Hyatt Regency Kotor Bay Resort is undergoing a multimillion-euro property addition, a development aimed at enhancing the MICE offerings and attracting a larger variety of events and conferences not only to Kotor Bay but to Montenegro and the region as a whole. The new addition will expand the regional portfolio as one of the largest conference spaces in the Bay, changing the hospitality landscape and complementing the strategy of expanding the resort services and capturing a wider range of guests and companies.
With the three existing event and meeting spaces spanning over 300 square meters, the new ballroom and event space will boost the capacity with an additional 610 square meters, available as a whole or divided into two event halls measuring 280 square meters and 230 square meters, allowing for banquet events of up to 480 people, and double that in a cocktail reception setting. The spectacular modern and multifunctional addition will be able to accommodate a versatile array of events, from weddings and conferences, team buildings and seminars, ceremonies and parties, product launches and fashion shows, to fundraisers and diplomatic and corporate receptions.
The new conference hall features a high ceiling, a modern nature-inspired design with large windows allowing ample natural light and unsurpassed views of the Bay’s striking mountains and the pool plateau and terrace. Incorporated into the new development and its facilities, the new Ballroom Lobby Lounge can serve as a pre-event area perfect for registrations and bilateral impromptus, or as a gift room or photo-op area.
The resort itself, located on a three-hectare beachfront property, provides access to the region’s top beaches and trendy scenes, natural and manmade Montenegro highlights, and the cities of Kotor and Tivat. Getting to the complex is possible by boat and yacht with the hotel’s own docking marina, easily accessible by road from other countries in the region, and by air with a short and scenic drive along the Bay upon touchdown, with the complex located only 13 km from the Tivat International Airport.
The resort, featuring 252 suites and bedrooms, ensures flexibility for operators and event organizers to easily manage their events and seamlessly organize programs using the existing hotel facilities. The well-being and conference resort features six restaurants and bars with indoor and outdoor spaces, pool and beach plateaus, spa and wellness facilities, and health and well-being facilities with outdoor and indoor pools to accommodate the most complex schedules and visions of a perfect event regardless of the season. The overall objective of the resort is to cater to and accommodate both intimate celebrations and large gatherings across an array of indoor and outdoor venues and spaces, supported by professional teams ready to respond to and surpass any gourmet cuisine ideas, service requirements, and design visualization expectations.
With the elevation of Montenegro as a vacation and business destination, ease of access by road and by water, and the increase in incoming flights from across Europe and beyond, the strategic development was envisioned as a key element in positioning the resort and its accompanying complex as market leaders in the region, offering an array of superior services and modern facilities while keeping the charm of the natural surroundings intact.
