Villa Qendra

The restaurant, X crave, was amazing. The pizza was delicious, the seafood fresh, and everything came freshly cooked and piping hot. We ordered the linguinie fruta deti several times and loved it every time. If you like pepperoni pizza, the diavola was even better than any pepperoni pizza I've had, though it's spicy and not a conventional pepperoni. Staff were friendly and accommodating with us English speakers, and helped when translation got tricky. Our family stayed a week. The room/villa wasn't anything over the top, and I wish the mini split AC were stronger, though that isn't a thing here. That was the only real negative. Inside it got warm in the heat of the day but wasn't unbearable. The area was clean and kept up. The kitchen could use more utensils and plates, but it wasn't a big deal. The pool was clean and brisk, with plenty of lounge chairs and umbrellas. It's large, with a small circular shallow spot for kids or lounging, not a whirlpool or hot tub. I think the deep end is about 5ft. You can walk to the beaches, with plenty of other food nearby, plus a few markets and several exchanges. Parking is at a premium around there, but the hotel has its own small lot inside the fence, which made coming back from outings less stressful. 15/10 would return.
