Himarë · Vlorë County
On the coast road, facing the bay.
Himarë runs along a shelf between the Ceraunian mountains and the Ionian, and the SH8 runs along it with the town. Rondo’s is on that road. Everything below is measured from the hotel’s own coordinate.
Each line at its true bearing
- Open water — and nothing else for three kilometres75 m · WSW
- The beach — across the road30 m · SW
- Potami Beach239 m · S
- Maraçi Beach318 m · WNW
- Rruge Vangjel Zoto — the SH8 coast road13 m · SW
Distances are straight-line: to the nearest edge of each beach and of the water, and to the nearest point on the road’s mapped centre-line. Walking a little further than a number here is normal — the road bends.
Two of the rays are named beaches: Potami south along the shore, and Maraçi the other way, towards the town. The promenade and its tavernas carry on past it.

Getting here
By the SH8
The SH8 is the coast road, and at Himarë it becomes Rruge Vangjel Zoto and passes the door. Coming from the north it runs down from Vlorë over the Llogara pass; from the south it comes up from Sarandë. Buses along the Riviera use the same road and stop in the town.
There is no parking at the hotel, so if you are driving, work out where the car goes before you arrive. Arrival is between 14:00 and 16:00, and the hotel asks to be told your time in advance.
