We were worried at first because the hotel is quite far from the bay and staff said a taxi is 15 euros; however, it is a nice walk with lots of shops and restaurants along the way and it didn't take more than a half hour. We got a private taxi back for 10 euros. Hotel is brand new, pool is lovely. Breakfast was excellent. Nice staff. Thank you!

The hotel exceeded my expectations, the cleanliness is amazing. Staff are very friendly and helpful, the restaurant within the hotel also has a good selection of food all reasonably priced and delicious. The pool was lovely, and the private beach with umbrellas and sun beds was beautiful.

Wonderful staff and property! Very clean and well looked after, quiet area at the end of Saranda and is located right in between the town centre and Ksamil. Rooms were tidied very well ( I always inspect for that), we had an issue with a hair dryer but reception gave us an alternative one promptly. All staff were lovely including housekeeping and kitchen aswell. Overall I am very happy with my choice of staying at El Primero!

Staff and management rude when confronted about over charging at the bar because we are British! Got ripped off on every drink as they charged double the prices printed on the menu and then refused to rectify it when we realised. Extremely unprofessional. Its a shame they feel the need to rip people off.

Our stay at El Primero was nothing short of amazing! The hotel itself was immaculate and in excellent condition. Clean and beautiful. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, especially the younger woman behind the front desk! Make sure to ask for beach recommendations! The food was wonderful and the area is great for walking to dinner or dessert!

This relatively new hotel is located at the far end of Sarande, away from the crowd and noise of the main beach which you can drive to. Our room has a balcony overlooking the sea/beach/pool, which we really liked and enjoyed. Breakfast is OK.

It's a bit in the middle of nowhere. You're better off staying in town where everything is because you'll spend a lot of money getting back and forth if you don't have a car. They only serve food during peak season which we were not told during the booking or we wouldn't of stayed there. There is a camp site right next door with campers which is a bit of an eye sore and might be unsafe. Little to no security at night.

I have stayed in various hotels throughout Albania, and this one exceeded all expectations. The rooms were spotless and exactly as depicted online. Similarly, the breakfast was great with a good range of options. I would definitely recommend staying here and booking a room facing the sea! It is outside of the center, but perfectly situated for some relaxation.

3 jours à Saranda
Hôtel très bien dans l’ensemble, la piscine et l’accès à la plage étaient très bien. Hôtel très propre aussi. En revanche le service n’est pas leur spécialité : peu aimables, mal organisés, et la qualité de la nourriture n’était pas à la hauteur du prix.

Fantastisk ophold på El primero
Vi er en familie på 5(3 børn og 2 voksne), som lige har boet 8 dage på dette fantastiske hotel. Personalet var flinke og behjælpelige og både den inkluderede morgenmad og maden i restauranten var virkelig god. Vi havde to værelser, det ene med udsigt til havet(kan varmt anbefales) og et andet og lidt billigere uden havudsigt. Begge værelser og det øvrige hotel var ekstremt rent og pænt med daglig rengøring.

Bra, men litt å forbedre
Hotell var bra men området rundt var langt unna godt. Ligger på motsatt side av centrum Saranda så bil er nødvendig skal du ditt. Frokost er enkel men holder. Middag/lunsj må man styre unna. Renhold og de som vasket var utrolige. De gjordet hotellet!

Trænger du til en dag ved stranden i Sarandë..
Lækker pool område Fin stenstrand med stenbund. Kan skimte Korfu. Gratis brug af liggestole og parasol. Både ved pool og strand. Flot udsigt Stille område Opmærksom på stejl og smal nedkørsel til hotel. Dog med parkeringsmulighed både ude og i garage ved hotel
