Amare Hotel

Pros: The hotel looks fairly new, and would be good for total relaxation by the pool, or for anyone who does not wish to do any exploring as it’s quite isolated. As it’s practically at the top of a hill, it offers lovely views of the sea. Rooms and common areas are clean. Cons: The hotel is up a winding and steep hill, so one would need a powerful hire car. There is no access to the beach. A taxi ride down to the nearest beach at Dhermi (where there are many shops & restaurants) would set you back about 15-20 euros each way. Breakfast was limited and unimaginative, probably because there were not many guests staying when we were there. The offering was the same for the 3 mornings we stayed. As regards toiletries, we had 3 small bottles of shampoo, but bizarrely, no shower gel or body lotion. We doubt if we will stay here again as we have since discovered that there are many rental apartments and competitively priced hotels down by the beaches at Dhermi and Palase.

Il tramonto più bello della città, l’albergo è nuovissimo camere nuovissime, pulito. Piscina con vista mare bellissima, personale e staff dell’hotel gentilissimo. Un grazie particolare a Juli che è stato di fondamentale aiuto, anche a livello organizzativo per noi che era la prima volta in Albania. Torneremo a trovarvi, grazie!
