〰️ Much like the villages, the beaches, and the sea in this region, the hotels in the South of Albania are among some of the best and most beautiful in the Mediterranean. But if you prefer to go it alone and live like a local, the Vlora region is equally well equipped to offer a private country homestay as well.

〰️ In fact, renting a villa (or a house) here is one of the best ways to truly get under the skin of charming towns and villages. Choose from a home surrounded by olive fields or a sprawling villa right on the Albanian Riviera.
