You need to book this hotel! A wonderful hotel with fantastic staff. The pool was amazing, the food delicious and cocktails always hit the spot! The hotel also has a private beach which is a very short walk through the grounds and is clean. Only downside was the beach bar was closed during our stay which was a shame.

Mid size hotel with an interesting and elegant design. Overall we had a good stay, staff is friendly for most of them, but unexperienced. I found breakfast disappointing: baked products were **always** dry (bread, waffles, pancakes) besides the muffins. I would remove the juice because they do not taste real, it's not pleasant. Ham, jams and chocolate seem of low quality too. Finally, I would suggest to cover and put in a refrigerated area the meat, cheese and the butter because over time these products deteriorate. Prices for lunch is high for the quality and wine is overpriced.

The hotel is quite small which is a bonus. Some rooms on tbe ground floor have direct access to the pool . Its design is modern but not cold. Our standard double room was not big, it had a spacious bathroom though. The hotel is beautifully situated 5 min from the sea through a walk amidst pine trees. The beach is amazing - wide with soft sand and very quiet. There are sunbeds with umbrellas on the beach. I loved it. The hotel has a free underground parking too. A really nice place

Excellent stay at Elite Bay Hotel. Excellent stay with my wife in late May, our first time in Albania. Everything was absolutely great, the staff, hospitality, service, food, wines, breakfast, room and the lovely pool. The beach just a two minute walk from the pool is really worth mentioning, reaching around an amazing 10 kilometers. Also interesting with the old military fortifications from the iron curtain era along the beach. There’s a private beach area for Elite Bay Hotel with free sunbrellas, sun loungers and beach towels for the guests. The beach bar is small but cozy, and there’s even clean and proper WC’s just behind the beach bar. The historical city of Durrës, dating back to 627 B.C. is definitely worth a visit. A cab fare is around 40 euros. Go and see the centrally located Roman Amphitheater from the 2nd century, the Venetian tower from the 14th century and Durrës Blvd with lots of shopping and bars. We usually never go to the same place twice, but in this case we may well consider it, top notch!
