    Nothing to complain. Only when you want city life i wouldnt recommend, its a small city and not much to do. Also min 20-35 min walking to the city. 10€ by taxi to get to the center.

    The view and private space at the water is amaaazing, just like the pictures!! It was fully booked but still soooo many day beds always availeble.

    Nothing it was idyllic.

    Calm, tranquil few days, if your looking to slow yourself down this is the place for you. Everything you need is here, bar, snack bar, delicious local homemade food and family, friendly owners. Helped arrange a lift to the port. Let us stay until late afternoon using the facilities until our departure.

    There was nothing bad about the property. We found it really lovely.

    It was very homely and the staff were super lovely! They always went above and beyond. The location is also perfect, as it’s in a quiet area and restaurants are a close drive away. Breakfast was good too, and portions sizes are generous. Honestly, a really lovely stay at this family run hotel.

    Because the location was out of the city, there were no nearby amenities without a decent walk.

    Great location because it is a little more secluded. Stuff was super nice and friendly, great family! Breakfast was super nice every morning too.

    Nothing negative to say! ☺️

    So many wonderful things about this property, not sure where to start! 1) The location is on the outskirts of Sarande on a peaceful stretch of coastline, so it’s perfect for anyone looking for a quiet and peaceful location which is in walking distance of central Sarande (15 min walk) and a good base for exploring the surrounding areas by car. Parking is available outside the villa. 2) It has its own private beach with loungers and umbrellas available to guests for free. Beautiful natural view with easy access to the ocean which is perfect for a swim anytime of day. 3) Stayed in one of the newly renovated deluxe rooms which was beautifully decorated - very modern, spacious and clean. We had a large balcony overlooking the ocean with views of Corfu. 4) Great value for money, especially with breakfast included in the price. 5) Breakfast is different everyday and was honestly one of our favourite parts of our stay. Looked forward to it every morning! We also had dinner at the property several nights simply because the atmosphere, food and value for money was excellent. Also meant we got to enjoy the sunset at the property. 6) They have cats! If you love animals like us, you’ll love the handful of cats that have called the strip of properties down this coastline home. The owner was also hand rearing a baby goat that made appearances every morning and evening for his dinner which was so adorable. 7) Last but not least, the family that ran the property. They are so hospitable and kind and made you feel so welcome. Can’t thank them enough for such a lovely stay! Definitely recommend this place to stay for anyone visiting the Albanian riviera in the future.

    The room was quite humid making the bed feel like it was wet when lying on it or the clothes

    We loved our stay at Villa Xhefri. The staff were 5*. We were supposed to arrive at around 4pm but with late flights ended up arriving at 10pm and they allowed us to check in late and provided us dinner. The room was very clean and had a great view of the sea. It was a little far away from centre but we were aware of this and this was what we wanted. A little peace and quiet. Breakfast was not buffet it was served to you and for me this was perfect. It felt every day I was there I had a healthy breakfast to start my day.

    Unable to pay by card, you will need to take cash. Not exactly walkable. It is slightly underexplored, has amazing potential.

    The property is hard to locate from the street as it is quite hidden, the access to the rooms is atypical as you do not have your regular reception area. However, it has the most stunning views and is extremely familiar and cozy. The breakfast is simple, but different throughout the days so you don't always get the same thing. Rooms are extremely spacious and the private beach is amazing. Only a 5 minute car drive to the center of Sarande where there are many restaurants and food options.

    We had the shower head basically above the toilet. Since everything was super clean, that wasn’t a big issue though. The location is great in terms of the beach, the walk to town though can be a bit daunting when It’s warm and humid.

    The hotel is such good value for money, the beach is stunning, staff is lovely, the room was super clean and comfy.

    Our room was a bit dated, but all very functional and comfortable.

    Great location a little out of the main town so it feels quiet and private. There’s also private access to the water so you don’t have to leave the property to go for a swim.
