Fabulous holiday. We were lucky to have had the best guide, Ozzy. Due to the weather being a bit poor he swapped the itinerary around so we could fit things in. The white water rafting was the highlight of the holiday for us! Great fun! The food was so tasty and we were never left hungry! Would definitely recommend this trip!! Don't pack any smart clothes! You won't need them!!

Very enjoyable painting holiday. Excellent food. I needed some assistance and this was always given promptly with tact.

Montenegro is a great destination if you like wildlife, and Villa Miela is a brilliant place to stay close to the Lake Skadar and in the National Park. The host Emma is amazingly knowledgeable about all the birds, animals and wildflowers to be seen in abundance in May. The accommodation was very comfortable and the cooking by Elaine was delicious (we were on a painting retreat so the catering was included). So many beautiful scenes to paint, and wonderful places to visit. I can't recommend it highly enough. Take something warm for the evenings in May, and sturdy footwear for the climbs. It is a mountainous area and footpaths are sometimes rough. Emma also speaks fluent Montenegrin so can help with any minor problems. All is done to help the environment and sustainability in this lovely area. Definitely worth giving it a go!

A fantastic week in Southern Albania - astounding scenery, friendly, welcoming people and delicious food. Undiscovered Montenegro really know how to find the best places to show you the heart and soul of a country - uncrowded, off the beaten track, staying in beautiful local guesthouses, eating at small restaurants and in people's homes! And accompanied by our amazing guide, Alfie, who gave us a constant commentary on the history, culture and lifestyle of the country he so obviously loves (as well as looking after us and sorting everything out!). Highly recommended - we'll be back!

Really amazing holiday! We were hosted by Ben alongside the new management team, Sophie and Will. They made the holiday so special and unique to us. For us it was the perfect combination of different activities mixed in with some rest days that allowed us to explore the country at our own leisure. Ben and Nikola led the tours and were very knowledgeable on the area and history of the country and landscape. Sophie and Will were very attentive to our needs back at Villa Miela and assisted with everything we needed. Overall an all round 10/10 holiday and have already started looking at coming back and doing another one in future!

Absolutely brilliant from start to finish! This holiday truly pushed me way outside my comfort zone—in the best possible way. The scenery in Montenegro is nothing short of breathtaking, and every day was packed with unforgettable experiences.We kayaked 7 miles across the stunning Lake Skadar, followed by a 9-mile paddleboarding tour that was as challenging as it was rewarding. The 6.5-mile hike took us over the rockiest, steepest terrain I’ve ever tackled—an achievement I’ll never forget. Exploring the bat cave and swimming in the freezing, yet refreshing, waters beneath a waterfall added even more adventure to an already epic trip.The villa was absolutely beautiful, with views that were simply out of this world. Huge thanks to Ben and Emma at Undiscovered Montenegro—you’ve created something truly special. Your passion and attention to detail shine through, and you completely deserve all the 5-star reviews.A massive shout-out as well to Sophie, Will, and Nikola. You were all first class in looking after us, and your warmth and professionalism made the whole experience even more memorable.Without a doubt, a 5-star adventure holiday. I’ll be recommending this to everyone I know!

We had a brilliant week at Villa Miela - 2 adults and our three boys (10, 12 and 14). The group was lovely and we were lucky to coincide with Ben and Emma and their family, who shared their expertise and love of the area with us (and their cheerful approach to life!). Some of the things we loved: - kayaking on the beautiful lake, spotting pelicans and counting tortoises on the island stop-offs; - spotting lizards, toads, frogs, snakes and even a salamander; - the amazing sound of the frogs on the lake right by Virpazar; - thoughtful touches organised by Ben and Emma, like toasting marshmallows around a campfire, an Easter egg hunt and lifts to the village shop for supplies; - relaxing on the yoga deck or on the terrace at the villa and taking a quick dip in the pool; - hiking in varied environments (villages, rocky hillsides, almost tropical-like landscapes) with stunning views; - enjoying the amazing bird life, including eagles; - wild swimming in natural pools; - visiting a dramatic cave; - wine tasting with the winemaker in a local village; - enjoying a generous meal of local food after a hike to a beautiful village; - excellent ebike tour of Podgorica with Nikola (on a free day); - chatting to our lovely fellow guests, as well as Ben and Emma and family. We would definitely recommend this trip to others. April suited us well - some rain (not enough to disrupt activities) but plenty of sun and not too hot.

We have just returned from an amazing week of adventure in Montenegro. Villa Miela is set in a beautiful and peaceful location with breathtaking views over the valley below towards Lake Skadar. The villa had all we could need and lots of lovely extras. They are able to cater for all dietary needs; we had both an allergy, and a vegan in the group.Ben and Emma were very friendly and really helpful, catering for all of the groups needs. They were incredibly knowledgeable about both the area, the wildlife and the best 'undiscovered' places to visit.We had the pleasure of visiting a local family for a delicious meal, set on a veranda overlooking the small village.My favourite day of the tour was Kayaking, seeing the nesting Pelican's and Grey Herons before heading for a picnic on a Monastery island, counting the wild tortoise's on the way to it's summit.
