Location is amazing, right on the lake. Room is also right on the lake with a nice terrace. There is a small sun bathing deck and swimming area but water was a freezing cold. Serving breakfast and dinner which was good. Area is very calm, village vibe with some animals. They also organized a boat trip to Shala river

The hotel is near by the lake and you can take a refreshing bath, swimming in summer days

Located beautifully isolated on the bank of the river. The owner was super friendly and helpful. It was a beatific scenery to spend the afternoon and a great overnight stop on the way to shala river

Me and my friend ended up extending our one night stay for two nights! We loved this guest house it’s in such a beautiful location! What really made our time at borealis special was the host who was always super sweet and helpful. Definitely recommend!

Perfect location next to the lake. The water is cold, but that is normal. We had a very nice dinner and breakfast. The road towards Komani and Borealis is a little bit bumpy. But can be done with a normal car. Ask them to organize a trip on the lake.

Maringlen, thank you so much for a magical stay. You were so kind and hard working. We can’t recommend this bucolic place enough. The breakfasts are so good - delicious Albanian pancakes, home reared honey, everything is natural and from the land. The family have put in so much effort to create this idyll. We rowed on the paddle boards, swam in the cold emerald lake (so refreshing), admired the mountains, climbed a waterfall, went to Shala river. For tranquility and beauty, there isn’t much better. I wish I had painted it.

Not enough toilet paper, but Maringlen was so kind to rush down with a new roll at 12 AM.

Perfect private guesthouse, very quiet, very romantic. You have the whole lake to yourself. Definitely recommend the optional dinner. The owner is very nice, drove our car down for us, and helped us with trips.

In the building where we slept, the ceiling is wooden, we heard every step and every word of the guests above us.

The location is amazing. The host was great and dinner was wonderful

The access to the villa is a path in poor conditions but anyway this is affordable.

The owner gave us a charming and excellent treat. And the views from the room is beautiful. Delicious local breakfast with homemade products.

Mario and his family have the most beautiful property. They harvest everything that they serve in the meals. It is lovely!

It's a beautiful location and the property is just as beautiful. The host was super helpful and arranged our Shala River tour as well. We were well taken care of. The breakfast was delicious and the rooms are impeccably clean. It is worth the long road to get there.

Everything superb

Fantastic host, extremely friendly with great Service. Delicious food. Location is absolutely amazing, just on the border of the lake. I jumped to the water before breakfast. The whole Area is in the big garden, with Lots of fruit. Its peace and quiet there, no Loud music. The Room is equipped with simply everything. All the details are thought over. Everything you need, including fridge, kettle, tea etc. Fully recommend this place and these people.

The soundproof was poor.

The room was nice and very clean. The breakfast and dinner were delicious (dinner was charged extra);the vegetarian option though was a little bland and needed more effort. The meals were served just in front of the lake and it was magical. Our dog was welcomed with no extra charge and this is important for us. I would have stayed again.

The lighting in the room could be improved and some people may be a bit intimidated by the access to the B and B, but it was well worth it!

The setting was amazing. We had dinner and breakfast right by the water. The view was breathtaking. The food was delicious.

Kichen could be better equipped. There is no sound isolation. For people who go there by car - the road is terrible to get there. But that is not the fault of the guesthouse.

Amazing view from the family room. All clean and nice. I liked the extra blankets. We had a nice dinner at the property with local produce.
