    There is very little we didn’t like. The only suggestion would be if travelling with children consider the safety element of them sleeping on the mezzanine, the access to ladder does not have railings and needs to used carefully.

    Alex and his wife are exceptional hosts. They make you feel so welcome, it was like visiting friends rather than staying in a hotel. Food is very good, specialises in fish. The lodge has a fabulous view of the lake. We didn’t have a hire car, the hosts lent us 2 bicycles which we used to cycle to Shiroka and swim in the lake and into central Shkoder. Although positioned above an averagely busy road you don’t notice this. Alex and his wife are hugely helpful, they even gave us a lift to meet our ongoing transport. The lodge is comfortable with AC, fridge, TV and Eggs chairs to enjoy the view.

    Suggestion :a fan at 1st level would be good to mix the ambiant air and the air cond. But all is perfect.

    The view, the owners Alex and Claudie are very kind and at your service, give fruits and smiling. The house is very original with a great view, a lot of parking. The air cond is well fonctionning. We saw wild turtle in the parking. The breakfast is very good, salty the first day and sweet the second day. Alex restaurant is very convenient, good and i recommend. For the sunset, the terrasse in front of the house is perfect.

    I stayed here for just one night, but the place left a very warm impression on me. The sunset was especially memorable — it was beautifully visible during dinner, right from the terrace overlooking the scenic Lake Shkodra. The food was delicious and felt homemade with care. The hosts were incredibly kind and welcoming. I had to leave very early in the morning, and the hostess thoughtfully packed me a breakfast to go: a pancake, fresh fruit, and homemade strawberry jam. It was such a touching gesture. Thank you for the cozy atmosphere, attention, and hospitality!

    10 euro taxi ride to Shkoder. We were unfortunate that it rained both times we stayed here, which was loud on the roof. It was particularly loud Storrm on the second night. This was no fault for the accommodation and I would recommend it due to the amazing staff.

    Great views and amazing staff. Alex's family were lovely and friendly and happy to help. Lovely breakfast with a great choice.

    The only con that you should be aware of is the proximity of a road, with quite big traffic. The villa is not soundproof so you will definitely hear it, but honestly it did not bother us. The traffic gets lighter as the night approaches. Also the shower is lacking an adjustable head, only a fixed one from the top is available. But honestly everything was great, these are just small things to know or maybe improve.

    We have arrived at the accomodation just at sunset, and the view was magnificent. Skoder lake, behind the mountains with the sounds of the wildlife at the lake, truly wonderful. The owner was very kind, attentative, hospitable, she even brought us some wine and strawberries one night. The terrace has some comfortable seating possibilitites and it is quite nice to spend the evening there with the view. The villa was well-equipped, the bed was comfortable, good wifi connection. Be aware, only cash is accepted, but euros/leks are both fine. The breakfast was also a big portion and very tasty. We loved our stay here, and would not hesitate to come back.
