- Tobias (9/5): - wir hatten einen tollen Aufenthalt. Wir hatten Glück und das 4-er Zimmer ganz oben außen, somit hatten wir einen tollen Meerblick (3. Reihe, hat aber von oben nicht gestört). Das Apartment ist hübsch und modern ausgestattet, alles sehr sauber. Es gibt eine Grundausstattung, so dass das Wichtigste da ist. Um ein 3-Gang-Menü dort zu kochen, ist es eher weniger geeignet. Der Parkplatz am Haus ist sehr praktisch, da Parken am Strand überall schon 10 € kostet. Zu Fuß ist man in weniger als 5 min am Strand. Livadhi-Beach hat uns generell sehr gut gefallen.
- Veronika (10/5): -
- Evan (10/5): Wonderful hotel in Livadhi beach - highly recommend - This hotel is wonderful, super clean, and very friendly staff. It is directly across from the beautiful beach of Livadhi and walking distance to restaurants. There is also free private parking. Very relaxing stay. Everything is amazing!
- Nina (8/5): -
- Guest (9/5): - Moře a příroda krásné, z apartmánu byl kousek na pláž, Pokoj byl vždy uklizený a čistý, parkování dobré. Krásný výhled z balkonu na moře a z druhé strany na hory. Nepořádek mimo apartmány. Na ulici i na pláži vyhozené rozlámané slunečníky, lehátka (leželo to tam celý týden), neskutečný nepořádek na ulici kolem popelnic
- Vojtěch (10/5): Great Location and Comfortable Stay in Himarë - The accommodation is in a great location. It’s just a two-minute walk to the beach. There is a parking area where you can park comfortably. The rooms we booked were located outside the main building and were probably newer. We really appreciated the privacy and the small terrace where we could have breakfast. Although the accommodation has facilities where breakfast could be served, during our stay this was not possible. However, since there is a bakery right next to the property, open from early morning until the evening, it wasn’t much of an issue. The room had everything we needed. The trash was taken out daily and sometimes the towels were even replaced, which I wouldn’t have expected here, but it was a very pleasant surprise. I can only recommend this place. Nothing major, just perhaps a note that communication from the owner through Booking was practically nonexistent, which feels a bit unusual, but upon arrival he was there in person and sorted everything out with us without any issues, so it wasn’t a problem. The option to pay by card via Revolut or PayPal is also a big plus.

- Catalina (10/5): Un sejur excepțional - Gazdele au fost foarte primitoare și drăguțe.
Totul a fost la superlativ. M-aș întoarce cu drag de fiecare dată când voi avea ocazia.
Curățenie zilnică în camere, n-am avut probleme cu apa caldă , aer condiționat. Parcare în interior pentru toată lumea. Mic dejun excepțional. Absolut nimic de comentat

