Montenegro's Budva Riviera reveals a split personality, with a lovely Old Town section and a bevy of newly constructed accommodations. Owning a history that reaches back into the 5th Century BC, the town was once a marketplace frequented by Greek seafarers. Today, casual outdoor cafes and restaurants line those same streets, with a few nightclubs thrown in for good measure, making it a happy retreat for those on holiday. Numerous pebble and sand beaches, along with a very nice Mediterranean climate, make Budva especially attractive as a winter escape.
