The Stay
A house, and a coastline to slow you down.
Sleeps six. Three king bedrooms, three private baths, plunge pool, shaded veranda, and Drymadhes Beach a minute on foot.
Slow mornings on the veranda, long afternoons on the Ionian.
A luxury villa stay on the Albanian Riviera is not the same choreography as the rest of the Mediterranean. Days are quieter, distances are shorter, and the coast is still genuinely off the ledger. Swim before breakfast at Drymadhes, hike to Gjipe canyon, cross the Llogara pass at sundown — and come back to a private plunge pool, a shaded table for six, and a household that's entirely your own.
Everything the house offers, inside.
Sleeps six comfortably across three bedrooms, each with a king bed.
Walk-in showers with microcement walls and matte-black fittings throughout.
Oak cabinetry, integrated oven, induction hob, dishwasher.
For cooler nights outside the summer season.
Fibre throughout — comfortable to work from if you must.
Open-plan lounge with linen sofa, oak table, and TV.
And everything it offers, outside.
Set into a timber-decked terrace with a sea horizon.
By the pool for reading, resting, or cooling off after the beach.
A long table with sea views beneath the timber pergola.
Couches under cover for sitting in the breeze.
Drymadhes Beach is a short walk from the villa entrance.
Sun loungers and a quiet pebble shore on the Ionian.
The coast, on foot or by car.
A hidden beach reachable on foot through a dramatic limestone canyon.
Pine forests, sweeping coastal views, and one of the great drives of the Mediterranean.
A 19th-century fortress on a slim peninsula, a swim afterwards in still water.
Old stone houses, two small churches, dinner at a family taverna.
