10/10 Exceptional

We enjoyed our stay here. The hotel modern, clean, and spacious with plenty of great amenities. We enjoyed the pool (towels included) and also the reserved section of sunbeds at the beach across the road. Please note that other people not staying at the hotel can also rent these for a charge. We were close to everything that we needed, including a shop nearby. It’s about a 15-minute walk to the main row of restaurants in Himara, but this wasn’t an issue for us. You’re also next to some nice beach clubs. Lastly, Erica at reception was great. She was very helpful and took good care of us throughout our stay. Sadly the TV didn’t work in our room. I asked for this to be looked at, but it wasn’t resolved. Overall, I’d recommend this hotel.

Solid hotel, not for princes and princesses

This is not a bad hotel. But it's a little half-baked still. It's an odd reworking of an existing apartment building. No coffee in the room. The shower is a little awkward and will run out of hot water if you're in there for a while, but most won't be taking a shower for that long anyway. They do restock fresh soap daily from Lush which we enjoyed. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Don't stay here if you need everything to be perfect. Stay here if you're gonna be spending all your time at the beach and doing other activities all day and just coming back to rinse off and get horizontal.

2/10 Poor

We recently stayed at this establishment and, unfortunately, we are left with a very mixed impression. From the moment we arrived, we felt a heavy, unwelcoming atmosphere. A group of four staff members regularly sat around a table near the entrance, and made no effort to hide their behavior — every time we passed by, the two seated with their backs to us would turn around simultaneously, accompanied by whispering and persistent staring. This kind of conduct is both inappropriate and unsettling in a place meant to offer relaxation and hospitality. Throughout our stay, we received no greetings or signs of courtesy from the staff — except, ironically, on the morning of our departure, when one of them finally spoke to me, not to say hello, but to curtly remind me that it was our last day, just as I was heading to the pool at 10:00 AM (despite check-out being at 11:30 AM). In terms of organization, we were surprised to be given only one room key for two people, which made it difficult to manage our activities independently. After requesting a second key, it was handed to us without any explanation or comment. It was only on the third day — when we mentioned at the front desk that our room still hadn’t been cleaned in the morning — that we received a message blaming us for “monopolizing both keys.” This was the first time we were told that the hotel only had two keys per room: one for the guests and one for housekeeping. In conclusion unwelcoming staff, poor service, unpleasant

Amazing stay, great location, meters from the beach and the staff were great too. The room itself was surprisingly much bigger than expected and I was even given Lush products in the bathroom, very impressed.

The hotel is perfect for anyone looking for a peaceful stay with beautiful beach views and spacious surroundings. They also have a very good restaurant, which made the experience even better. Free parking and breakfast were included as well. While the breakfast options were limited, the food was delicious. Overall, it was a great experience!

This hotel exceeded expectations in every way. The property is beautiful, clean and modern. The pool is a highlight and has great loungers. The room was very nice with a comfortable bed and good quality Lush soaps. The location is ideal with the beach just across the street and good restaurants nearby. What really stood out was the staff at this hotel. They were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. I dont usually write reviews but this hotel deserves to be recognized!

Nice location with parking and the private beach with loungers was great! The shower was ok and the room was small but totally worth it for the private beach! Very walkable location to a bunch of restaurants!

Huoneistohotelli, jossa on pieni jääkaappi huoneessa, mutta ei muuta (esim. astioita tai vedenkeitintä). Siivous tulee kun tulee. Et voi valita "älä häiritse" vaan ainoastaan "no housekeeping today".

Incrível! Hotel super novo, equipe prestativa, e várias comodidades: elevador, estacionamento coberto (mas enche fácil!), piscina, praia privativa com serviço de cadeira/guarda sol. A localização também é super boa: vários restaurantes e bares no entorno, fácil acesso à estrada e outras praias. Somente se atente que a recepção não é 24h, caso planeje chegar muito tarde. Tivemos somente uma má experiência com o cheiro do ar condicionado, mas nada que afetasse a ótima imagem que o hotel nos causou!

Séjour globalement satisfaisant

Le personnel à la réception était accueillant et professionnel, la chambre était propre, et même si nous n’avions pas la vue sur mer attendue, les transats proposés à la plage et le parking en sous-sol sont des atouts appréciables. En revanche, l’isolation laissait à désirer, et nous entendions les pas des occupants du dessus.
