Featuring a striking curving outline visible against the distant Bosnian hills, but also merging effortlessly with the landscape, this resort with an onus on wellbeing is just 20 minutes by car from Sarajevo airport.

Intriguingly placed in the foothills of the mountains, the hotel offers 55 rooms and suites plus nine villas, gracefully decorated in natural wood and sprinkled with bold kilim (traditional Turkish) patterns. Its 180° Restaurant plates appetising international cuisine with panoramas of the surrounding rural majesty in widescreen definition.

But the resort’s main draw is arguably the visually stunning and treatment-abounding spa, where guests can find a moment’s calm in the pine sauna, a hammam or the spring-water pool topping up the already plentiful array of mountain views.
