Zacharias apartments

Albania can be busy in summer, so to find a place that has an excellent location yet is quiet and away from the noise of bars and hustle, is a rare gem. We could walk to the wonderful beach in about 4 minutes, which has all restaurants and bars so you're not far from anything. The rooms are really relaxing, a lovely balcony to take it all in, super air conditioning, as it can get hot in summer, and wonderful hosts Paul and his family took great care of us and their breakfasts are something special to behold. Nutritious and filling. The beds were comfortable ensuring a great night's sleep. They have parking available too. An easy stay. We stayed three nights.

A fantastic place to stay in Livadh. Very comfortable and spotlessly clean, with a nice outlook from the balcony onto the garden. Breakfast was delicious and generous as noted in so many previous reviews. Paul was super nice and hospitable, a great host. Thanks for the wonderful stay.

We hebben 11 nachten verbleven in Zacharias Apartments en hebben een geweldige tijd gehad. Het appartement was brandschoon, modern ingericht en van alle gemakken voorzien. Het ruime balkon was een heerlijke plek om de dag te beginnen. Elke ochtend werden we verwend met een fantastisch ontbijt, met verse producten en heerlijke huisgemaakte baksels. Dat maakte ons verblijf extra bijzonder. De gastvrijheid was uitstekend. Er werd altijd met ons meegedacht en we voelden ons echt welkom. De locatie is perfect: rustig gelegen, maar op slechts een paar minuten lopen van het strand, de beach bars en de restaurants. We hebben enorm genoten van ons verblijf en raden Zacharias Apartments van harte aan. Als we weer naar Himarë gaan, komen we zeker terug!

Rather newly furnished, rooms were cleaned every day, nice balconies to have breakfast and to sit in at night, good breakfast, very quiet neighbourhood. Nice, attentative lady-owner: after the first night she noticed that we used towels instead of pillows (they were so tmunimaginatively high that we couldn't sleep on them (even men developed pains on their necks after sleep)) and changed 3 of the pillows to normal ones (thanks a lot for that!!). Rather close to the beach.

Small ants in the bathroom and in the balcony. Old-looking kitchen (we didn't use it). No AC in the bedroom (just in the kitchen/living room). Dark, unpaved road with a wild boar running around. 30 min before the check-out time they came in to "see the room". Very rude, impolite owner. He met us without the slightest attempt to smile and presented himself as "the owner". When he came to our car to talk upon arrival, I opened the window and our flag fell down on the ground. He (the man) just pointed his finger to it and retreated to the shade to watch me (a woman) to unbuckle my seat belt, to open to door, to get from the car and to pick it up... Requests were forgotten, and messages were not answered. We asked for omlette after the first morning, but we kept being served eggs. We ordered 2 rooms 2 months in advance and couldn't order breakfast for one of them (although all the other rooms were with breakfast included). I wrote a request about it right after booking, and got an answer that it may be OK (as far as I understood the bad English), but it will be confirmed the other day. However, nothing was written afterwards... Upon arrival "the owner" said that breakfast should be paid extra or we may "cancel our booking"... As if 7 people, incl. 3 kids could easily do it... Finally, the nice lady-owner decided to grant free breakfast for almost all of us (thanks for her!).
