its partially restored towns, which have seen a Turk invasion during the 19th Century and a severe earthquake in the late 70’s. Bar really is a treasure and efforts have been made to rebuild its old town and surrounding communes, which has given rise to one of our more peculiar, but captivating destinations.
The clearest way to understand the dichotomy of this area’s past is to pay a visit to Stari Bar. Firstly, you will be bewildered by the striking Mount Rumija that frames this beguiling town. A heavy presence of Ottoman architecture can be seen scattered amongst renovated structures, dilapidated buildings and relics. This image alone denotes the staggering degree of one town’s inauspicious history and lends a careful reminder to visitors of an era long-gone. More stately buildings have stood the test of time, so pay a visit to the Church of. St Jovan Vladimir (formerly the Patron Saint & Protector of Bar) and King Nikola’s Palace that now acts as the town’s museum. Perhaps one of the most inspiring feats of this town is Stara Maslina and its olive grove. This olive tree has remained in place for over two millennia and acts as a sign of fortitude for a prised town.
A short trip from Bar will land you on the doorstep of Skadar Lake and its National Park. This reserve encourages its guests to view exceptional indigenous wildlife, enjoy water sports & boat trips and taste the wines of Vinarija Bogojević & Cemovsko Field. A true marvel for those who get a kick from the outdoors!
South of both Bar and Skadar Lake, the town of Ulcinj is found bordering Albania. This is where the best beaches in this region can be found, which include Valdanos Beach and Velika Plaža & Mala Plaža. Here you will finally find some space to breathe! Unlike Budva, Ulcinj hasn’t quite been touched by the hordes of European tourists. The old town of Ulcinj stands proud as the oldest in Montenegro and with this comes a humbler style of life…people come here for good old-fashioned R&R! The town has a remarkable presence of farmer’s markets and street vendors, which tend to operate most days. What better way to start the morning than picking up some fresh & locally grown fruit? You will also be pleased to know that Ulcinj has a reputation for having the best gelato in Montenegro and the Adriatic coast, so don’t feel guilty upon your daily return visits! When the evening falls and you're craving something savoury, stroll along the Bojana River and you will find some of the more renowned restaurants in the area.
