Amazing stay here. As a young solo traveller I usually love a party hostel but this was my favourite hostel I’ve ever stayed. The host Sergio is AMAZING, volunteers are lovely and location is great.

Natural is honestly the best hostel I’ve stayed at so far! I loved it so much that I extended my stay, and so did so many other travelers. The vibe is super chill but social. I met some of the best people there and had such a good time. The dinners are amazing and really bring everyone together, and Sergio is THE BEST!! You can really tell how much love is put into making the hostel feel like home. Definitely recommend Natural if you’re staying in Himarë. I already miss it.
