Overview

Olivia's Hill Resort is a modern 4-star retreat perched on the hills of Radhimë, offering some of the most breathtaking views of the Ionian Sea. Having recently updated its facilities for the 2026 season, you’ll find a chic atmosphere that perfectly blends contemporary design with the natural beauty of the Albanian Riviera.

Dining

Food lovers will enjoy the sensory experience at the on-site restaurant, where you can dine just steps from the refreshing sea breeze on the outdoor terrace. The resort offers Bed and Breakfast and Half Board meal plans, focusing on fresh Mediterranean flavours, local seafood, and traditional Albanian dishes. Your morning starts with a varied buffet featuring local pastries and fresh fruit, while dinner serves up a sophisticated menu paired with regional wines.


Pools and Spa

The star of the show is the stunning infinity pool, which creates the illusion of merging directly into the turquoise sea below. It is the perfect spot for a quiet afternoon soak or a poolside cocktail. If you are looking for extra relaxation, the wellness area provides a tranquil setting for a massage. Please note that the use of the Spa centre, including specific massages and beauty treatments, may be subject to additional charges.


Beach

You’ll find the resort’s dedicated beach area approx. a 5-minute walk or a very short drive down the hill. This pebble beach features crystal-clear waters ideal for snorkelling. Sun loungers and umbrellas are provided free of charge for hotel guests in the private section, ensuring you have a comfortable spot to soak up the sun all day long.


Sport and Entertainment

The atmosphere at Olivia's Hill Resort is centered around chilled-out relaxation. You can enjoy occasional live acoustic music on the terrace during the evening, creating a sophisticated backdrop for your holiday drinks. For those who want to stay active, the local area is famous for hiking trails and boat trips to hidden coves along the peninsula. A unique hook for this property is its direct view of the Karaburun Peninsula, which you can explore via private boat tours arranged by the hotel staff.


Family Amenities

Families are welcome at the resort, and kids will love the dedicated section in the pool area designed for younger swimmers. While the hotel maintains a peaceful vibe, there is plenty of space for children to play, and the shallow waters at the private beach make it a safe spot for a family paddle in the sea.

“Should have been better”

Lovely personnel, very helpful, and kindly greeted with local cocktail. All the rest is somewhat of a disappointment. We booked a suite for three nights. On arrival day, our room is not available-occupied by someone else, we are downgraded to inferior accommodation with broken shower doors and broken window shade (won’t close). Compensation is offered, but still ... annoying. The next day, our room is available. Yet another broken shower door and broken shade (won’t open). Dirty sofa bed full of crisps, dark room obviously, albeit on top floor. Pool area seems nice, but in the shade from 2 pm onwards. The pool water is agreeable, but it stings both eyes and nose when you put your head under water. Beach is walking distant but dirty and noisy surroundings outside the hotel. Better option on beach front, and or else where. One last word about their traditional restaurant which is quite nice. The steakhouse can also be visited on a second occasion.

“Would recommend”

We stayed for one night, price was really good, pool and room and breakfast were lovely and Esmalina was so lovely and helpful. We were allowed a late checkout and she was so responsive to our messages.

“Durres vacation”

Great Hotel with friendly waiters and staff. It’s been our second time in this hotel. We really enjoyed our stay. Sufficient breakfast, a nice pool, close to the beach and even enough space for parking. Hope to come again!
