Holiday rentals with breakfast in Vlorë County

Hidden gem in Gjirokaster, away from the noise, but walkable to the castle and bazaar. House and grounds are just beautiful and the experience of staying in a three hundred year old building is not to be missed. Plenty of beds, two tiny full baths, and an amazing breakfast in the courtyard. Just fantastic. Make sure to follow the markers to Kubeja, as gps gets a little tricky in the neighborhoods.

thank you so much! it was such a nice stay, a helpful and beautiful family. they helped us with bus stations, bikes and local recommendations. the place was clean and really nice.

A very nice apartment, very clean, nice clean bathroom with products. A very good bed where we slept well - a nice welcome, our host very nice and smiling - I highly recommend -

The cottage is cozy. We loved having breakfast on the terrace. Sokol is very friendly, responds quickly. On site we were welcomed by Margarita and treated very warmly. There were problems with the water, which went out for a few hours, but everyone went out of their way to make sure it didn't cause us much trouble and it was taken care of very quickly. We were greeted with grapes and kaki from the garden.

Don't think about it. Just book this place now! This was exactly the kind of place I was looking for. I was staying in Sarande at a hotel prior to booking this place. The hotel was great but I wanted something closer to the REAL Albania. I found it here. I was actually surprised that I found this place on Airbnb. It was old school Airbnb...where someone opens up their home to you and you are able to experience the hospitality of the host or hostess. It's not your typical Airbnb place either. This is a typical family farm that is found in so many places in eastern Europe. It is not the kind of farm you would find in Canada or the US that are hundred of acres in size. The home is situated on about 0.5 acres or 0.2 hectares of land surrounded by the typical rock walls you find surrounding many homes in Albania. What kind of animals do you find here? Chickens, sheep, goats, rabbits and even ducks. Yes, there is a garden for vegetables and grape vines throughout the property. Please don't think this a petting zoo farm... this is a working family farm that provides food for the family and you if you stay here. It is a modest home that has been in the family for many years, it is on a plot of land that has provided the food and shelter for the family for countless generations. I have nothing but enormous respect for the hostess and her family. It was the kind of home that my parents grew up in Ukraine. This is what attracted me to this place. These people are salt of the earth. Humble, happy and proud. Respect. I could write a short book about my stay here. To sum up, it was wonderful. I have stayed at my fair share of Airbnb places, but this is my most favorite place ever. I did not want to leave and I do plan to return and stay much longer than the ~10 days I was there. What are the highlights of my visit? 1. The hostess Alexandra and her dear mother. Real people. 2. Coffee with fresh goat milk every morning. Yes, it's that good. 3. The sunrise in the valley. Breathtaking. 4. The amazing hikes up the mountain and in through the valley. There are so many ruins and hidden cool places to discover. 5. Taking the goats and sheep grazing in the morning. Yes I did that!!! 6. I'm not going to give it all away...book this place and I'll let you discover all the wonderful things here on your own. Alexandra and her mother don't speak English. This was not a problem at all. I downloaded the microsoft translator to my phone. It allows two people to communicate back and forth at the push of a button. It made communicating with the hostess very easy. I had many wonderful conversations with Alexandra and her dear mother many times using this translator. So you will be just fine. Look... this is a farm. It smells like a farm where the animals live and it has bugs...get over it. If you are looking for Disney World or the Ritz Carlton...look somewhere else. This place is perfect the way it is and I will be returning in the near future. The apartment is clean and well equipped. The internet works great. My cell phone worked just fine. It has a great stove for cooking and a washing machine to wash your clothes. It has a TV, but why would you watch TV when you are in such a wonderful environment to explore? There are places to buy groceries to cook food...OR...you can arrange with Alexandra to prepare meals for you each day. That is what I did. Breakfast and dinner. So I didn't have to cook or buy anything extra to survive. It's up to you. I chose to eat home cooked food from the farm...how can you beat that??? There is so much more to say...but... Don't think about it. Just book this place now!

