“Best accomodation in Albania”
This was, by far, the best accomodation we had while in Albania. The location high above the city was perfect for relaxing, and it offered a wonderful view over the city and the sea. The rooms were clean and decorated with great attention to detail. Breakfast was very varied and homemade, fresh, and delicious! The hotel manager was very pleasant and friendly and gave us valuable tips for the best beaches. We will definitely come back!

“Tryly enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back. Highly recommended!”
We had a fantastic stay at this lovely hotel. The location is perfect if you're looking to escape the noise and relax, it's peaceful, surrounded by nature, and the views are absolutely stunning. The owner and his wife are incredibly friendly and welcoming, they really make you feel at home. Breakfast was also amazing, with fresh and delicious options every morning.

The place is run by a small family who is working hard to make your stay unforgettable. The view from the property is stunning and probably one of the best in Sarande. The breakfast is outstanding, delicious and homemade with locales specialities. You can also have a cocktail or a great wine with antipasti watching the sunset. Definitely a gem in Sarande. Will definitely comeback when return.

“Villa Kristiano 21 provided an absolutely magical retreat that perfectly captured the beauty and hospitality of Albania”
The villa exceeded all our expectations! The traditional stone architecture combined with modern amenities created the perfect blend of authentic Albanian charm and comfort. The wooden balconies offered stunning views and were ideal for morning coffee and evening relaxation. The location in Sarandë provided easy access to beautiful beaches while maintaining a peaceful, private atmosphere surrounded by lush greenery. The villa was impeccably clean, well-maintained, and equipped with everything we needed. The host’s attention to detail was evident throughout the property, from the thoughtful amenities to the seamless check-in process.

Our stay at this villa in Sarandë was absolutely unforgettable. Perched high on the hillside, it offers breathtaking panoramic views of the entire city, the Ionian Sea, and even Corfu Island in the distance. The room was spotless, very comfortable, and equipped with everything we needed. The highlight was definitely the balcony – the view alone is worth millions. The host and staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating, making us feel right at home. Breakfast was on another level – beautifully prepared, delicious, and more than we could possibly finish. We can’t wait to come back!

“What a great find!.”
The staff is great and friendly and fun. The room is stunning, beautiful and the wine bar which is adjacent felt like cozy place where we would always end up the day. The place is surrounded by fruit trees, and the views! Probably the best view in all Sarande. Oh did I mention that each breakfast pretty much made? Sure we didn't have to eat lunch later on... And I managed to taste three different fruits I had never tasted in my life. Just a tip to get there as Google Maps and Waze are not very reliable, make sure that you're not coming from the back of the hill which was suggested from the highway), go first towards the beach and then follow the navigation back up. You want to access it from downtown. The other way will work but oh my gosh the 180o turns at 60% elevation... You might want to avoid that! We walked a couple of times to the beach and the boardwalk. Takes about 20 minutes, but it's a salty walk-up. Perfect for burning the calories you ate downtown...

“all perfect”
I think this accommodation is the most perfect one in Saranda. The room is large and clean and tidy, with complete disposable supplies and beautiful scenery outside the window. The most important thing is that the boss Andy is a warm-hearted and friendly person. Before we checked in, he replied to my messages on the Internet in time. After check-in, he also actively dealt with what we encountered and helped us rent a car and order food. Even though it is the off-season for tourism, he provides a very perfect and flawless service. But I prefer people who plan to rent a car to stay, because this hotel is on a hillside and only a few minutes' drive up. But you'll see a very beautiful view on it, and if you're travelling to Saranda, car rental is also the best choice for most people, so it's all worth it. It is highly recommended that all tourists give priority to this hotel!

Villa Kristiano is located on a hill above the city of Saranda, surrounded by beautiful palm and pine trees, offering great views over the sea and the city. Rooms are spacious, sparkling clean, with many amenities and super comfy beds. The breakfast is delicious and served every morning between 8-10am on the beautiful terrace of the property cafe/wine bar, right next to the rooms. The wine bar is a great choice as well for a late drink before sleeping, away from the crowds of the city. As for the owner, Andy, we are very pleased to having met him. He is very friendly with his stuff and the clients, and gave us many useful tips for our trip. Many thanks!

I loved EVERYTHING about my stay here. The view, the breakfast, the facilities, the manager, everything was PERFECT. If you ever visit Sarande, you should definitely stay here. For easy access, I'd advise that you rent a car and follow the sign that says "WINE BAR" to locate the place.
