Reviews of Guesthouse Mateo

Good view for the sea

All was good only ac filters dirty everything else worked

Everything perfect, clean place, amazing view, friendly people.

Everyone

The gentleman spoke English quite well, was very friendly and helpful. He explained in detail what is where and how to get to places. He gave me a number to his trusted taxi guy, as there are MANY SCAMMERS around. The room had everything, nice shower, cool AC, beautiful view. It was a bit expensive as I could have (should have) gone to Ksamil, where I'd got a room for half the price at that time.

DISTANT: I didn't realize while booking that this is SO FAR from everything! If you have a car - this is no problem. SECURITY: There was only one shortcut route to the beach. Along the path someone had left an aggressive dog guarding their property. This dog would not let anyone pass and even jumped on passing cars. So I didn't get to visit the beach. There were also three horses running free just down the road, less than 100m away from the property. Yes, I stepped on their poop, but I was more worried about the horses as one of them was still little. Maybe it's parents are protective = aggressive. More than this, there really was no room for pedestrians around this area. The main roads had a lane for pedestrians, but it was blocked by overgrown trees and such so I had to jump on the same lane with cars all the time. About this whole place I was thinking how insecure I would have felt, had I been there with my 5-yo daughter! What if you get hurt here? How near is the closest hospital? Next time I'm going to skip Dhërmi all together.

The view was really nice

Getting there was somewhat challenging, and it was quite far from the city center.

We had a fantastic stay at this apartment! The view was absolutely breathtaking, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the scenery. The apartment was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. The host was incredibly friendly and helpful. We truly felt welcomed. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a peaceful getaway by the sea!

The view

The only thing missing in the bathroom was hand soap, but that’s just a small detail. I really recommend this place

Clean and comfortable, very friendly people

Very nice room with an amazing view. Hostes was very friendly and helpful. We even got some lemond and cucumbers from her garden to take with us!

The best was a little hard

The bedroom is quite large, but rather simple in terms of equipments and decoration. The best point is the view, at sunset or even sunrise, it's mesmerising ! The beds were comfortable and the bathroom convenient as well. It's very well located too ! The owner gave us some tips on what to visit and how to go to the beach down the village.

Nothing much, maybe the decoration is a bit sad.

You get exactly what the pictures are showing you, it’s clean and the people running it are very nice. I especially liked the mosquito net on the window, meant I could sleep with the window open. Watching the sunset from the balcony is very pretty!

It’s quite a distance from the beach. If you don’t have a car it’s a 45-60min hike up and down. I really enjoyed that but if you aren’t as mobile it could be an issue.

The view is magnificent. The hospitality here is on the highest level! When I just came, market was closed, so I couldn’t buy any water and tea/coffee. The host brought me all I needed totally for free and gave me a plate of fruits from their garden. Silvi (sorry if I am wrong with spelling) - THANK YOU SO MUCH! It was very touching and helped me a lot. The room was perfectly clean, the bed was very comfortable, the linen was so fresh and the towels were so soft 😍 After arrival I looked at several places I was thinking to stay at. And I am sure that this place was the best choice. It is close to the Old Town. Nice Panorama cafe is in few minutes walking. It takes a little while to get to the beach. But the journey worth it! The view while walking is amazing.

The view from the balcony was stunning. The room was big, and it was about 10 minutes by car from the beach.

The wanter in shower didn't drain properly, and it flooded every time, making even the kitchen and the bedroom wet. There was a wasp nest next to the hotel entrance, and they were attracted by a puddle of mud right next to it. The wasps would fly around us every time we had to open the hotel gate. It’s obviously not the hotel’s fault, but something could be done about it.

Incredible sea view with a lovely balcony (you can practise yoga). The bed is very comfortable. Hot shower. The best deal in the area.

Would be even lovely have a shared kitchen to prepare simple meal. No restaurant nearby is opened in mid Sept.
