Rezidenca Cekodhima

The spot was wonderfully quiet, with clear water and a calming atmosphere. We stayed for two nights while heading south from Tirana to the Riviera and felt genuinely relaxed. Breakfast was excellent, the staff were lovely, and our balcony was larger than it appeared in the photos. The colourful beach chairs even had an extra shade adjustment over the head. The air conditioning struggled a little, but everything else was great.

Hotel Cekodhima is a convenient base for enjoying the Albanian Riviera. It has parking, clean and comfortable rooms, and a restaurant offering a good range of traditional and Mediterranean food. The hotel sits right by the sea, with lovely views and easy beach access. The staff were friendly and helpful, which made the stay pleasant.

The Cekodhima restaurant team were truly outstanding, easily the best part of the stay. It was our first visit to Albania, and Hotel Cekodhima made it memorable with a spotless room, an amazing view, delicious breakfast, and a clean beach. The staff were lovely throughout. Bring your own beach towels, though, since the hotel towels are only for use in the rooms. We’re already looking forward to returning.

This was my 12th year in a row coming here. The beach is hard to beat, especially in the clear, peaceful mornings, and the sunsets are beautiful too. The hotel provides great service and all the facilities you need, with an amazing atmosphere.
