One of the best restaurants in the Durres beach area. We'll be back!

Wonderful family hotel, ideally located right by the sea and just a short walk from the city center. The large terrace with its breathtaking sea view is a real highlight. Sun loungers and parasols provided free of charge. The rooms are outstanding: spacious, comfortable, and designed like true suites, with a lounge area and a large balcony. The bedding is excellent. Double glazing and blackout blinds allow for complete darkness, which is greatly appreciated for a restful sleep. Breakfast is generous, varied, and served until 11 a.m., which is perfect for those who enjoy sleeping in. The staff is extremely friendly, attentive, and always ready to help. Their kindness greatly contributed to the quality of our stay — we even decided to extend it with pleasure.

Fantastic wee hotel with spotlessly clean rooms. Buffet breakfast was fine, not elaborate, a simple adequate breakfast. Great coffee. Staff were brilliant, always willing to help, borrowed a brolly ( it was october), exchanged euros for ALL, numerous chats about any topic !!! As well as plenty advice about anything local. Visited in October as season was coming to a close, about a quarter of restaurants/ cafes closed, still ample close to vila lule and all excellent. Lots of shops, cafes etc close for bits and pieces, as a fridge in the room can keep stocked up with water. Walk into Durres is about 45 to 60 mins stroll, half the route is the beach walk then navigate a couple of roundabouts and walk along a road side, some might just prefer to taxi it ! Worth the effort. Get the Vrapon taxi app, works very well. Would definitely stay a hotel vila lule again as a base in Durres

Hotel by the sea. Excellent location with a view to die for. Very nice breakfast and very good service
16.07.2025 Guest
The hotel is situated on the beach front at Durres. We had a large room with balcony and sea view. The air conditioning, which was very necessary in July, worked well. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Nice breakfast in a shaded terrace overlooking the sea. The hotel organised a pick up from Tirana airport which worked well. There is an ATM right next to the hotel if you need cash. There is a convenience store close by for water and snacks. There are plenty of bars and restaurants in both directions along the beach front from the hotel. Verona restaurant 200 metres away has very good fresh grilled fish. Also a Thai Massage place 100 metres away does relaxing massage for an hour for 4000 lek. Overall highly recommended.

The place is nice and clean. The room has everything you need, a fridge, a safe and a good mattress. The hotel is also well located. Though, the worst is almost in front of the hotel : very loud fairgrounds from 5pm to 11:15pm. You cannot relax on your patio during this time or walk along the beach without hearing the music (which are the same every night).

Super place to stay. Owner and the team are very helpful and polite. Rooms are huge and very clean. View is amazing. Breakfast is average but enjoyed. Meals in restaurant were lovely with a wide range to choose from.

Perfectly located hotel on the shores of the Adriatic sea. Is a few dozen meters from one of the main streets of Durres - Independence street and stop riding in the middle of the bus. Two rooms, very spacious, it allows to accommodate up to four guests. Bed in bedroom very comfortable, in other room on the couch uncomfortable to sleep man with height 170+ cm due to restricted with armrests. Have a safe and air conditioning. Wifi is not super fast, but acceptable speed. Bathroom is spacious, clean, problems with hot water and sewage was not a bidet. Loved the Breakfast, everything was delicious, there is something to choose. The staff is very friendly and willing to help, the problems with communication was not, as all staff speak English and Italian. Now the drawbacks. First, in the bathroom, no mini-makeup. There is only liquid soap and all. So shampoo, shower gel and a Hairdryer (if anyone should) bring with you. Second, from a wide variety of provided cushions barely managed to find a couple of more or less soft. The others were hard, and some just stone. Third, the tea at Breakfast was brought exclusively packaged in small cups, and the water there was a little more than half. In fact, on two SIPS. In all other claims not and, in my opinion, he's one of the best in Durres in terms of price-quality!
