The view and hospitality

Stayed in May 2024

We had a wonderful stay at Artemis' hotel in Himare, Albania. She was an excellent hostess, attentive to our needs throughout our visit. The view from our room was simply phenomenal, offering exceptional tranquility. Every aspect of the room, from the bathroom to the terrace, was meticulously clean and beautifully finished. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway.

None!

My partner and I had an amazing stay! Prior to our arrival, Artemis sent me recommendations for places to eat and tours and helped us coordinate a boat tour. Our room was comfortable, clean and literally on the water…the sound of the water was so relaxing. The hotel was a short walk to the main promenade with restaurants and bars, however we opted to eat breakfast at the hotel because it was a great view of the water and city and had delicious options, including traditional pancakes! Will definitely stay here again if we travel back to Himare!

Artemis was a kind host who went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable. She had the best recommendations for things to do and places to eat. This was, in my view, the best property in the town of Himara. Having travelled in Europe extensively, haven’t ever experienced a property where you are literally on water.

Delightful window seat right by the water, super close to the main beach strip with cafes and restaurants. Our wonderful host Artemis helped so much, and booked us onto a great boat trip.

We couldn’t recommend Artis Blue enough, it was an absolute dream. From the moment we arrived Artemis was super friendly and helpful, she made our stay extra special. The room itself was as beautiful as the photos and really clean. The bed was comfortable and we loved the bath and extra little terrace area. Being able to sit right on the waters edge was amazing. We also had breakfast upstairs one morning and it was delicious and great value for money. If I’m ever back in Albania I will be staying again, thank you!

The location, the room and the view were simply perfect. Artemis was really atencious all the time with us, we really felt like home. I would give more stars if I could. Waking up with the ocean just underneath our feet was the best!

Absolutely nothing - it was perfect! Asgjë - ishte perfekt!

Artis blue relax is in the most special & beautiful location. Our stay there was sensational. Artemis, the host, provided the most comfortable and enjoyable stay. She is generous and makes you feel so welcome and at home. All the little touches made the stay even better. So much so we extended our stay. We felt so lucky to stay here and will remember it forever! (And hopefully go back!) Artis blue relax është në vende shume e veçantë dhe shume e bukur. Qëndrimi ynë atje ishte i perfekt. Artemis ofroi qëndrimin më të rehatshëm dhe të këndshëm. Ajo ju bën të ndiheni shume të mirëpritur dhe në shtëpi. Të gjitha prekjet e vogla e bënë qëndrimin edhe më të mirë. Aq shumë e zgjatëm qëndrimin tonë. Ne u ndjemë shumë me fat që qëndruam këtu dhe do ta kujtojmë përgjithmonë! (Dhe shpresojmë të kthehemi!)

We struggled to find the place as its under a separate hotel but Artemis was waiting for us in the street to guide us to the accommodation.

Artis Blue is in a very unique position in this town. You are basically sleeping with water lapping at your door. New, modern comfortable room. Artemis (host) is amazing and nothing is too hard. She even did our laundry!!!! Parking also provided in a difficult to park town which is a bonus. Thanks to Artemis and family for making this stay a memorable stay. Highly recommend

The fact I had to leave 😅

A gem of a place in Himare. This property is unique for various reasons be it cos of the structure, design and decor and also because of the owner. Arto does not only make sure that everything is up to standard but goes out of her way to make it a memorable stay; this makes the place feel even more special; a home away from home.

Everything. Perfection.

Nothing!

Beautiful setting, right on the edge of the sea, close enough to the restaurants and bars but far enough away to feel secluded. Excellent host too, she couldn’t do enough for us and we really appreciated it! She recommended a boat trip which was a real highlight.

Amazing views, stunning facilities and a perfect location but the best bit was how kind and attentive Artemis was throughout the entire trip. We felt so looked after, she went above and beyond. We can’t thank you enough. Can’t forget the personal touches like the three pink robes for our girls trip and the flowers in the stand alone bath tub with view across the sea - don’t stay anywhere else in Himare!

Beautiful property, staying there felt like a dream. Very clean and comfy, and the host was extremely kind and helpful!

Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous location and property. The room itself was spacious and well designed. Staff was welcoming, kind and responsive. I would highly recommend this property in Himare.

Great host and beautiful appartment with everything you could ask for. Close to restaurants, supermarkets and everything you need. We will be back!

Nothing.

Spotlessly clean and well thought-out, and in a gorgeous location - one can reach down and touch the water from their front door. Artemis is such a kind and welcoming host. You can tell that she put her heart and soul into every detail. Would love to come back and stay longer.

Everything was perfect and nice! Will definitely come back!

Nothing.

Staying at Artis Blus is like staying at home, but with all additional comfort. Artemis takes care of us like family, but she also takes care of every detail, offering high quality products, brand new towels and bed sheets and everything as first class. It is conveniently located with easy access to the boats' tours and restaurants, but it is still calm and silent. Be sure to book with Artis Blue and not with the other hotel located upstairs. And be sure to ask for a boat tour with Markus. He is a local fisherman and being with him and Artis Blue is also a way to learn and give more value to local people, despite still sleeping as kings.

One of the most beautiful rooms we have ever stayed in. The doors opening straight out on to the water were absolutely idyllic. The room was spotlessly clean with lots of lovely touches and the host was quick to communicate and really helpful. Breakfast upstairs was also brilliant. I can’t recommend Artis enough and wish we could have stayed another night. I’d also recommend hiring kayaks to explore the other bays nearby.

Everything was amazing

It's the most amazing stay I've ever had! The owner is so nice and it was very easy to communicate with her. The place itself is a hidden gem. We loved it the moment we got in and we extended our stay for one more night. You get the feeling of being at home far from home! I highly recommend this place!

Everything was great!

This beautiful small hotel is well situated next to the beach - You can actually touch the water from your room's window (and I mean it!). Your room and bathroom are very well equipped for a great holiday in one of the most exiting places to visit in Albania. You can enjoy (for an extra payment) a great and diversified breakfast, offering a lot of options, and served on the sunny and beautiful balcony that looks directly into the sea and the small harbor. Most important, your host, Artis, offers a great and generous hospitality and guiding. This is a highly recommended place.
