Terrible and awful
Reviewed By RuhiSayyedWe had made our reservation through booking.com for two nights stay and as we clicked confirm booking, immediately deducted the entire funds, while there was no mention of any such deductions and it was almost a month in advance. Though they kept insisting that the same is mentioned in fine prints but failed to show us when asked. We decided to shorten our trip and requested them to cancel the booking, long before the reserved dates to which they flatly refused to refund a single penny saying accounts/finance will have an issue. Anyway, out of much reluctance we decided to visit the hotel and found it overhyped. Rooms are exceptionally small with an awful smell in the rooms. We requested them to change the room after trying to bear with the smell as our daughter complained of it too and we were asked to shift to the adjoining room. All this while, the hotel had only one more room occupied, as informed to us by the reception. So the new room had the same issue and finding it impossible to bear with the smell we decided to check out the next morning and again requested them to refund for at least one night. And they had the audacity to tell us that since we had used the other room for more than an hour or two, they could not sell it to anyone else, all this in an empty hotel. Their attitude was rude, un-accommodating and simply disgusting. I would highly recommend checking many other good hotels with better amenities and polite staff.

Goodbye to Tripadvisor
Reviewed By Compass457687After more than 10 years as a frequent user of Tripadvisor, my conclusion is that it's not a credible platform any more. Here's my story: I stayed two nights at this hotel on August 9-11 with my wife and daughter, as they were then number 3 out of 171 hotels in Sarandë (now even number 2 out of 174, compliments!). After our stay my wife wrote a detailed review with photos, giving the hotel a well deserved 1 out of 5 (I'm generous giving it a 2). A couple of days later she told me her review had been removed. She wrote a new review of which I took a copy and a screenshot, but again it was removed. As I said, I've followed Tripadvisor's ratings for years, ignoring people and business owners claiming Tripadvisor isn't reliable. Apparently I have to admit I was wrong and stop using Tripadvisor. In substance, here's our experience from our stay: 1. Very dirty and untidy: the reception looks like a shabby camping site and unused stuff are piled around and also on the 6th floor (where the best rooms were). 2. No English speakers: majority of the staff doesn't speak/understand English, including in the restaurant, where it would have been mostly important. 3. Terrible breakfast: hardly edible + non-existent service to clean/refill the breakfast board. 4. Lousy service: you'll find yourself waiting for the receptionist to show up, and if you ask around they tell you to sit and wait. Swimming pool is great, but then again, the path to go to the beach (running below the swimming pool) is poorly maintained and dirty. Same goes for the deckchairs around the swimming pool area. As if all this wasn't enough, I was billed twice, not once, first 330€ for the two days on the day of check-in and then again 330€ on the day of check-out. I contacted the hotel afterwards, and this was their answer, with their spelling errors: “As far as we know we haven't charge your card manually at all. Anyway, please sent us the document that verifies the transaction and we will verify it in our system”. I sent a bank extract as evidence but received the same reply again. Had I not then contacted both my card issuer and Booking.com (where you can find reliable reviews about the hotel, N.B.!) I would probably never have got my money back. The most disappointing thing in all this isn't the bad experience of the hotel (unless my review is removed, I'm sure the hotel will refute everything I write, I've seen this with other critical comments, they can't accept any criticism) but the fact that my wife's reviews were removed not once but twice. This cannot have been done by the hotel but by Tripadvisor, without first contacting my wife, nor informing her of the reasons. Because of this, I haven't used Tripadvisor any more during my trips during the past three months. If this review is withdrawn as well, then I just can say goodbye Tripadvisor, you lost my confidence completely.

Just book and go!
Reviewed By OrlandoJuniorExcellent location, just few steps from Saranda ferry terminal, in a quiet street with lots of shops, bars, restaurants, mini markets, tour agencies, ATMs, money exchange and so on. Few minutes walking to main city promenade. Very attentive and helpful staff, quiet surroundings (I slept with balcony doors open and wasn´t bothered by anything). Perfectly clean premises, inside and outside the room. Full breakfast with quality goods. Enjoyed a lot! And the view... ah the view... I could stay there forever! Be aware that there are some feline residents and even some turtles walking around. Felt like in a big fancy beach house. It doesn´t have that hotel atmosphere, very welcoming and charming. I didn´t use but there is a parking lot and an amazing pool. Really glad I choose this hotel for my vacation. Tks Vila Kalcuny team, you were great!

Perfect place to stay in Ksamil
Reviewed By KarenBonavitaMy husband and I stayed 6 nights at Hotel De Luna and were so glad we stayed at this hotel. We walked all around the waterfront and decided we liked this section the best for beachfront and location with access to everything, yet quieter, including access to so many cafes, restaurants, and waterfront walkways. The hotel also has a restaurant next door with very good food, indoor and patio seating, with a view of the waterfront. We stayed on the third floor, room 5 with a private balcony and the view from our room was gorgeous. From the hotel and restaurant, you could watch the sun set each night. We kept the sliders open at night and could hear the sea and feel the sea breeze. The room had a refrigerator, was a good size and spotless. Housekeeping was superb. The bed was comfortable and WiFi the best we’ve had yet in Albania. They supplied blankets in case, and they do have air conditioning if it’s ever needed. This is a family-run hotel and Cimi, his beautiful wife and family obviously take pride in their place. We purchased swim tubes and because the hotel is directly across the street from the sea, we could easily walk across the road barefoot and paddle out in the sea for a couple hours. And the water here is clean and emerald green/blue, so refreshing and fabulous. From the hotel we could easily walk to the bus stop including hopping on the bus for Butrint - Butrint is only about 15 minutes from Ksamil. We both liked Ksamil a lot and we both definitely recommend Hotel De Luna!

Great experience
Reviewed By Elena MWe are a family of four persons and spent 6 days in this lovely hotel; very comfortable rooms, very convenient location; great food; laundry etc. But above all, the best aspect was the hotel staff, waiters, personnel at reception desk and cleaners. They really made us feel like being home.

Stunning views
Reviewed By CLMH_13We stayed three nights at Liro Hotel. The staff was very flexible as we arrived a day earlier than planned. The views from the hotel restaurant, room and beach are stunning. The room is simple with a comfy bed. The bathroom was nice but could use better finishes as it leaked a bit on the floor. Room was cleaned everyday and they also offer laundry service. The private beach is nice. Sun-beds comfortable and provide enough shadow and privacy thanks to curtains. The restaurant has great food, even if it's a bit more expensive than in other places. Quality is top notch and the server Emris (Elvis?) was very friendly! However the rest of the staff did not make a very enthusiastic impression.
