“This beachfront property, with its focus on family-friendly amenities and wellness options, strikes me as a relaxing escape along the Adriatic. I'm particularly drawn to the exclusive perks offered with 'The Level' package, especially the adults-only rooftop pool and bar. While it appears to cater primarily to families and larger groups, the modern accommodations and diverse dining choices suggest a stay with broad appeal.”

Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Melia Durres Albania is largely praised for its modern and spacious rooms, as well as multiple pools, including a pool bar and swim-up bar, and a great beach with a beach bar. The breakfast is a standout feature for many. Though the buffet can become repetitive after a week, others recommend going all-inclusive for access to the restaurants like the delicious Italian option where takeaway pizza is available; however, a few guests mentioned occasional issues with the air conditioning turning off automatically.

super clean roomdecent buffetgood bedroomfaulty airconunreliable eventsmissing instructor
I stayed for a week under half board. Our breakfast and dinner were included. with this board, we had access to a buffet at breakfast and dinner. the buffet was decent, but after a week, it became a bit monotonous. the bedrooms were very good, and you could not hear anyone next to you. the room was kept super clean every day.
the aircon turns off after a rough period of 2 hours as its motion detected. this meant we woke up hot and had to reactivate it at night. the hotel arranges free classes or activities each day. on 3 separate occasions we tried to attend a scheduled class, and no instructor turned up.

uneven experience

ineffective air conditioningrepetitive breakfast
the air conditioning was not effective it struggled to cool the room and often switched off. it was quite annoying to wake up in the middle of the night feeling hot. also, the breakfast buffet became repetitive after a few days there weren't enough options to keep it interesting for a longer stay.
