Overview
Your Albanian escape begins with a private airport transfer from Tirana International Airport to the coast. You will spend five relaxing nights at Diamar Suites in Durrës, staying in a Standard Double Sea View room with breakfast included. This modern beachfront hotel offers beautiful Adriatic views, comfortable contemporary rooms, and direct access to the long sandy beach — the perfect setting for sun-filled days and relaxed seaside evenings.
After your beach stay, a private transfer will take you to Tirana for your final two nights at the stylish Sky Hotel, located in the vibrant Blloku district. Here you can explore Albania’s lively capital, discover its fascinating history, and enjoy excellent restaurants and rooftop bars before your departure.
On your final day, a private transfer will take you from your hotel to Tirana International Airport for your flight home.
