ALLLAMAN

On the SH8, 57 metres above the sea

Llaman is the cove below — its beach, its two car parks and the shore road down to them — and the hotel stands above it on the SH8, in a fold of the coast south-east of Himarë. Set back from the shore, up the slope, with the beach at the bottom of the walk.

ALARRIVING

Getting here, and getting down to the water

By car

The hotel stands on the SH8 itself, the two-lane coast road that runs the length of the Riviera, where it drops through the fold above Llamani Beach. Private parking on site is free and needs no reservation.

From the airport

Tirana is the airport to fly into — Vlora, though closer on a map, has no scheduled passenger service. A little over 220 kilometres by road, four to five hours. There is no shuttle from here, so it is a hire car or an arranged transfer.

On foot, to the beach

Llamani Beach is 710 metres away and roughly fifty metres below the hotel — about 850 metres down the road. Ten minutes going, longer coming back.

Arriving late

Check-in runs to 23:30, so a late drive down the coast is fine. Check-out is the narrow window: 08:00 to 10:00.

Beaches, and the three places to eat and drink down at the shore. Straight lines from the door, not road distances.
