Pros:

We had a truly wonderful stay and would highly recommend this hotel!

A special thank you to the family who owns and runs the hotel for their warm hospitality and for making us feel so welcome. The entire staff was incredibly kind, friendly, attentive, and always ready to help.

The hotel has a lovely, warm atmosphere that makes you feel comfortable from the moment you arrive. Our room was very comfortable, and the bed was exceptionally comfortable – we slept wonderfully!

The restaurant was another highlight of our stay. The food was excellent, beautifully prepared, and the whole dining experience was fantastic.

Everything about our stay felt welcoming and genuine. You can really see how much care and heart the owners and their team put into this place. Thank you to the whole family and staff for making our stay so memorable. We would be very happy to return!

New, aesthetic and clean hotel in perfect spot in ulcinj
Pros:

Very clean, everything was new and well maintained. I loved the location; its set in an olive grove but just a walk down to the beach or a 5 minute taxi ride to the old city and downtown. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay wonderful. The food was great; the included breakfast was a nice touch. Our room was gorgeous- i think its the queen deluxe suite and has a view of the olive grove and pool) would love to stay again!

Cons:

Nothing i didn’t like-

A special place with a nice vibe set in ancient olive groves.
Pros:

Lovely stone building set in ancient olive groves. Excellent restaurant with a friendly informal vibe. Breakfast on the terrace was a delight. Our eaves room was very spacious with a big comfy bed and good air conditioning.

Cons:

The shower in our room (No. 6) didn’t work properly due to broken parts. We let the hosts know about this so hopefully it will be resolved. The swimming pool was lovely but noise from the kitchen extractors was ever present.

Pros:

A hidden gem amongst the olive trees of Valdanos. A warm welcome from the friendly family. Visar, his father and the staff go out of their way to make guests feel at home. There’s a view of the sea, which can be reached after a brisk walk. Those who don’t enjoy walking can cool off in the swimming pool. The rooms are spacious and equipped with every comfort. The restaurant serves delicious local dishes and offers impeccable service. We can’t recommend it highly enough.

Great spot in Ulcinj for unique scenery, calm and amazing food
Pros:

Lovely renovated farmhouse in the middle of olive trees, barely 10 min drive from Ulcinj. Great location and amazing restaurant on site, extra points for the huge breakfast!

Cons:

It’s more guest rooms rather than a hotel, very informal setting where everyone is more focused on the restaurant. It’s fine and didn’t bother us at all but we quickly realized that when we arrived and it’s worth mentioning

Quiet, small hotel among olive trees
Pros:

The pool does the job! Olive trees around :) Good restaurant on site.

Cons:

It's not a negative - just remember it's far away from the city centre and the beach, so a car or taxi is a must!

Wer naturnahe Entspannung sucht und familiäre Atmosphäre zu schätzen weiß, wird sich hier sehr wohlfühlen.
Pros:

Das hübsche Hotel liegt sehr idyllisch zwischen Olivenbäumen mit Blick aufs Meer. Die Einrichtung ist rustikal und modern zugleich. Ich mag die Optik zwischen Natursteinen und modernen Elementen, alten Olivenbäumen und durchdachtem Interieur.
Das Personal und die Besitzer sind so herzlich.
Auch der Pool ist sehr zu empfehlen, um zu entspannen. Hochwertige und farblich abgestimmte Liegen laden definitiv zum verweilen ein.

Cons:

Fällt mir spontan nichts ein. Ich wäre gerne länger geblieben.

Hôtel de charme avec service impeccable et excellent restaurant
Pros:

Très bel établissement familial de charme au milieu des oliviers multi centenaires, avec un excellent restaurant, qui permet de profiter du coucher de soleil à partir de la terrasse. Le petit déjeuner est excellent et très copieux. Le patron et sa famille sont présents et très attentifs aux besoins des clients. Nous avons même eu la chance de faire un tour en mer sur la bateau du propriétaire qui nous a montré un coin très authentique à la frontière de l’Albanie, avec un très chouette resto plage très local. Nous sommes ravis!

Cons:

Éviter la plage la plus proche de l’hôtel, il y a des plages beaucoup plus belles à 20 min en voiture
