Valta

Vlorë County · Albania

At the western end of the bay.

Qeparo has two halves. The old village, Qeparo i Sipërm, is a stone settlement on the hillside about two hundred and seventy metres up. The shore settlement lies below it along the pebble beach, and Valta is at its western end, where the promenade runs out.

Arriving

Nearly everyone drives. The SH8 runs inland of the shore settlement, about 270 metres behind the hotel at its nearest; a turning drops from it straight down to the water and the last 300 metres are the whole of it. The old hillside village is not on that route. Himarë is about twelve kilometres back up the same road as the rest of the coast’s hotels.

Questions

01How far is Valta Hotel from the beach?

It stands on the beach. The mapped edge of Qeparo Beach lies about fourteen metres from the seaward wall of the building, and the hotel's own parasols and loungers are set out on it. Only a paved promenade separates the two, so guests walk from their room to the water without crossing a road.

02Is dinner included at Valta Hotel?

Yes. Every room type the hotel publishes is sold on half board, which is buffet breakfast between 08:00 and 10:00 and buffet dinner between 19:00 and 22:00, both served at Daphne by Valta. An à la carte lunch and an à la carte dinner are also available.

03Does Valta Hotel have a swimming pool?

There is a seasonal outdoor saltwater pool with loungers around it, open to all ages and included in the rate. It sits between the building and the beach, so you can see the bay from the water.

04Where exactly is Qeparo, and is it the same as Himarë?

Qeparo is its own village about eight kilometres south-east of Himarë in a straight line, about twelve by the coast road. It has two halves: the old stone village high on the hillside, and the shore settlement below it. Valta Hotel is on the shore, at the western end of the shore settlement.

05Is there parking at Valta Hotel?

Yes. Parking is private, on site, free, and included in the room rate. No reservation is needed for a space.

06What is the view from the rooms?

Every room type here has a balcony and a sea view over the bay. The rooms sit on the sea side of the building, facing south across the water, and from the Grand Suite the view runs far enough to pick out Corfu.

07Can children stay at Valta Hotel?

Children of all ages are welcome and several room types are built for families, sleeping four or five. There are no cots and no extra beds, so a room sleeps the number of beds it holds.

08When is Valta Hotel open?

The season runs from the beginning of May to early October, so this is a summer house rather than a year-round hotel, and the pool is seasonal. Live rates and availability are held on Booking.com.
