About Tivat and Gosici
Located in the central part of Boka bay, in the middle ages Tivat was a summer resort of Kotor nobility. Family churches and palaces from this time are still in use - such as the Buce (pronounced Buche) palace which was built in 1548 and is host to many cultural events today. As a town Tivat started developing in the late 19th century with the establishment of navy port Arsenal. In 2006 the port was purchased by PM Securities, a Canadian investment firm led by Peter Munk, who is investing $500 million in the building of a luxury marina and a resort complex. This is just one of several long term projects that give the properties within Tivat municipality their very significant rental and capital appreciation potential. The town has a lot of attractive destinations: renaissance buildings, the Flower Island resort, sacred monuments, the magnificent beach at Blue Horizons (5 min drive from Villa Bellavista) and St Nicholas island. There is a good choice of cultural events throughout the year. Tivat has its own international airport and is well connected by road with the rest of Montenegro.
Our village Gosici belongs to the municipality of Tivat and is 15 minute drive from the town centre. The villa faces the church of St Luke and the Island of Our Lady of Mercy. St Luke's church is on the hill where there used to be an ancient Illyrian edifice. Today's church dates back to the mid XIV century when it was a Benedictine convent. The serene Our Lady of Mercy sits on a tiny island where it shelters its famous ancient statue of the miraculous Virgin – the blessed Lady of Mercy. |
