Reviews of Lost Seaside Hotel

Beautiful property and location to the sea. Was given a sea view room. Think they are all sea view facing and decorated very well.

The staff are completely rude and ignorant. We were ignored when trying to order any food or drink at the beach club as it a was clear they put the albanins before any other nationality. It took almost an hour to get a drink ordered and then an agonising wait for our change as the resort only takes cash payments for food and drink.

Nice and beautifully styled little Hotel (~12rooms) with great view and an amazing restaurant. Our room was pretty, the balcony door well sealed, so the noise stays outside. The staff was very friendly and helpful. "Normal" sunbeds with umbrella in the beachclub are included, for the more fancy ones (Beach Beds) you'll need to pay a discounted rate as a hotelguest. We've stayed here for 4 nights and had great and relaxed experience.

The bathrooms in the hotelrooms could've been larger (we had two differents rooms, both bathrooms were tiny, after showering the toilet was always wet). The Beach Club and Restaurant are heavily frequented by Day Guests. Cool music all over the place, but it gets pretty loud in the evening, which was not an issue for us but could be unpleasant for others. Most beach club guests seem to come here to make photos for Social Media. The parking lot will be crowded everyday, they are tightly stacking cars and you'll have to leave your keys with the guards so they can move cars around. We found the city of Saranda itself with its beach not very attractive, but it's a good base for exploring the more beautiful beaches and attractions

Beautiful location and the staff was lovely! The noise was not an issue at all despite some reviews we’ve seen. Would definitely come back.

We had a small issue with our AC that was noticeable as soon as we entered our room, but the staff was very kind and fixed it once we let them know.

Receptionist was amazing and welcomed us so warmly. Our room was exceptional and better than expected. The location the sea the pool were great. Igli at the restaurant in the evening was exceptional and made us feel at home. He is an asset to the team. ledi at the pool area also stood out and was kind and attentive. Food at the restaurant was 10/10. We will be back anytime we visit the south of Albania.

The sunbeds are usually full when you first arrive so won’t get to use the facilities but the next day you can reserve and pay extra for more comfort

The best place in saranda

I am extremely disappointed to have to write this complaint regarding the unacceptable conduct of your restaurant manager during my recent stay on 08.08.2025 What I experienced was not only unprofessional but downright disrespectful, and completely inappropriate for someone in a management position. Upon arriving at the restaurant, I approached the reception desk outside to ask about reserving a specific table. I was clearly told by staff that it was not possible to reserve a particular table, and that I should simply wait until one became available. I patiently waited, and once a table was free, I was seated and placed my order. Not long after, the restaurant manager came to my table and abruptly told me that I had to leave because the table was “reserved for later.” His tone was rude, dismissive, and entirely lacking in basic courtesy. He made no effort to listen to my explanation about what I had been told by his own staff moments earlier. His attitude made it clear that he had no interest in resolving the situation professionally, and he instead chose to humiliate a paying guest. This incident reflects a serious lack of coordination among your staff and, more importantly, a manager who fails to uphold even the most basic standards of hospitality. In my opinion, his behavior was arrogant, unwelcoming, and damaging to the hotel’s reputation. I have stayed at your hotel twice in the past and had always enjoyed my visits. However, due to this unpleasant encounter and the disgraceful behavior of the restaurant manager, I will not be returning again. I urge you to take this matter seriously, as no guest should be treated in such a manner in an establishment that claims to value customer service. I expect a written response explaining what actions will be taken to address this issue.

Our stay at Lost Seaside in Saranda was incredibly disappointing and far from the serene experience described on their website. The site promotes the hotel as a peaceful retreat where you can “drift off to sleep to the gentle sounds of the waves.” In reality, you’ll be kept awake until 3 a.m. by blaring club music coming from the hotel itself. It’s more of a day-and-night party venue than a hotel — something that was not made clear at all when booking. We booked for 4 nights, left after one night. Even with earplugs the noise was unbearable. The hotel functions as a beach club filled with external visitors during the day, and unfortunately, hotel guests are not a priority. We were only given access to 6 sunbeds by the pool, unless we wanted to pay extra for shaded spots, which felt unfair. Also, we had to wear a paper wristband for the entire stay — cheap and uncomfortable. Security told us we couldn’t bring in a. bottle of water we tried to bring in, despite the hotel only providing two small bottles per day in the room. Access to drinkable water shouldn’t be restricted or treated as a luxury. The website is incredibly misleading. There’s no mention of the late-night music or party atmosphere, and phrases like “serene” and “relaxing” are completely false. Even the step access to the ocean was broken and dangerous, as was the ladder on the ocean pontoon — a serious safety issue. Breakfast was poor, with no bowls for yogurt, no toaster, and no fresh fruit. While lunch at the restaurant was actually delicious, the waitstaff were uninterested and inattentive. On the positive side, the receptionist was kind and helpful, and the housekeepers were probably the nicest and most genuine people we encountered during the stay. Unless you’re visiting specifically to party and don’t care about sleep, comfort, or being treated well as a guest, I would not recommend Lost Seaside. It’s a misrepresented, overpriced, and

The location of the hotel was perfect. The room was beyond comfortable and the parties were the best in the area

the Room was nicely decorated

the place is a party hotel, dont go there if you want to rest, the music is crazy loud and it went on until after 1AM

Nothing

Everything

Executive suite was lovely but jacuzzi was leaking .

It’s a beach club first and hotel second . Loud dance music playing until 1am every night .

This place was amazing we beautiful hotel, very clean an staff really friendly and helpful .

Everything was good, only thing I will say is to contact the hotel the day before checkin to reserve a free sunbed , we didn’t realise and the hotel was busy with no bed left when we arrived. Buts we were happy to chill on the comfy sofas until later in the day when people moved off , and we moved to a cabana bed for no charge .

Beautiful hotel by the seaside. Very nice rooms and pool area. Nice restaurant with a sea view and great food. Especially Ledi (Armando) was a top class waiter, being very attentive to any guest needs, in addition to being great at both wine and conversation. Also the other Ledi was very serviceminded and easy going and provided us with great poolside service.

The only down side with the hotel is the very loud techno music at the beach bar around the clock. Relaxing in the beach cabanas would have been better with softer music and the night disturbance for hotel guests should have been communicated more clear in advance by the hotel.

The rooms are really nice.

Lost seaside is actually not a hotel, but a beach club with a few additional rooms. Hotel guests are not a priority at all. For all the fancy sun beds you see on the pictures, you have to pay extra (70€ per day!). So paying that much money only for a pretty room does not make sense at all. Just stay at a cheaper hotel and pay for a day pass to Lost Seaside. You get the same service.

Amazing hotel! Restaurant is amazing, the food was sensational at breakfast, lunch and dinner, fabulous chef. The pool and beach club were fantastic and our rooms were spacious and clean. Nice stroll down to central Saranda beach and other restaurants was convenient although we opted to eat mostly at the hotel when we weren’t doing day trips as the food was so great.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Absolutely loved our stay at Lost Sea Side! The hotel is in a perfect location — just steps from the beach, with stunning views and a peaceful atmosphere. The rooms were modern, clean, and very comfortable. The staff were friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with a smile.
