Guest reviews for Saranda Backpackers
"Very welcoming and has everything to be self sufficient"
"Signs outside to find would help but saying that thoomo was already there waiting"
"Tomi is the loveliest host. It feels cozy like you're just a guest in his house. You ask him anything, he'll find a way to help you out! The second common room provides a nice chill area if you need to work or just want to sit and read quietly on the couch. Everything is so close by: the port, the promenade, the cafes."
"It can definitely feel like there aren't enough bathrooms. It's a bit of a quiet space, not that much social aspect but you can obviously just start chatting with people if you want company. I know they organize BBQs but I had to check out that day and couldn't join :("
"Saranda Backpackers is an AWESOME hostel. The owner Tomi makes you feel at home cooking a delicious brekkie and always ready to help if you have questions about anything. Tomi gives great advice on what to do, see, and eat in Saranda and also possible day trips that you can do (which there are many!). The BBQs are especially stellar and a great way to meet people from the histel. The hostel is always clean and the atmosphere is vibrant and social, with people always chatting and chilling on the balcony. Clean bathrooms, 2 different kitchens, a comfortable common room, and veranda give you plenty of space to chill, play card games, have a chat, cook up a nice feed from the supermarket nearby. This hostel sells out fast for a reason and I personally have met heaps of friends for life here. Stop what you're doing now & book this hostel ! 10000% recommend 🤟"

"Good location very close to ferry terminal and beach. No sign on the front door but use Google maps to find, and the staff tend to be around or in cafe below. Liked the balcony and general vibe. Extended my stay longer than intended. Helpful staff with info about buses, would even walk you to the right stop, and organized beach bbq."

Guest reviews
"Great location for getting in touch with a bit of local life and out of the tourist area. In middle of fruit and vegetable garden. We made great salad from the vegetables. There was a nice family restaurant down the road. Recommended and also the private beach by the hotel was the cleanest beach we visited in Albania."
"Lovely welcome from the hosts with offers of coffee and raki! Comfortable room for the night with all that we needed. Had the fish that was on offer in the evening which was yummy. Able to walk down to the boardwalk and monastery. Recommend this place if you are looking for a quiet getaway."
