Pros:

Valbona Relax is more than just a place to stay while exploring the Alps, they became our second home during our stay. This getaway place gave our family of three the best unplugged experience and walk into nature and present moment fun I could ever ask for and the folks at Valbona Relax played a huge role in making this a trip of a lifetime. Yes! The rooms were well appointed and clean. Yes! The grand property was immaculate and beautiful. Yes! Its location right on the river priceless. Yes! The food was excellent with fresh produce, homemade breads, and eggs from their chickens. But Valbona Relax is so much more than that when you stay. It is the people that work and live there.

Robert is a gem to get to know as a person and very open to share about his life in Albania and helped us with where we wanted to hike and explore. He was a good buddy chatting and caring with my children with an endearment that matches how he views his little sister that just turned 2. I'd watch this guy go from hanging out with us, to getting back into server mode, and in between see him run off to wheel barrel sacks of grains from one end of the property to another. All with grace.

Ardin, probably the most energetic "outside the box" thinker, doer of all things and genuinely passionate about everything he puts his hands to. This guy, let me tell you, their bees decided to escape their boxes and swarm the field, making their way to a tree for mating. We watched as Ardin put on his bee hat, move his truck to the tree and adventurously climb atop with a box and shake them back into their boxes. With a twinkle in his eyes and grand smile on his face. Ardin also helped negotiate a ride to the base of Rogram Waterfall Trail, but gosh darn it, he decided he would take us there himself with that same little truck. All along the way, pausing the truck to say hello to his friends, his bestie that builds the gutters and walls along the strip.

Je recommande à 100% !!!
Pros:

L’emplacement est exceptionnel, nous avons eu une chambre avec un petite terrasse donnant sur la rivière, le personnel est très agreeable et réactif, vraiment un super havre de paix.
C’est tres propre et les equipments sont en bon état et fonctionnels.

Cons:

Une seule petite fausse note mais pour certain cela peut être important, nous avons eu une chambre dans l’avant dernier chalet celui qui est presque le plus éloigné du restaurant et de là-bas nous ne pouvions pas capter le Wif.

שהות מאוד חוויתית
Pros:

ארוחה מלאה ואפשר היה לקבל תוספת ובנדיבות רבה , צוות חייכן, שירות מהיר בקשנו מבעל המלון לטייל כ- 4 שעות בסביבה ,הוא העמיד לרשותנו את הרכב עם אחד העובדים שהיה דובר אנגלית והכיר את הסביבה . ביום למחרת בקשנו לטייל באחד השבילים המוכרים ,בעל המלון לקח אותי ברכבו ללא תמורה והראה לי את תחילת המסלול ובדרך הראה עוד מקומות מעניינים והסביר את דרך הגישה מהמלון .הילדים היו מאושרים לשהות במתחם של המלון .

Cons:

חבל שבחדר אין מזגן

Schöner Aufenthalt für mehrere Tage geeignet
Pros:

Großzügige und saubere Anlage. Zimmer im Blockhausstil mit eigenem Außenzugang. Geräumige und saubere Zimmer. Badezimmer etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig, da es eigentlich keine abgetrennten Duschbereich gibt. Personal freundlich und hilfsbereit. Eigene Parkplätze. Restaurant mit ausreichend Auswahl, Reichhaltiges Frühstück.

נוף מושלם מכל כיוון ,על גדות נהר ולבונה
Pros:

מקום אירוח בלב הטבע, 360 מעלות של נוף הרים מהמם והבונוס הוא המיקום על גדות נהר ולבונה . ביוני זרימה יפה של מים בנהר.
יש פינות ישיבה בחוץ לצד הנהר, ניתן להיכנס לטבילה בנהר .
מקום של שקט ושלווה להטענת מצברים.

Cons:

במקום יש מסעדה, לוקח זמן עד שהמנות יוצאות

I AM RETURNING TO ENJOY MORE
Pros:

THE RIVER! Wow what an INCREDIBLE LOCATION. What is there not to like. This space is one of the most peaceful and tranquil spaces I’ve had to visit. Although the rooms are humble and traditional they are clean and elevated. The location is amazing and the land is incredible. It’s family run and the attention to detail is next to none. This place is so magical and as a solo traveller I had such a wonderful time. I loved the food and just can’t wait to come back.

Cons:

That I couldn’t stay for longer
