    Would be great if the area downstairs with bikes and stuff could be more of a space for guests to use informally. Plus whether guests could have access to making their own coffee / getting a coffee before the start of breakfast upstairs.

    Very close to the beach and great to have a first floor restaurant with fantastic views with power boat hire and driving from the fab Ravi.

    Vendodhja eshte e shkelqyer shume afer detit ,vendi eshte i qete per ata qe duan relaks. Gjithashtu ketu ofrohet mundesia per udhetim me skaf per ne shpellen e haxhi Aliut dhe ne ishullin e Sazanit.Dhomat jane te pastra dhe krevati i rehatshem.Familja qe menaxhon hotelin eshte shume mikpritese.Ja rekomandoj cdo njerit qe te vij ketu.

    A clothes line or racks in the back so guests can have a place to dry swimsuits for the next day would be helpful.

    The basic room as seen in the picture is comfortable, close to the beach, and the staff welcoming. We also had the breakfast and dinner option which was continental breakfast and fresh fish for dinner. It was nice and filling.

    We were made to feel very welcome at this quirky and homely guest house. The location is peaceful, just across a small road from the sea. We watched the fishermen tending to their nets whilst eating a delicious freshly prepared breakfast. We enjoyed a very good supper the evening before of locally caught fish and prawns. A very relaxing and enjoyable brief stay - we hope to return one day.

    I simply loved the refreshing shower in the morning, but that might not be for everyone. All the little things that might seem out of the ordinary to many , just enhanced the quaintness of this family run stay.

    Really close to the beach and plenty of parking. The hosts were super friendly and helpful. I can imagine that the place will be busy during the summer. Our dinner inside was super cosy with a wood burning stove to keep us warm. This place was so incredibly unique. The home made food was so good and for a price you will not be paying in the UK or anywhere in the world - and that for the freshest fish you will ever find in a restaurant of this magnitude. The Raki as a welcome drink was a nice touch. You get to meet the whole family of this quaint establishment, which makes it even more special.

    Gorgeous location with incredibly friendly and helpful staff. The owner is multilingual and amazingly hospitable, even providing us with a meal when we arrived much later than expected. The location is in the beach and is totally idyllic!

    I should have planned to stay a longer.

    The staff were like long lost friends. They made you feel so special. The place was a real reflection of the lovely people who ran it. Full of charm and arty charisma and visible signs of a bloody lot of hard work. The location is breathtaking and from your room you will be a maximum of 30m from the water. We were there in late September. The weather was still gorgeous and 28 degrees but the summer season wS winding up which meant it was a bit more peaceful which suited us perfectly. A little slice of heaven I reckon - Maxolas Dream

    I think this might be the best beach in Orikum / Vlora region. The rooms are cozy, with a very comfortable bed. The beach is clean, the sunbeds are included in the price. The water is crystal clear, there are no medusas or sea urchins, or such. We got delicious and filling breakfast every morning, even on the day we left, in the early morning. The owners helped us to organise a short trip to the ancient ruins of Orikos, the greek settlement. Also, he took us by car to catch a regular bus from Orikum to Vlore center in the morning, we had a kind of a rodeo. All in all, this place is a nice choice if you need a relaxing time, far from the crowd, with a beautiful beach.

    The rooms are cramped for 4 adults with the dog, need some redecoration and proper cleaning, but yet again you don't spend time in the room with the sea access this great.

    Location, location, location!! Closest to the beach we have ever been, just two steps away. The sunbeds and umbrellas are included in the price of the room,so it is perfect! There is a shower at the private beach - so convenient after salty water. The entrance to the sea is perfect, sandy and not too deep. The atmosphere is great, no fuss just piece and quiet. Almost no tourists, a lot of lical People. Good restautants within walking distance. The breakfast was ok, not too diverse but included in price again which is great. The owners are fantastic People!! Very kind and helpful. And you are allowed with the dog of any size, so if u're travelling with one, this place will be a great choice.

    fantastic family-run hotel 20 meters from the private beach. Very good and plentiful breakfast, delicious restaurant where you can try delicacies cooked by the very nice couple who manage the hotel. The atmosphere is familiar, the owners are very kind, helpful and do everything to make you feel at ease. Incredible hospitality and maximum kindness, incredible value for money, absolutely recommended
