Shëtitorja e Plazhit · Dhërmi · Albania
Stephen Seasidea hotel on the beach promenade, with the sand in front of the door
Four white floors over a pool and its own stretch of Dhërmi Beach. Twenty-nine rooms with balconies, a roof terrace over the bay, and a restaurant terrace under the pergola.
The position
In front, the pool, the promenade, the hotel's umbrellas and day beds, then the Ionian. Behind, the mountain. Between them a new building with wooden floors, oak-slat walls and a balcony on every room — and a location guests score higher than anything else about it.

The hotel in one cut: six levels from the tables on the roof to the edge of the sea, none of them more than a few steps from the next.
