Find 5-Star Hotels in Durres

Wonderful hotel. We stayed from September 19 to September 30, 2024. We didn't want to leave. Upon arrival, it turned out that the room we booked was not available, and they upgraded our room category to the best - a two-room suite of more than 50 meters with a terrace also 50 meters - with sun loungers, a huge umbrella, a dining table and a small table with chairs. And no extra charge! Special thanks to the hotel management for this. The breakfast is very good. Everything is there. Fried eggs, omelettes, pastries, vegetables, fruits, hams, sausages, cheeses, sausages, baked zucchini and eggplants. Excellent coffee of all kinds from the coffee machine. You need to walk a little to the sea about 400-500 meters along a shady alley of thujas - it is pleasant to walk, it smells of pine needles and there is no scorching sun. A wonderful large sandy beach with sun loungers and umbrellas. At the reception they also give out towels or blankets for the beach/pool. Everything is free. The sea has a gentle entrance, it is quite shallow for a long time, but the water is always warm, even after the rain. The location is about 30 kilometers from Tirana and 30 kilometers from Durres. If you want to go see nature/sights, you will need to rent a car. There were 3 restaurants within walking distance: Gambero is the best. The food is purely Italian, and everywhere the same. Equally delicious. Fish, seafood, meat, pasta, pizza, salads. There is homemade wine. Local beer is delicious, although I am not a fan. There is also imported. There is also a restaurant in the hotel itself. The same, but the prices are more expensive. Sometimes it was not open. Shops. There are 3 shops: right around the corner from the hotel (Eco), in the neighboring village of Lura3 (ok) and ”on the dusty road” (the best, the richest selection - there are cheeses, fruits, pates, inexpensive wine, though Italian - local wines were not seen anywhere), you can go through the ”garbage forest”, but it is also very dirty there. I definitely recommend the hotel, it is probably one of the best in this country, if not the best. Good price/quality ratio.

The hotel staff were very warm and friendly from the first moment I arrived at the hotel. They gave me a free upgrade and made sure to show me to my room. The hotel itself is lovely, and the comfort level is just amazing. The breakfast was so good, it even has an omelet station. I highly recommend this hotel what you are looking for a relaxing stay by the Albanian seashore.