- Besjana (10/5): - Everything was good. The staff were very helpful and kind.
- Raik (10/5): - Schöne Unterkunft in Strandnähe mit super Service. Vom Balkon Blick zum Meer und zu unserem Lieblingsrestaurant BlueBay (unbedingt besuchen!).
Wir können die Unterkunft uneingeschränkt empfehlen.
Sie liegt nicht direkt im Zentrum von Himare, was für uns sehr schön war. Restaurants sind in der Nähe und fußläufig zu erreichen. Ebenfalls können wir den Bäcker empfehlen, der 1min entfernt ist.
Frühstück wird in der Unterkunft für 5€ pro Person angeboten. (haben wir allerdings nicht genutzt, wegen des Bäckers🙂)
Der Strand Livadi gehört zu den schönsten, die wir auf unsere Albanienreise gesehen haben. Ist nur 3 min Fußweg entfernt.
Empfehlung: Ganz nach links gehen, denn dort ist etwas ruhiger und Liegen plus Schirm sind für 20€ am Tag zu mieten. 2. Schlafzimmer war leider ohne Klimaanlage. Auf Nachfrage wurde uns jedoch unkompliziert
ein Ventilator zur Verfügung gestellt, der ein wenig geholfen hat.
- Ardit (10/5): -
- Angelo (9/5): - Tutto bene, sia la struttura che la proprietaria, lo consiglio per una vacanza di relax. Niente da dire in negativo
- Holger Plangarica (10/5): -
- Alain BLANCHET (10/5): - Emplacement près de la plage, chambre neuve, très belle salle de bains, terrasse. Petit déjeuner copieux disponible et café offert. Rien
- Roberta (10/5): -
- Andrii (9/5): Залишилися лише приємні враження ) - Особлива подяка Альмі, яка робила все щоб наше перебування було максимально комфортним! Гарне розташування, чистота, за 50 метрів пекарня, свій двір (для машини).
Ну і при виїзді несподівано еспресо в дорогу, а дітям пляшки з водою)) ще раз дякую! Єдине не вистачало поличок і шафок на кухні. Якщо збираєтесь самостійно готувати то важко все зручно розмістити (воду, олію, крупи, хліб, випічку, борошно, спеції тощо.)
- Guest (10/5): - Dhoma familjare ne te cilen qendruam ishte shume komode dhe e paster. Ishte menduar per cdo detaj. Me duhet te theksoj se ne gjithmone udhetojme per pushime me qenin tone dhe ne te gjithe jugun ku kemi qene, ky ka qene akomodimi me i mire petfriendly ne te cilin kemi qendruar. Heren tjeter planifikojme nje qendrim afatgjate. Mengjesi ishte i bollshem, i shijshem dhe me nje cmim mjaft te arsyeshem. Ambienti ku sherbehet mengjesi eshte shume i kendshem, me linja te pastra. Zonja qe ne priti ishte shume e sjellshme dhe e buzeqeshur. E rekomandoj plotesisht! Çdo gje ishte perfekt! Respekt per perkushtimin dhe cilesine qe ofroni.
- Petr (9/5): -
- Marek (10/5): - The staff was very friendly and accomodation very good
- Margherita (8/5): Molto carino - la posizione, l’affabilità dello staff wifi molto debole, difficile fare la doccia senza bagnare tutta casa
- Cuberi (10/5): -
- Nick (10/5): -
- Edit (10/5): - Very nice staff and excellent service!
Clean and comfortable.
Near the sea, we didn’t need to drive the car to go to the beach, only 3 min walking.
- Mario (10/5): - Excellent location, just 2 minutes walk to the beach. The host was nice and friendly. The room was in the best condition with great facilities. Would definitely come back.
- Gonzalo (10/5): - Instalación de 10, muy cerca de la playa con una anfitriona muy atenta.
- Gramos (8/5): - It has a good location, close to the beach, a nice balcony and plenty of parking space. The rooms could use new furnitures, as the current ones feel a bit old.
- gashi (10/5): Great place, cosy rooms, very friendly owners. - Great location, very quiet and cosy. Everything was new and very functional. We loved the outdoor terrace up front.
- Daniel (10/5): - Schönes Apartment mit viel Platz und Meerblick. Privat Parkplatz direkt vorm Hotel.
Sehr nette Gastgeberin. Wlan könnte besser sein
- eliona (10/5): -
- Elena (10/5): Обязательно остановитесь в этом месте! - Прекрасное место, чтобы провести свой отпуск!
Отличный ремонт. Очень удобная кровать. Везде чистота и порядок. Уборка и замена полотенец раз в два дня. Всё быстро и аккуратно.
В номере есть холодильник и телевизор.
Зона отдыха со столом и стульями на улице возле каждого номера. Очень приятно посидеть вечером с видом на горы и слушать щебет птиц, кружащих в небе.
Близко от моря. Пешком не больше пяти минут.
Замечательные, внимательные и отзывчивые хозяева. Всегда готовы помочь. Очень душевные люди! Некуда было повесить полотенце в душе. Хотелось хотя бы один крючок.
- Tifany (7/5): -
- Blokhuis (9/5): Very hospitable, comfortable place to stay and enjoy the beach and nature. - We had a brand new room, which was very comfortable and clean. The reception was very friendly and made you feel at ease. Excellent coffee, by the way, you should give that a try. It was just a short walk to the beach, which was very quiet mid June. Very clear sea, which looked more like an aquarium because of the fish you could see. Nothing
- Magart76 (10/5): - Cozy place. Very nice owner/manager. 100 meter to the beach. I recommend this place.
- Gorani (10/5): -
- Artemisa Zenelaj (10/5): -
- Andres (10/5): - This place has clean spacious rooms right by the beach for a fair price. Our host was so incredibly kind. We can’t thank you enough for making us feel so welcome. The WiFi was not very good
- Lisa (9/5): -
- Léna (10/5): Studio super confort! - Logement confortable, propre et bien équipé Besoin d’une voiture pour accéder et se déplacer dans les environs
- Gino (9/5): Comfortable place, great value for money! - Everything described in the list of facilities was there. We got a seaview on the second floor as requested. Free parking on the enclosure. The host was friendly and helpful. It was a place that made you relax. There is no sign board with the name of the property. There is no shower curtain (like in a lot of other Albanian rental rooms) so you wet the whole bathroom while taking a shower.
We were a bit disappointed in the area: Livadi beach and Jale beach were in fact giant construction places: everywhere road works, excavators, building, restoration of beach bars, so a lot of ugly views and a lot of noise and fumes. It will be probably nice when all that is finished …
- Annie (9/5): Lovely apartment overlooking Livadhi beach - Great location close to the beach
Comfy bed, nice kitchen facilities
Friendly responsive host Patio door needs some maintenance- couldn’t get it to lock properly
- Roel (10/5): Een kostbare parel - Wij sluiten ons volledig aan bij de review van Kevin Kris. Wat een prachtige hartelijke familie, we voelden ons meteen thuis in het superschone en goed uitgeruste appartement met rondom natuur. We besloten langer te blijven en we werden bij ons vertrek bij de bus gebracht. Dit is zeker een aanrader voor een ieder die van rust houdt maar ook dicht bij de zee wil ontspannen. Dank jullie wel kostbare Foti, Caliope, Jan, Mario en Wilma we komen graag bij jullie terug.
- Giampaolo (9/5): - Villa Calliope,
La casa delle rondini.
In un paese in forte sviluppo con migliaia di strutture in costruzione un posto incantevole e molto green
- Magda (8/5): Ogólnie pobyt oceniamy bardzo dobrze, cena do oferowanej jakości adekwatna. Gdybyśmy mieli wrócić do Himare, rozważylib - Obiekt położony w cichym i urokliwym miejscu co dawało duży komfort wypoczynku. Pokój czysty, z bardzo wygodnymi łóżkami i świeżą pościelą. Trochę słabe wyposażenie tj. brak zapasowych worków na śmieci, małe ilości podstawowych kosmetyków.
- Tom_90_Berlin (10/5): Saubere moderne Unterkunft mit Blick auf das Wasser - Die Villa liegt nicht im Hauptort von Himare. Das macht es sehr angenehm.
Ein Bäcker und ein Supermarkt sind in wenigen Minuten erreichbar.
Es ist ein super relaxter Ort.
Die Zimmer sind total sauber und modern eingerichtet.
Wir haben die bereits weiter empfohlen.
- Holger (8/5): O.K. - Super Lage am Meer Ausstattung der Zimmer könnte besser sein.

