The way in

A vine over the steps, geraniums on the rail.

The building is rendered in sand, with white balustrades along every terrace. A grape vine is trained over the entrance steps, the stairs are lined with pots of flowers, and the ground floor opens onto a stone-paved courtyard.

Questions

Asked before booking.

How far is Himara Apartments from Spile Beach?

Spile Beach is about 250 metres away in a straight line, a few minutes' walk down the slope through Spile, the part of Himarë that runs along the bay. Maraçi Beach is about 400 metres away and Prinos Beach about 750 metres, so three different beaches are within walking distance of the apartments.

How many people can stay in one apartment?

It depends on the unit. The double studio sleeps two and the two studios sleep three or four. The two ground-floor one-bedroom apartments sleep five and six, the one-bedroom with a sea view sleeps five, and the 125 m² two-bedroom with a sea view sleeps nine, which suits two families travelling together.

Do the apartments have a kitchen?

Yes. Every unit at Himara Apartments is self-catering. The studios have a kitchenette and the larger apartments a full kitchen, each with a stovetop, a refrigerator, an electric kettle and kitchenware. There is no restaurant in the building, so guests cook for themselves or walk down to the cafés and tavernas of Spile.

Which apartments have a sea view?

Three unit types have a balcony with a sea view: the 20 m² double studio, the 110 m² one-bedroom apartment and the 125 m² two-bedroom apartment. From the upper floors the view runs over the terracotta roofs of Spile to the open sea, and the sea-facing balconies and terraces look out towards the sunset.

Is there parking at Himara Apartments?

Yes. Free private parking is available at a site close to the building and does not need to be reserved in advance, and there is street parking nearby as well. The apartments are a few minutes' walk from Spile Beach, so the car can stay parked for most of a beach holiday in Himarë.

What are the check-in and check-out times?

Check-in is between 13:00 and 22:00, and the hosts ask to be told your arrival time in advance, which you can do in the special-requests box when you book. Check-out is by 10:00. Luggage storage is available if you arrive early or leave late, and check-in and check-out are private.

How do I pay, and can I bring a pet?

The apartments are reserved on Booking.com, and payment at the property is in cash only, so bring enough cash to Himarë to settle the stay. Pets are not allowed. Children of all ages are welcome, though no cots are available, and children aged four and over are charged as adults.

Can the hosts arrange an airport transfer?

Yes. An airport transfer can be arranged for an additional charge, and laundry is also available for a fee. The hosts speak Greek and English. Himarë sits on the SH8 coast road between Vlorë to the north and Sarandë to the south, and the apartments are in Spile, close to the town centre.
