Budva's "Stari Grad" or old town is worth a gander, but if you're short on time, head for [[Kotor]] instead. It's far more "alternative lifestyle" friendly.
Budva's Stari Grad is heavily reconstructed, has very small narrow stone paved walkways (nice in the off-season, but almost completely un-navigable amidst the throngs of tourists in the summer), and is filled with overpriced shops hawking the latest designer fashions appealing primarily to Russian and Eastern European tastes.
Budva has some pebbly beaches (not a lot of sand here) with clear water, however; they're packed shoulder to shoulder with tourists during the summer months and backed by outdoor bars with pounding dance music. Approximately 1/2 of the beach front are filled with pay-per-use chairs and umbrellas that - as of summer 2009 - will run you about 10 euro for 2 chairs and an umbrella. Otherwise you can cast your towel onto the pebbles on the "free" areas.