We were welcomed by Anna's mother who even when we didn't speak our language was super nice and available in everything. It was like being at a grandmother's place. There are 3 bathrooms and the kitchen is very large to eat together. Cozy garden with lots of kittens. Top location for getting around the hymare region (the most beautiful for beaches). Away from chaos and the perfect nightlife for those who want a relaxed and cute location. Very good restaurants nearby.

A great place to experience Gjirokaster— close to old city, with a view of the castle. Diana provides breakfast as well. Make sure you reach out before and confirm details for an easy check-in.

This place exceeded our expectations! Such warm and welcoming people and the place was spacious and clean. The hosts made breakfast for us and made us feel at home. I would come back here in a heartbeat.

**Fantastic Stay!** Had a wonderful time at Kelard’s place. The apartment was clean, well-decorated, and had all the amenities we needed. Great location near beautiful beach, amazing pools and restaurants. Kelard was welcoming and responsive. Highly recommend and would stay again!

You can't go wrong with this apartment. The location, the hospitality, the value, I could go on. Mei was helpful and accommodating to our big family. Highly recommend!

Super nice people and helpful best experience ever!

Good apartment near the beaches of Ksamil

The place is very clean and comfortable. It is easy to find thanks attached pictures and park a car (for free). Description of the listing and pictures reflects this place. The bed is huge and comfortable. We spent there 1 night, I recommend this place

We missed the way to the house, we ended up above the property. We asked 5 women, how do we get to the house. Right next door was a lady, she came to help, sat next to me in the car and we drove together to the house entrance. We will never forget this loving help and reception. We didn't meet Zamira in person, but her wonderful mother. She took care of us as if we were part of her family. And her cooking skills at breakfast were simply first class. I even got an iron out. The house is a little away from the center of Saranda, bus connection is nearby... The room with gallery provided us with everything we needed. Cleanliness and tranquility . Everything was perfect. If I will be in this direction again, will only stay here. Thank you so much

Beautiful apartment in the heart of Vlora, very friendly and welcoming host

Very nice accommodation, welcoming and responsive host at all times. Very well located, in a very pleasant environment 3 min walk from the beach. Thank you for everything!

Great stay. Nice rooms that were totally clean. I get my warmest recommendation. The host was really sweet to offer great suggestions on what to spend our time in Albania.

Very friendly stop in Gjirokaster, thank you to our hosts for their warm welcome!

Sweet little room with bathroom. Beautiful and quiet surroundings. Communication went very well. The breakfast was very tasty and homemade! Shampoo and shower gel were not available, but we had some with us. The toilet flush did not work quite as well at the end (there was hardly any water and you had to wait a long time until the next flush). It takes about 35 minutes on foot to the beach, but it is right next to the castle. In my opinion, the small kitchen is not enough for cooking. But there are a few restaurants nearby or on the beach. All in all, it was a good stay and would recommend the accommodation, especially if you want it to be quiet.

Staying at Aphrodite garden was a wonderful experience! The hosts, the view, and the atmosphere was much more than to expect. Definitely, we would recommend a visit :)

Great breakfast included!

We received a warm welcome from Sperios with a glass of Reiki. The property is his family home which has totally been renovated with views across the bay and up to the mountains . My favourite part was breakfast underneath the walnut tree with chickens in the garden . Booked for one night and stayed for three. Spiros did everything he could to make us feel welcome, great host, fabulous scenery, best part of the holiday so far. I wish him All the best of luck with his new venture.

The accommodation: impeccable and really beautiful with beautiful wooden moldings. Very typical and very pleasant. Hosts: I've rarely seen such friendly people. We were lost in the city, they came to pick us up. Always at your service. Really nice people. And they have a great restaurant for cheap at all (+/- 20€ for two people)

Great stay. Stay was a little more difficult to find because address was not completely specific. Room was spacious, clean and tidy, ideal location. Has all amenities It says it included breakfast, this was not the case.
