Iberostar Waves Bellevue

The hotel has pools but is also on the beach. We went 1-10 July and could always get sunbeds at any time of day in the sun or shade. The beach sunbeds have a fee (€20 for two plus parasol) so we just went swimming in the sea then used the free sunbeds near the pool. Food excellent. There are two large buffet restaurants plus a snack bar with pasta, pizza, etc. The rooms were good with balcony. We were in block A which we paid more for but was worth it to be away from the stage area which is noisy at night because of the entertainment. I would like to give 10/10 to the housekeeping staff who are friendly and do an amazing job, well done. I would stay here again for sure.

Hotel is in a great location very clean great restaurants/ food / swimming pools , accommodation was lovely and clean.. lots of bars in the hotel .. had a great holiday … negatives….. hotel should not allow people to reserve sunbeds with towels during the day as people were hogging sunbeds, which were not being used for hours on end whilst others struggled to find anywhere to sit by the pool .. ( by 0700am most beds were covered in towels !) in terms of sustainability, I don’t believe the restaurant should lay cutlery at the table as most days we only used one knife and fork out of a setting of 6/7 pieces that’s a lot of unused cutlery to wash up for each table if not being used .. should be help yourself to cutlery .. … the evening entertainment was quite poor… and also very cramped with limited seating … so we gave up most nights and went to bed early or went out of the hotel … the hotel charge to use the sunbeds on the beach which I thought was unfair at €15 per bed that’s quite steep .. as an all-inclusive result it should really have been included…. I would like to point out that we did have a lovely holiday despite the negative points above and I would stay at this hotel again if they improve on the above .

The hotel is very popular. Lots of entertainment for adults and children. Food & drink was good and in plentiful supply. Very busy though in the summer if you are not into crowds.

Hotel is pretty average, food is nice. Something I wish I’d known before coming - getting a bed by the pool is almost impossible. I’ve never experienced this before we started coming down at 7am when the pool supposedly opened to grab a bed but EVERY SINGLE BED was taken. Not just around the pool even all the beds on the grass surrounding it. People are getting up at 4-5am jumping the chain when it’s closed and leaving towels etc to hold the beds, and what’s worse is these people then don’t come down until after 12pm sometimes. No staff say anything. It’s not fair on other guests. Lots of unfriendly Europeans staying here- very rude, big attitudes, no consideration of others. So if you’re someone who likes to chill by the pool consider this! The beach isn’t great and you have to pay for beds there too. It seems the hotel has been expanded over the years but yet they haven’t added pools, it’s one adult pool for ALOT of people so sometimes there’s not even space to get in the pool (at the hottest parts of the day when you need it). No kettles in the rooms either which is odd, but worth noting if you like tea!

The cleanliness of the hotel was very poor, we found a cockroach in our bathroom and we also had bedbugs. We were completely covered in bedbug bites. The hotel needs better cleaning services and needs a full inspection.

This is a great hotel. The staff are so friendly and helpful and the place is spotlessly clean. The food is excellent, a good selection and meat dishes are so tender. I have never been to a hotel where the restaurant staff clear your plates and empty tables so quickly to keep the restaurant looking clean and tidy. The pool is lovely and there are lots of sun beds by the pool and on the surrounding on the grassed areas. It's about a 7 euro cab or a 30 minute walk to the old town which is beautiful. We went most nights - we took a cab there and walked back. I think the cabs back charge at least double. The only negative is the aircon. They do have it but when it's in the 90s it's needs to be a bit colder. Reception gave us a fan also which did help though so it wasn’t a major issue. We had the most amazing hammam which also included a full body massage. It was fantastic. My husband said it was the best massage he had ever had and we’ve had a lot as we’re in our 50s. Definitely take a trip to Kotor. It is the most beautiful bays l've seen and I am fairly well travelled. We took a boat trip from Kotor to Perast and the views leaving the harbour were amazing. We got a taxi from the hotel for 50 euros and then got the bus back for 8 euros each. We could have got a taxi back for 60 euros but as we were right by the bus station we decided not to. Only downside to this is the bus drops you in Budva about a 20 minute walk back to the hotel which was fine for us.

