Igalo is a small town in the Herceg Novi municipality of Montenegro. It is accessible via the E65/E80 north headed to Dubrovnik, Croatia. It has a population of 3,754. The town adjoins Herceg Novi and is administratively divided leaving no clear division between the towns.
Located on the slopes of Mount Orjen, Igalo is regionally famous for the “DR Simo Milošević” Institute, a Mediterranean themed health spa which formerly attracted many tourists. Architect Aleksandar Đorđevic built this Institute. The institute is one of the unique hospitals and spas in the Balkans. Though the effects of the Yugoslav Wars limited Igalo’s attractiveness as a tourist destination, it nonetheless remains a popular resort for tourists from the surrounding region.
Former Yugoslav leader Tito had his summer villa in this town. This villa was subsequently used to host the last meeting between Slobodan Milošević (then President of Serbia) and Franjo Tuđman (then President of Croatia) amid the early stages of the Yugoslav Wars and fighting between Serbs and Croats throughout Croatia.
Accommodation in Igalo
Igalo’s allure and tourist development has always been fully based on the natural healing properties of his sea mud. Because of the adjacent location of Herceg Novi, which is within walking distance of each other and is easy to walk on the sea promenade Setaliste pet danica, the larger investors have chosen to invest in the larger projects. This means that the tourist growth in Igalo has mainly increased in the accommodation forms of apartments and holiday homes. The “DR Simo Milošević” institute has its own hotel for receiving guests. It offers a unique and almost nostalgic experience of the communist luxury and determines the street scene of Igalo.
