This newly refurbished 3-storey Baroque townhouse has been given a new lease of life as the Galathea, a cozy hotel in the village of Prcanj. Sitting on a quiet bay stretch, this lovely boutique stay has been turned into a place where guests can deservedly relax and unwind.
It is operated by the same company that is behind the Eco Hotel Carruba in Tivat, having earned the respect and recognition of many returning guests. One might thus assume that this reputation would transcend into the Galathea, which undoubtedly it does – the hotel is one of the best in the region.
Location
The Hotel Galathea is situated directly by the water in Prcanj’s center, only a few meters from the stairs to the Church of the Birth of the Blessed Virgin Mary, formerly the largest religious edifice in the Southern Adriatic Sea. The area around Prcanj also has a fair amount of waterfront restaurants and bars.
