Hidden in the shades of Mediterranean pine with a clear view on the beach and sunset, just imagine dancing with the rhythm of the wind, sound of the waves and one and only Rick Swann

Fort George - party in a fortress

Fort George is a product of 200 years of naval squabbling in the Adriatic. After an extensive time of restoration, we’re now a multifunctional event space and burgeoning bastion of quality music, art, celebration and cuisine. The ambiance at Fort George is magical! The hilltop location overlooks the sea on three sides. The relaxing feeling of a Secret Garden and dinner at amazing restaurant on a cliff will be ideal before the cherry on top – Michael Feiner!
