Golden View Residence
The pool terrace at dusk: a crescent moon in a pale evening sky, a pink afterglow along the sea, an island low on the horizon, fan palms and black sun canopies over the loungers

Live rates on Booking.comThe rooms

On the hill above Dhërmi the pool ends at a white rail, and past the rail there is nothing but the Ionian.

A small hotel on the slope, 1.8 km by road from the village and ten minutes' drive from the beach. Most of what a stay here is about happens on the terrace: the loungers along the seaward edge, the pool bar, breakfast by the window, and the light going down over the water.

Three wooden loungers on the pool deck beside a white balustrade, the sea and an island beyond under summer clouds

The orientation table

What lies out there, bearing by bearing.

Mountain viewpoints keep a bronze table that names the peaks around them. This is the same idea for a hillside over the sea: every ray points at a real place, at its true bearing from the hotel, longer the farther it lies.

Due west, 99 km across the strait, is the heel of Italy.

An orientation table drawn from Golden View Residence: rays to 7 places on the sea side of the hill, each at its true bearing, longer the farther away it lies.1 km10 km100 km1234567N

After dark the pool is lit, and on a clear night the moon lights the sea.

The rooms

Mornings

Breakfast by the window, coffee on the terrace.

Breakfast is laid out every morning — a buffet with continental and American choices, with special-diet dishes on request — and it can be brought to your room instead. There is a coffee bar and a pool bar for the rest of the day, and room service.

The breakfast table by the window: cereals, a covered hot dish, tomatoes, cucumber and olives, the hillside outside

Guests on Booking.com score it 9.5 out of 10.

“Exceptional” on the platform's scale. The highest marks go to free wifi (9.9), cleanliness (9.7), comfort (9.7); what guests write about most is the view, the pool and how clean the rooms are kept.
