Reviews of Hotel Amare 5 stars

- Super nice host and personnel - Great swimming pool - Nice view

- Limited food choice for breakfast and lunch/dinner but still fine

Fantastic view , the place was very clean, i had an electric car and there was a charging spot for that too, The staff were friendly and polite.

We absolutely loved the infinity pool overlooking the sea near Dhermi—easily the star of the show. Poolside service? Spot on. Breakfast? Quite good. And the staff? Exceptionally helpful (the kind you secretly wish you could take home). The hotel itself sits high on a hill, and the views from up there are nothing short of stunning. Honestly, we were thrilled we didn’t stay down by the beach—too humid, too crowded, and way too many people competing for the same patch of sand.

We couldn’t quite figure out why the room didn’t have blackout curtains—seems like such a simple win. A couple of bottles of mineral water in the room would’ve been a nice touch too, especially for a place that’s otherwise top-notch. It would also be great if the hotel offered a little perk, like a discount on at least one dinner. Breakfast was good… aside from the bees, who clearly thought they were paying guests. And while the rooms were comfortable, just a bit more space would’ve made them perfect.

-Inifinity pool -There is parking -Room was OK -Staff is friendly

-Breakfast is bad (very limited choices). They need to fix that. -Location is bad -> steep two way road with a width of a one way road (have to drive carefully) -Need to take stairs to reach most of the rooms of the hotel -Because of the location you will not want to go out to Dhermi often

The beach is a bit far from the property

The pool is quite nice, exactly as depicted in photos Free parking The staff are friendly and keen to help if you ask

We booked the 'balcony room' without sea view and the overall experience was extremely disappointing given that this hotel is marketed as an "art of luxury" hotel on their website, and expensive for Albanian standards. At best, it is an unfinished construction site: - The room gives onto a 3 meters raw concrete wall, which hasn't been painted and blocks the entire view (see photo, this was conveniently saturated out in their official photos) - The bathroom has zero ventilation (a tiny window which can't be opened and no fan) which means it is constantly humid, furthermore it has poor plumbing. Our shower clogged twice in our 4 days stay. - There is no complimentary water in the room, not even glasses to drink from or a box of tissues (not something you expect at a "luxury" hotel) - The room was never kept during our stay (towels are not changed either unless asked). There is not even basic room service. - The breakfast has limited choice and the restaurant is overpriced as per Albanian standards. The amount of wasps in the eating area makes it impossible to enjoy eating in peace - Staff is keen to help if asked but not trained properly. We were very disappointed as this hotel is expensive and is nowhere near the standard you would expect at this price point.

The food, staff, location, pool

Communal and pool area was nice although felt smaller than the photos Staff were friendly and giving out shots Comfy sunbeds

‘Delux double room’ was a let down with the ‘balcony’ opening out onto a concrete wall covered in pipe work. Half the rooms are in a separate building across the road which didn’t feel like part of the hotel and you have to walk up 5 flights of stairs to get to (not ideal in the heat). Breakfast was a bit chaotic if you came down after 9am (even though it should have been from 8-10am) and lots of the items were cold or under stocked and with warm orange juice.

We stayed for three nights at Hotel Amare, near Dhermi in Albania, and had an exceptional experience. The view from the hotel is absolutely breathtaking – a stunning panorama of the mountains and sea. The hotel staff was friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help. Every request was met with a smile and prompt service. Julian, the hotel manager, was especially kind and helpful. He made sure we felt comfortable, assisted us with anything we needed, and even helped us arrange a wonderful beach tour from Dhermi. The pool was very clean and well-maintained, and the view from it was incredible – we didn’t want to leave! Since the hotel is located on a hillside, there are some uphill walks, but the hotel offers convenient buggy rides to and from the rooms, which made it easy.

The shower in the room was open, with no curtain or door, which was slightly inconvenient, but manageable. Additionally, we had a minor clog in the bathroom that was resolved quickly and efficiently by the staff.

Amazing hotel with a beautiful Infinity pool. The hotel is situated in a beautiful place- feels like south of France, when you take the road to reach it . All brand new with very beautiful Standards. Comfy bedsovely rooms and spaceful balcony. Totally a super positive surprise. The staff: amazing 😍 friendly and helpful

Nothing

If I could give more than 5 stars, I absolutely would! Hotel Amare in Palasë exceeded every expectation. From the moment we arrived, the attention to detail was evident — everything was spotless, beautifully maintained, and thoughtfully designed. The cleanliness was impeccable, and every corner of the hotel felt fresh and welcoming. The food? Absolutely delicious! Every meal was a highlight, showcasing fresh ingredients and authentic flavors. But what truly set this place apart was the hospitality. The owner went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect, kind, attentive, and genuinely invested in making our experience memorable. It’s rare to find a place that combines such high standards of service, comfort, and charm. Hotel Amare has become one of my absolute favorite places in Palasë. A hidden gem I can’t wait to return to. Highly, highly recommended!

Everything was perfect

The view was stunning, the staff were very friendly, everything was spotlessly clean, and the bed and pillows were super comfortable. The air conditioning was silent and effective, breakfast was fresh and delicious, the pool was clean and relaxing, and there was plenty of convenient parking. Last but not least - really family friendly and welcoming to kids.

Honestly, nothing to complain about—we only wish we could have stayed longer!

- location offers nice views, quiet area on mountain (be aware that you need a car) - friendly staff - good breakfast and coffee - nice pool with pool towels - nice exterior / bar area

- cleanliness and maintenance need to improve - water bottle would be great - not much space in bathroom - too expensive for what you get / compared to others

Up on top of the mountain overlooking the Ionian Sea with a fabulous view and an infinity pool. We had great cocktails at the pool. We had a delicious dinner, and the breakfast was great. The room was large, modern, and clean with a balcony. This is a family-run operation. They are welcoming and work hard, catering to your needs. We look forward to returning in the future.

Found my perfect spot for the summer vacations in Albania! Amare really exceeded my expectations! The room was spotless and stylish, the staff were incredibly warm and attentive, and the location was perfect. I especially loved the relaxing atmosphere and delicious food including here the breakfast buffet, which was a highlight, fresh and diverse unlike anywhere else in south of Albania. Highly recommend for a comfortable and memorable stay!
