“In my opinion, this is a really appealing hotel, set slightly away from the busiest part of Sarande, with a beautiful pool and sea views; it also offers easy parking, which is a definite advantage. The staff are helpful, the rooms are modern and very clean, and a private beach adds to the appeal, making this a relaxing base for exploring the area.”
