“Ventus Harbor Hotel earns its reputation on views alone; rooms and the terrace restaurant cantilever over the water, affording every guest a panorama. The seafood-heavy menu and attentive staff enhance the experience, while the location balances a sense of tranquil escape with proximity to Durres's attractions. While some might find the rooms a touch dated, the immediate connection to the sea more than compensates.”

The staffs were lovely and attentive. my sea view room was divine. the room was super clean and filled with all the essentials. food had a beautiful taste and was fairly priced too.

The hotels exterior needs a fresh coat of paint. the balcony door was a bit stiff. I struggled to slide it easily. there was no kettle in the room for making tea. I missed my morning cuppa.