Nearly didn’t write a review and to be honest our stay was pleasant enough. Hotel was nice, sun-bed situation around the pool was ridiculous, couldn’t understand why there are tennis courts and a basketball court just next to the beach, and not extra pools…..however, the reason I didn’t give extra stars was because of the buffet. I’m vegan and although it was great that everything was labelled, the labelling in nearly all cases was wrong, and frankly could have been dangerous for people with allergies, for example a pasta dish labelled as vegan, but was covered in cream, a paella labelled vegan had milk in it when I asked, a dessert labelled vegan, was confirmed as not vegan by a member of staff. Because I could not trust the labels I hardly ate anything except a bit of fruit and salad for the three days we were there. Luckily I don’t have severe allergies but I know people who do, and frankly if labelling is incorrect, it could potentially kill someone. Do better.

We had an absolutely fantastic stay at this hotel! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome and were always friendly, professional, and ready to help. The animation team was outstanding and provided a wide variety of activities every day, making sure both children and adults had a great time. The rooms were spotless, spacious, and cleaned thoroughly every day. The entire hotel was very well maintained, creating a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere throughout our stay. The location is excellent, and the overall value for money exceeded our expectations. We traveled from Bosnia and Herzegovina to Montenegro and the journey was definitely worth it. Everything was organized perfectly, and we created wonderful memories here. We would gladly return in the future and highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a fun, relaxing, and memorable vacation. Thank you to the entire team for making our stay so special! If there is one thing I would especially like to praise, it is the animation team. They went above and beyond to make every guest feel welcome and involved. Their positive energy, professionalism, and engaging activities made a huge difference and turned a great holiday into an unforgettable experience. The hotel was generally quiet and peaceful. Even with the daily activities and entertainment, the atmosphere remained relaxing, and we had no problems resting or sleeping. We were very satisfied with the amenities provided. The hotel had everything we needed for a comfortable and enjoyable stay, so we didn’t feel that anything was missing.

amazing food service .. Head chef specially took care of us even when we were fasting .. took care of us as we all 22 people are vegetarian.. so so happy to come & stay here

Just returned from a 11 night stay in the Bellevue, what a wonderful hotel, we have never been to such a pretty hotel with stunning grounds. (the internet pictures are accurate). The staff were amazing, all of them but the ones who I can remember were, Trifan,magdelena, Andrea,Darko, and Milosh, also Bogdan one of the entertainment who knew everything about all football teams....The food in the restaurant was excellent and we were really spoilt for choice most nights. For a large hotel we never waited long for bar service .....bonus as the weather got very hot early June. The evening entertainment was a bit hit and miss, the Rock band were excellent, but the rest was not my choice, but it was ok......The walk along the beach road to Budva (through the tunnel) was very pretty with plenty of bars and restaurants....going the opposite way to Raffiolavichi was also a very enjoyable pretty walk. We were in block 3, which is the oldest block (dont think it has been re-furbed like the other 2 blocks), but it was fine for us, very spacious and clean (the cleaning staff were excellent as well)... Wonderful holiday and we will return..... Footnote: read about Tivat airport it is like going back in time, one word describes it CHAOS......it was that bad people were laughing.......It will not deter us from returning to Iberostar Bellvue Waves. Colin and Janice Rogers.

Our first visit to montenegro, as soon as we got to the hotel we were greeted with smiling faces, quick check in and given our wristbands and guided to our room , room was a little small for a family but adequate, our balcony overlooked the evening entertaining area which wasn't ideal with a 7 year old as music was loud until late, the hotel staff did evening entertaining most nights and did a fantastic effort doing this, food here was good, I have had better all inclusive choices in other countries we have been but still plenty of selection, hotel has great pool areas and we never had problems getting a sun lounger, also easy access to the beach but you will have to pay for sun lounger here, we just took couple of towels and sat on the sand, also a bar down at the beach which was great as nice to sit in evening, overall the hotel is great, staff work extremely hard and all very helpful, we will certainly be back to stay.

