How we score

Our weighted 10-point Holiday Score combines Google's overall rating, review volume, and sentiment around specific topics (service, food, atmosphere, accessibility). Sub-dimension scores weight category-specific signals — for restaurants we look at food and value mentions; for hotels at cleanliness and location; for beaches at water quality and facilities. Accessibility is weighted from verified wheelchair and mobility attributes.

Scores above 8.5 represent outstanding quality. 10.0 is reserved for editorial picks.

Why we like it
We keep coming back for the view — and the fact that they've managed to make it feel like a neighborhood spot rather than a tourist trap. The food is straightforward and local, the drinks list takes Albanian spirits seriously, and the terrace is the kind of place where an hour becomes three hours without you noticing.
