Holiday rentals with breakfast in Sarandë

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.

if you’re here in town, this is a great easy spot to stay and there’s a parking spot. host answered quick and it’s a simple place to sleep and maybe cook a small meal, and spend the day exploring.

I had a great time and if I were to return to the area I would definitely consider coming back here. The accommodation is near the center of Permet, there are the main amenities and the location is quiet. Shanas' grandmother welcomed us, a delightful person who speaks only Albanian. There were minor glitches, plumbing issues, and no blinds or curtains for the night. As negligible things , overall the judgment remains very positive . Thanks and see you next time

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.

We stayed one night and it was great ! It was easy to find as it is just up hill with signs pointing you in the right direction. It is a family run business and it really felt like home away from home. We slept well, the widows have mosquitos nets, the view was impeccable and breakfast was delicious. I would 100% recommend Grandmas House to anyone visit for a night or more.

Was a great village of true albania.Very quiet place.Only thing is that you have to drive 10km without asphalt which was ok for me

We enjoyed the accommodation very much. It is in a quiet location, but you can still get to the center of Gjirokastër relatively quickly on foot. The hosts were very responsive and helpful. Breakfast on the terrace was very tasty and satisfying. From the terrace you have a great view of the surroundings, as well as from the balcony of our room. We were able to park in a garage directly opposite the accommodation. We would definitely recommend the place.

Amazing location and host, really clean apartment and right by the beach. Felt really safe and the whole atmosphere of the place just felt like a home away from home. Will definitely be staying here again if I’m ever in Albania. Highly recommend :)

We missed the way to the house, we ended up above the accommodation. We asked 5 women how to get to the house. A lady lived right next door, 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 did not meet Zamira personally, but we did meet 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 on loan. The house is a little far from the center of Saranda, bus connection is nearby... The room with gallery offered us everything we needed. Cleanliness and tranquility. Everything was perfect. When I'm heading back that way, I'll only stay here. Thank you

Shum njer te mir

I had a great stay at Laura’s place Responsive host, Very clean, great location and I loved that I could park my car safely. I highly recommend

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

We lived in the ‚Honeymoon suite, very romantic. Everything is new and pretty much clean. But the very best is Brunas hospitality. She is a warm hearted person always looking for you and your welfare. Traditional homemade Breakfast whenever you ask for. We really enjoyed our 3 day stay. We can highly recommend this place.

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

Excellent stay at Milton's. The guest room matched the photos and description perfectly. No complaints! Responsive and professional host. Excellent breakfast! I recommend it!

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)
