Location and the private beach, the room are very clean and the service.
Aragosta was a great place to stay in Durres. Right on the water and easy to go for a swim in the sea, access to beach beds, small on site garage for a car and an easy walk to the old city to see the sights. Very happy with the location and accommodation.
Clean room with towels changed regularly. Nice breakfast and close to the promenade with lots of restaurants. Small private beach with towels provided. Overall a very good hotel in a decent location.
The staff at the hotel and restaurant are courteous and professional. Unlike some places in the Balkans, the hotel is well set up and planned out: the HVAC is easy to operate and works, the shower is easy and water stays in the shower, no leaks. And the restaurant has delicious food, especially the the fresh fish and seafood.

The property is OK they say it was remodeled in 2024 but evidently, they skipped the showers. The rooms are good size and beds are comfortable. The beach is small and not very clean, breakfast was OK but hot items were cold soon as served as they had no warmers.
Potential is great but still do need lots of work to get there.

Liked: Cleanliness
It was a nice room with a big balcony with great sea and sunset views.
It has it's own very clean beach with loungers and towels provided.
The bed was comfortable.
Few issues: the fridge wasn't working and after reporting this a few times, it took 24hrs to change it. The shower leaked and the skin outlet pipe leaked so the floor got flooded when it was used. The sink took 4 attempts to solve the issue. There was no safe in the room and although requested, one wasn't brought to the room.
The large tv only had a few channels with English compared to other lesser starred hotels during this holiday. Although we were told at check-in that we could request milk and ice 24hrs a day, when we requested ice at approx 11pm, we were told this wasn't possible (the fridge had not been replaced at that stage).
Breakfast in the building next door was good.
Really excellent small and friendly hotel
The staff were so very friendly and helpful
Clean room and bathroom with great shower.
Private beach was well maintained with staff on hand ready to help
Thank you for a lovely stay
Overall we were very impressed, the rooms with a view are lovely, the private beach perfect, the staff very helpful and friendly. My only suggestion for improvement would have been a small beach bar to avoid having to head into the restaurant for a drink, but this is purely a convenience thing. Great place, am recommending.
Great breakfast with our stay! The rooms were clean and spacious. The little rooftop chairs were an excellent find for a quiet sip of wine and a sunset view :) Front desk staff were all super friendly. We didn't have time to use the beach chairs but they are offered.
Fint hotell med god service og bra fasiliteter som privat strand. Frokost var helt ok, mye av det samme men det funket. Personalet var veldig hjelpsomme med alt fra å ordne taxi til parkering av bil og ved mangler på hotellrommet.
God varieret morgenmad. Der var appelsiner, som man dog selv skulle presse til juice. Jeg vil foreslå en fuldautomatisk presser, men jeg var dog meget glad for den elektriske presser, som man selv skulle benytte. Dejligt at være tæt på stranden. Jeg var taknemmelig for hjælp til parkering. Der er ikke elkedel til te på værelset, og det, synes jeg, er en lille mangel. Man alt i alt er hotellet anbefalelsesværdigt.
