Dhërmi, Albania
We’d actually planned to stop at Borsh and Porto Palermo on route to Dhermi, but
we ended spending much longer than we’d planned exploring Gjirokastër, so both
places were moved into the next day’s itinerary. As we drove through Himarë, I
felt glad that we’d chosen Dhermi as our base instead of this big, busy beach
resort that seemed very far removed from either of our ideas of paradise.
Conversely, our home for the next two nights in Dhermi was a little oasis of
peace and tranquility just outside the village and within easy walking distance
of the beach. Penelope’s Rooms is run by the sweetest, most genuine couple who
want nothing more than to make their guests’ stays as enjoyable as possible.
It’s also surrounded by mountains that we could gaze out at from our private
terrace.