This was our first time visiting Montenegro and we were very happy with the location of the hotel (Becici (make sure that you see the sea front and go for a walk along the promenade. It is stunning)). We got a hire car which I would highly recommend as they are low-cost, the roads are in really good condition but beware of the drivers as they are more aggressive than people make out. Make sure that you just go at your own pace. We would recommend that you get an automatic car and paying no attention to the aggressive locals! The car parking at the hotel was incredible. Really friendly staff on reception especially Stojan! We didn't spend loads of time in the hotel. We probably only sat by the pool 3 days out of the 10 because we wanted to explore Montenegro. We would recommend lovcen, lake skadar, pavlova Strana, virpazar, durmitor national Park, budva old town and petrovac. The main restaurant is incredible and the views are what make it! We also really liked the snack bar - incredible pizzas and the cocktails are really good. The breakfast is great. It's the best eggs that we've had in an all-inclusive as they are made fresh to order. The staff weren't always the friendliest but they were all good at their jobs. The evening entertainment starts at 9:30 p.m. which was quite late for us so we requested a quiet room which was in block 2. There are three blocks in the hotel with the noisiest block being block one. The hotel restaurant is in block 3 and the quietest block is block 2. The room had everything that you need. It didn't have any coffee facilities in the room but this was okay as you could get coffees and teas in the all-inclusive in the hotel restaurants. Our biggest issue with the hotel was the shower in the room. It would go from scolding hot to freezing cold within seconds which was very unpleasant. It is also a very very slippery shower, so be careful! The views from the hotel are amazing. Probably the best that we've seen on any of our holidays. There are two main restaurants but both serve the same food and then there is a snack bar and a hotel shop which had quite a poor selection. If you are going to this hotel, make sure that you bring your own full first aid kit, I fell over running on the first day and they did not have a first aid kit in the hotel to help patch me up. Luckily we had our own plasters but they weren't able to offer us anything else. The gym is great, really well equipped and very clean. You can ask at the reception in block one on the same floor as the gym to get early access before 9:00 a.m. and they'll let you in. Overall, we had a great experience at the hotel. We were very well looked after, but we have had better experiences in other hotels in Europe. Definitely make sure that you check out the budva Old Town especially Citadela - it's incredible!!

Iberostar Waves Bellevue exceeded my expectations for a 4-star hotel. The location is excellent, with direct beach access, and there is food available until late at night, which is especially convenient for families with young children or anyone who enjoys having snacks later in the evening. The entertainment team deserves special recognition for their enthusiasm and dedication, offering engaging activities for both children and adults. Considering the very competitive price, this hotel is an excellent choice for those looking to relax, enjoy the sun, and spend quality time with their family. One thing worth noting is that the hotel is quite far from the airport, as are most of the better resorts in the area, so I would recommend arranging a transfer in advance. I did experience a few minor issues that do not affect my overall positive rating. For example, the reception staff seemed inexperienced and were unable to provide basic information. When I asked about the difference between the two restaurants, I received two different answers from two different employees. In the end, I had to figure it out myself: there was essentially no difference, except that one restaurant served lunch while the other served dinner. Overall, the positives far outweigh the negatives, and I would gladly stay here again.

I spent a wonderful week at the IBEROSTAR Waves Bellevue hotel. The food was delicious and varied, with plenty of choices every day. The hotel staff were friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help. The rooms were comfortable, cozy, and very clean. The hotel has an excellent location right by the sea. There is a beautiful seaside promenade leading towards Bečići. Budva can be reached either by bus or on foot along the coast, which is a pleasant walk with lovely views. The hotel grounds are clean, well-maintained, and attractive. During the hottest part of the day, it is nice to relax in the garden under the olive trees. There are various activities by the pool during the day, and live entertainment and concerts in the evenings. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone who wants to enjoy a relaxing holiday and return home with wonderful memories.

We have just finished a short 5 day break here as a group of 11 friends and we each found this hotel nice in many ways, from its location, to food, to rooms and staff. The food was all tasty, a little repetitive, but nice. Staff were friendly, room was absolutely fine for 3 people to each room and pools/beach bar was lovely. Only thing we did find disappointing, was the cocktails - all come from a machine and not freshly made - each are very very sweet. Location was great - €7 into old town Budva, but make sure you book your taxis through the hotel as we caught our own taxi back to the hotel and was charged €25 for a €7 journey that we paid on the way out. Overall we each said we would return, so thank you to the staff again.
