“Relaxing, quiet experience of rural life next to the seaside in northern Albania”
Amazing host (Mimoza), the place is clean beyond places 10x more expensive. Breakfast for kings, with organic home made butter, milk, vegetabls and fruits from the garden, everything home made, perfect. All this for price that I don't think can be matched by rarely anyone in Albania. My compliments to the owners.

Beautiful house and garden, Mimoza is an amazing host, we felt very welcomed. The area has mostly Albanian tourists, so its anything but mass tourism. We really enjoyed it, thank you!

It was a wonderful stay. The property is located in a quiet area, close to a peaceful, uncrowded beach with good restaurants nearby. Mimoza is a fantastic host – she gave us many helpful tips about sightseeing in Albania. We also learned many interesting facts about the country from her. Delicious fruits and vegetables from the garden were waiting for guests – tasty and organic. The stay indeed exceeded our expectations.

“My stay was peaceful, comfortable, and made even better by a kind and thoughtful host.”
I loved how clean, cozy, and well-kept everything was. The room felt very comfortable and had everything I needed. The host was absolutely lovely — warm, helpful, and made me feel very welcome. The location was perfect: peaceful but still close to everything I needed. You can tell a lot of care goes into making guests feel at home. I’d happily stay here again!

“Outstanding Albanian Farm Stay”
Really looked after me. Allowed me to park my motorcycle in their garden. Kindly arranged for some bottled water for me (I have a delicate stomach). The best salad I ever had - picked freshly from the garden, and a glass of homemade Rakia (like Grappa) arranged at an unbeatable price. Knowledgeable and interesting hosts - friendly fellow guests. Made me feel very welcome. All in all outstanding.

“Wonderful”
There are two rooms for guests. Each room has a separate kitchen that’s very convenient, because after cooking there are no smells in the bedroom. I saw a comment in the reviews, that the shower pressure is low, all the hotels Radisson have exactly the same water pressure, but the price per night is completely different… I have long, thick hair and I didn’t have any problems with the shower 🚿 The internet connection is perfect 👍 Everything is purest. Mimosa and her family are very friendly, tactful and hospitable. They sent us vegetables and fruits (you can see my photo). We felt like we were visiting our family 🥰 We had a really great time in the house! Thank you and best wishes from Switzerland 😘

“Bravo.”
It was a very warm welcome. Many host in the region did not speak English. But here yes. It is easy for the Czech (read Slavic) people to communicate in the Balkan with the locals in their own language. Except Albania. So that it is important that the host speaks English.

Even though we couldn't stay longer, we as a family enjoyed our stay at Mimi's. You could find anything necessary for a pleasant vacation. The beach was not to far, very quiet place, the room is comfortable and we felt like home.
