  : If you are looking for a quiet accomodation in the crowded and noisy Ksamil / Saranda, this is the place for you. 10-15 mins walking distance from downtown, you will get peace, silence (or very soft music), very good food (among the best breakfasts and dinners we had in Albania), very friendly and helpful staff (Rida speaks fluently English and Italian). All in all, great value for money. Rooms are very big, as well as the bathroom. Parking is very easy. The restaurant area is very pleasant so you will be likely to spend long time there relaxing yourself ......
  : Shower is "open", without curtains (well, this is quite common in Albania), but moreover the drainage of the bathroom floor is not so good, so after shower you will get wet floor in the bathroom for half day. Small lamps beside both sides of the double bed would be welcome.

  : After a pleasant stay in Rida Village a couple of years ago we decided to return. Turned out to be a good decision. The place is located over Ksamil, on the road to some really nice beaches. The atmosphere is pleasant, Rida and her family are firendly and the food served is tasty.

  : Nice escape from noisy and touristic Ksamil. It is run by a lovely family. Very nice breakfast with homemade food and also the restaurant is good.It is the perfect place to stay if you prefer a more quiet stay and want to avoid the very touristic areas.
  : Prices in the restaurant are quite high compared to other restaurants in Ksamil.

  : Beautiful restaurant area, well decorated, nice olive trees in the garden, comfortable bed, very nice owners.
  : The lighting was all wrong in the rooms: no bed side lights, no lampshades on ceiling lights (just stark bulbs) plus no shower curtain so water goes everywhere in the bathroom. Would be nice to have a few small extra touches as its VERY expensive eg. Nice bathrooms products, water in the fridge, a small vase of flowers, welcome drink etc

  : Very nice property in a quiet location away from crazy Ksamil but close enough to all the beaches and even possible to walk to town. Loved the shaded area and many outdoor seating portions for guests, including hammocks. Rooms were small but very comfortable and clean. Service was very friendly. Romantic restaurant with good food. We had a nice dinner in the lovely setting of the restaurant. Fresh fish, mussels and salad, followed by delicious brownie for dessert. They had a good wine selection we tried some white Albanian wine which was very good. Breakfast was also delicious.
  : Everything was excellent.
