When it comes to beach getaways, picking the right place to stay can make all the difference. For our trip to Ksamil in May 2024, Max pulled off an amazing surprise for Carol by booking us at the EMAAR Hotel Ksamil – BEACHFRONT, Newly Renovated. With its gorgeous views and awesome location, it’s become a top choice for travellers, and we often get asked about it on our social media. So, let’s dive into why EMAAR Hotel is a fantastic pick for your Ksamil stay!

You can watch the surprise video below, which did not go fully as expected, but we had so much fun!

Location, Location, Location!

One of the best things about EMAAR Hotel is its location. Right on the beachfront, it gives you easy access to the stunning waters of the Ionian Sea. Picture this: waking up to the sound of waves and stepping out of your room to a breathtaking view of the beach. Dreamy right? Whether you want to lounge in the sun, take a dip, or try some water sports, you’re just a few steps away.

Plus, the hotel is smack in the middle of everything. You can walk to loads of great restaurants, shops, and attractions. This makes it super convenient to explore the lively local scene without needing a car.

A Newly Renovated Gem

EMAAR Hotel Ksamil has been recently renovated, so you’ll be enjoying modern amenities in a cosy setting. Our room was spacious and stylishly decorated, complete with a private balcony. It was the perfect spot for our morning drink while taking in the stunning views. The hotel has all the essentials you need for a comfy stay, like air conditioning, a mini fridge, and free Wi-Fi.

The bathrooms are great too, featuring modern fixtures and plenty of space. After a long day at the beach or exploring, it was nice to relax with a hot shower.

What really sets EMAAR apart is how each room captures that beachside vibe. The big windows flood the space with natural light, giving it a warm and inviting feel.

Dining Options at EMAAR

While we didn’t eat at the hotel, there’s an on-site restaurant that offers a mix of local and international dishes. The breakfast is especially worth mentioning, with fresh fruits, pastries, and traditional Albanian options. It’s a great way to fuel up for a day of adventures!

For lunch or dinner, the hotel’s beachfront location means you’re surrounded by plenty of dining options. Stroll along the coast to find local restaurants and seafood spots where you can enjoy freshly caught fish while watching the sunset (we will dive into some restaurants in our food blog - coming soon).

Chill Vibes and Awesome Amenities

EMAAR Hotel has everything you need to make your stay super comfy and enjoyable. The staff are genuinely friendly and always ready to help out with any questions or requests you might have. Whether you’re looking for local tips or want to plan some fun activities, they go above and beyond to ensure you have a great time.

One of the cool perks of staying at EMAAR is the setup right at the front of the hotel. They have lounge chairs and even swings where you can kick back and soak up the sun without spending a dime on beach lounge chair rentals. It’s a fantastic way to save some cash while still enjoying those beautiful Ksamil vibes!

Plus, if you’re driving to Ksamil, the hotel offers convenient car parking, which is a huge plus. Being able to park on-site made it super easy for us to explore the area without any hassle.

Exploring Ksamil

Staying at EMAAR Hotel puts you in the perfect spot to explore Ksamil. Known for its stunning beaches and nearby islands, this area is a paradise for beach lovers. You can hop on a boat to the nearby Ksamil Islands or even rent a kayak for a more personal adventure.

Paddling to the inhabited islands lets you explore at your own pace, and you might even want to take snacks for a romantic picnic on one of the islands.

In addition to the beaches, you can also discover vibrant underwater life. Snorkelling is a must in Ksamil, as the clear waters are filled with fish and other marine creatures. Bring or rent a snorkel set, and take some time to explore the underwater wonders just off the shore.

A Heads-Up About Noise

If you’re staying at EMAAR Ksamil for its beachfront location, it’s good to know that being this close to the action comes with some noise, especially during peak season. The hotel is centrally located, so you’ll be near the beach, restaurants, and nightlife, but this also means you might hear some lively noise in the evenings. If you’re a light sleeper or prefer a quieter spot, you might want to request a room further from the street or consider bringing some earplugs for those lively nights. But if you’re keen on experiencing the local nightlife, this hotel puts you right in the action!

Your Perfect Ksamil Getaway Awaits

In a nutshell, if you’re on the lookout for an affordable beachfront hotel in Ksamil, EMAAR Hotel Ksamil ticks all the boxes. With its modern rooms, fantastic location, and close proximity to both the beach and local attractions, you can’t go wrong. Whether you’re on a romantic getaway or a fun trip with friends or family, you’ll find the perfect mix of relaxation and adventure.

So, if you’re planning a visit to Ksamil, definitely consider booking your stay at EMAAR Hotel. And if you do, we’d love to hear what you think—be sure to share your experience with us! Until next time, happy travels from Carma Adventures! 🌍✨