- Tatiana (10/5): - Потрясающе доброжелательные и приятные хозяева. Не особо говорят по-английски, но мы все равно друг друга поняли и даже что-то обсудили. Номер замечательный, есть все для комфортного отдыха. Есть бесплатная парковка.Пляж в 5 минутах ходьбы.

- Leo (9/5): Top - La propreté du lieu ,
L’accueil chaleureux
Belle surprise de la chambre encore mieux que sur les photos
- Audrey (9/5): Top - L’accueil chaleureux, la propreté du lieu , la découverte du logement encore mieux que sur les photos. Literie très confortable
- Anis (7/5): Bien - Priorité L’attente pour la chambre
- yaiza mar (8/5): - Lo nuevo que está y las vistas al mar
Lugar privilegiado, con una panadería justo al lado y markets a los que puedes ir caminando.
Nos mejoraron la habitación de forma gratuita.
Hay cafetera italiana. Cortinas que dejan pasar la luz totalmente y te despierta y el WiFi tiene muy mala señal , y no habiendo roaming es bastante importante.
Menaje de cocina muy justo.

- Klaus (10/5): -
- Sarah (9/5): Perfect family run hotel - Clean, comfortable family run hotel/motel just a quick little walk down to Livadh Beach, and a 10 min drive to Himare. We loved this location bc it was quiet and more neighborly than staying in Himare. The family that runs the villa is so lovely and warm. Plenty of parking, comfortable beds, and a nice view from the balcony. We ate at Dimitri’s once a day (everything is delicious) and also enjoyed the bakery next door.
- Sarah (10/5): Perfect accommodation at the best beach in Albania - stay here! :) - Everything about this accommodation exceeded my expectations. I couldn't recommend it more. I have never encountered friendlier staff who don't fuss over you but actually just make you feel like you're a friend coming home every time they see you. The rooms are spotless, modern and comfortable. Nice balcony overlooking the water and a stunning view of the mountains from the back window. A 2 minute walk to the beach and a fantastic bakery next door. Couldn't ask for anything more. If i'm lucky enough to go back to Livadi Beach (which is the best beach in Albania, in my opinion) i would stay here again. Can't think of a single thing!
- Maryse (8/5): Appartement 1 chambre seulement, rapport qualité prix correct - Emplacement proche de la plage avec un parking ce qui est un luxe en Albanie. Très propre. Jolie vue. Calme Ce n'est pas un appartement 2 chambres mais 1 chambre et 2 lits dans le séjour. Donc 1 seule chambre fermée. A savoir, pas d'intimité dans le séjour. En résumé, un manque de clarté dans le descriptif.

