View All HotelsHotels with Breakfast Included in Borsh — What to Expect
For a taste of the Albanian Riviera away from the more crowded spots, consider the village of Borsh. Its main attraction is Borsh Beach, one of the longest stretches of pebble and sand coastline in the country, backed by dramatic cliffs and clear Ionian waters. The real character comes from the working olive groves that blanket the hillsides, and the imposing Borsh Castle ruins that watch over the bay, offering panoramic views after a short hike. Days here are for swimming, exploring the castle, and lingering over fresh seafood at a waterfront taverna.
This is a place for travelers seeking a relaxed, authentic coastal experience rather than nightlife. It suits couples and small groups looking for peace, and families who appreciate a long, open beach. You’ll want a hotel or guesthouse along the main coastal road or in the village center for easy beach access. While having your own car is ideal for exploring nearby Himara or Saranda, furgon minibuses regularly travel the coastal highway.
Accommodation in Borsh is mostly locally-run guesthouses and small family hotels, offering great value and direct sea views. You can find simple apartments right on the beachfront and comfortable hotels set back in the olive groves. For example, Hotel Borsh provides straightforward rooms just a short walk from the water, perfect for a no-fuss seaside stay.
