Fantastic.

A truly unforgettable experience. From the moment we arrived, Flamo made us feel welcome. He wanted to share his life, culture and food with us. We even visited the farm up the road, where all the food they serve comes from.

Village vibes close to the city

Unique location 10 mins away from Gjirokaster center. Paved road along the way , close to the archaeological site of Antigonea. I would totally recommend it and the breakfast is with local produce and tasty. This is a small marvel and the owner very kind and sweet . Greetings to mr Flamur and his family thank you for everything!!

An amazing place to enjoy life!

The place is fantastic for those who want to escape the city life and explore the Antigonea park. It has a rustic vibe with an amazing garden and great interior decor. The host Flamur is amazing and ready to help with any of your needs. It has build a self sustaining environment and therefore everything that you eat there is 100% bio.

Peaceful home to stay near Girokaster

A very lovely house in the hills near Girokaster. Perfect for somewhere peaceful to stay out of the city but easy to drive down and park in the city for the day and see the sights. Flamur was a great host, very friendly and proud to show us his garden and home.

As with every guest house stay in Albania, you come for the views but you stay for the albanian hospitality. As a couple we enjoyed a lovely double room on a beautifully crafted hard wood bed in a calm of the beaten path location. We enjoyed our night there, entertaint by the host, who, dispite his knowledge of English, was able to convey his love for his country and culture and the people who visited his house. We absolutely loved our stay there and we were sadend we couldn't stay a another night due to our busy traveling schedule. When we will visit Albania again, we will surely pass by thia lovely home again!

Lovely experience with super friendly hosts. Would definitely recommend this place for people who want to have a calm an

Very cute place with homegrown veggies right next to the house. Very calm and relaxing. If you travel by car this is the perfect location in Gjirokaster. The landlord and his wife are super friendly and make a very authentic Albanian experience. On request you can experience a traditional dinner made of longstanding family recipes prepared with what is grown around the property.

If you want something to drink and eat- bring it with you.

A place in harmony. with naural noises from cows and birds. This is the place you want to visit to be a part of ordinary albanian life in the countryside. There is no restaurant, but this lovely couple open their kitchen if you will fix your own meal or grill outside. The breakfast-you wont miss it……. The appartment is beautiful and clean, with two balconys. Snd the bed is good. This couple will do everything to make you feel eelcome. Enjoy🥰

Beautiful garden Villa, like staying with Mom and Dad.

Beautiful Villa in a peaceful, traditional Albanian Village. Stone buildings, quaint school. Very friendly hosts, who went out of their way to be accommodating. Beautiful gardens inside the villa, smell of citrus blossoms and roses was incredible. Grandmother made us coffee early in the morning when I came knocking, which I was very grateful for. Included breakfast is simple, fresh, farm fare of cheeses, veggies, Chai Mali (mountain flower tea, yum!), and plain puff donuts (an unsweetened fried dough made fresh and hot by grandma). On check-in they brought us a hand made treat also.