- gökhan (10/5): Harika - Konumu, espresso ikramı, Güleryüz, manzara, otopark
- Thomas (9/5): Tolles Quartier für Ferien am Meer. - tolle Lage, täglich wird gereinigt, schöner Blick aufs Meer, Parkplatz vor dem Haus, in 5min ist man am Meer, Bäcker direkt nebenan, was will man mehr? hm, keine Ahnung
- Maria (8/5): Very nice and cosy apartment with a sea view. - Really nice apartment in a good location, very close to the sea and with a sea view from balcony. The staff was very nice and it was possible to do laundry for a small fee. The air conditioning was in the main room only therefore it was getting warm in the other room.
- Sónia Vasconcelos (9/5): Excelente opção para estadia tranquila na zona de Himare. Repetiria. - Apartamento confortável, tranquilo, com estacionamento privado, perto da praia, dos restaurantes (boas opções) e supermercado.
Varanda agradável, com vista para o mar, com toldo para proteger do Sol.
Cafeteira para fazer café!!
Check in rápido. Boa hospitalidade, a confirmar o que encontrámos durante toda a viagem pela Albânia. Pagamento em dinheiro ou PayPal. Não tendo conta PayPal ativa no momento, tivémos que procurar ATM para levantar dinheiro, com consequente pagamento de taxa de levantamento.
Aceitar pagamento com cartão é, no meu entender, uma vantagem.
Deixo no entanto a nota que nos serviram um excelente café expresso, acompanhado de um momento de conversa agradável, enquanto endereçámos a questão do levantamento.
- Tom (5/5): Preis-Leistungsverhältnis eher schlecht. - Kurze Distanz zum Strand. Nette Gastgeber Nur sehr spartanische Ausstattung. Kochen ist kaum möglich. Pro Person nur jeweils ein Glas, Messer, Gabel. Dafür recht teuer. Im Haus sind 12 Parteien d.h. Abends ist es oft sehr laut.
- Klodian (8/5): -
- Alex (9/5): Heerlijk - Eigenlijk alles. Goeie plek, rustig, hele lieve mensen. Enige wat fijn was geweest is als er ook een deur bij de tweede slaapkamer was geweest. Dan heeft diegene geen last als de rest wakker is. Maar de rest was top. Ga graag terug Niks noemenswaardig

- Philipp (8/5): - Netter Hotelbesitzer. Gute Lage nahe am Meer und direkt nebenan ist eine kleine leckere Bäckerei. Die Küchenausstatung war etwas wenig.
- Emilie (9/5): À recommander! - Emplacement idéal à quelques mètres de la plage. Propriétaire hyper accueillant avec qui nous avons pu échanger le temps d'un bon cappuccino en terrasse. Vue sur la mer. Très propre et très confortable. Boulangerie au pied de l'appartement.
Tout à disposition: linge de lit, serviettes de toilettes, éponge, liquide vaisselle, torchon, corde et pinces à linges pour étendre du linge devant le balcon. Pas gênant pour nous qui ne la regardons pas mais la télévision ne fonctionnait pas.
Pas d'eau chaude par moment.
- Michele (8/5): - Spiaggia stupenda e luogo di relax Purtroppo troppi cantieri aperti
- Evan (10/5): Great hotel nearby a beautiful beach! Very friendly staff and highly recommend! - Great location very close to the beach (5min walk). Super clean and quiet! Wonderful Everything was wonderful!
- Sally (7/5): Comfortable, very clean boutique hotel in a great location at Livadh Beach - Location is great very close to Livadh Beach and numerous restaurants and cafes.
Parking on site which was great
Cleanliness of the place cannot be faulted.
They happily did some washing for us which was very much appreciated.
Sitting having a coffee with the owners Dad on the leaning we checked out what a delightful gentleman. On arrival there was no one to meet us, after a couple of Whatsapps someone arrived to show us our room however we never had anything explained to us about the hotel. All communication throughout the stay was on WhatsApp, the owner was very responsive just unusual not to meet the person.
There is no air conditioning in the second room making privacy limited when sharing with friends.
Make sure to read the fine print of the booking, it is cash only payments! We hadn’t read that and had to scramble to pull the cash together at check out.
Nothing to do with the hotel but there’s a lot of work taking place on Livadh Beach as they completely fill the beach with umbrellas and sunbeds.
- Hiqmet (9/5): -
- Márcia (8/5): - Localização muito próxima da praia e estacionamento privado. Duche sem cortina/vidro e água corria constantemente na sanita.
