Smoking friendly holiday rentals in Lake Ohrid

Everything was perfect

Our stay at Arben’s Airbnb was absolutely perfect in every way! Arben was super friendly and made us feel right at home! He offered to pick us up from the station, and ensured we left Pogradec safely after our stay. When we arrived he was gracious enough to gift us some of his own wine, and traditional Albanian tea! (It was delicious) The apartment was fantastic, especially the view from the balcony. Pogradec itself was a blast! The flat was only a very short walk away from the beach and nearby to restaurants and shops. This has been the best value stay I’ve ever had and could not recommend Arben’s AirBnB enough!!

I’d give 6 stars if I could! Anita and Ulrich’s apartment is great and they are wonderful hosts. They’re incredibly friendly and welcoming, and were always responsive to answer any questions I had. The apartment is in a great location, multiple shops nearby, a market and restaurants. Everything you might want to visit like the lake, the old town, Kaneo, are all only a short walk away. The apartment is clean and has absolutely everything you may need. I stayed for just over a month and it was perfect. If you are doing remote work the apartment is perfect for that. The internet is fast and I never had issues with it dropping out. Already looking forward to coming back!

We stayed at Boban's appartment for two nights. It was a very warm place with great view. The appartment is fully equipped with anything you may need. Boban is very friendly and helpful and he is available if you need him. We recommend it for sure and we will definitely choose it the next time we are in Ohrid.

Goran was a very responsive host and the place was exactly as advertised. Perfect for a few days short stay in Ohrid.

Mr. Kelmend was the most sincere and friendly host I have ever seen in my life. He gave us a nice tour of the house and introduced us to the interior in detail. He gave us information about the surroundings of the house and nearby businesses/tourist places. Everything was clean at home and there were plenty of amenities. The entire balcony you see in the photos belonged to us and we loved it. I wish we could have stayed here longer. It was great!

We had a great stay here! The apartment was clean and well-maintained, with all the necessary amenities for a comfortable stay. The free parking spot right in front of the apartment was incredibly convenient for us with car. I appreciated the ability to cook and do laundry, which made it feel like a home away from home. The kitchen was well-equipped, and the washing machine was a real bonus. Moreover, this place is budget-friendly, offering excellent value for money. I highly recommend this apartment! ~ Love from Malaysia 🇲🇾

Kliment is your dream host! Always responsive and helpful, positive and welcoming, but also not intrusive and discreet! His place is just like Kliment, full of positive energy, light, spacious and cozy, with absolutely everything you need in it, just like at home! We were three adults, a two-year-old baby girl and a little red toy poodle dog and just had a relaxing wonderful time, even though I was on workation and working as well. There are enough rooms so you can isolate and work and the rest can also enjoy and relax. You have cable TV and wifi internet non stop. Kliment set us up with a baby chair and a crib with a firm mattress, so our little girl enjoyed, just as at home. The location is in a private and quiet area, but really a 5 min walk from everything you need in Ohrid, including the Lake's main promenade! The building is new, it has an elevator that can fit a baby bike stroller and a ramp at the entrance. We could not recommend it enough! Cheers and thank you Kliment! ❤️🍀

We felt very comfortable, great location right on the beach, we didn't miss it.

Everything was great.

The place is just magical if you are looking for calm and (immediate) proximity to the lake. Off season, it feels serene and privileged. Special mention for Filip's father who wonderfully welcomed us and responded to all our requests (or even more)!

We spent only 1 night at this place, but it was totally awesome! Super clean, spacious, well located, beautiful and, I must mention, has the softest towels in all AirBnBs in Albania. 😁 Kristjan, thank you so much for having us! 🫶

I've stayed in Ohrid several times—in four different locations. This one was perfect. It was close to the lake and only a few minutes to the attractions in the old town. She was super receptive and handled all my needs, including taking me to and from the bus station. I really appreciated it. I recommend it. There was no washing machine there, but she washed and dried my laundry herself, which was very kind. I'd stay there again.

Well, this place is a hidden gem in this beautiful part of the world. The house is wonderfully designed by the owners themselves, with lovely views and surroundings. Radmila and Mitko were very responsive and proactive , giving us many useful recommendations. We loved our stay at the brilliant Paskali Villa. We will be back!

That was the best holiday I’ve ever had. The house was beautiful, clean and spacious. Kitchen was clean and comfortable. It has everything you might need. The view to the lake was spectacular. Especially on sunset. Huge terrace and even bigger garden. Perfect place to be on quiet and peaceful vacation. And also really romantic spot. It’s in 15 minutes walk from the lake and 5 minutes with a car. We were with our dog and she spent most of the time in the garden. She loved it so much. The harden was fenced which was really important for us because we have a husky that loves to escape 😃. Ilina’s parents and grandparents are the kindest and warmest people you’ll meet. They welcomed us with coffee and we even played cards together. We’ll remember them forever. Aaand we’ll for sure be back soon because it felt like home.

Staying at Gordana's was a pleasure. The apartment is clean and located in a beautiful area. Beds are very comfortable. We highly recommend staying at this place, it was really cool !

Nice and clean apartment. Very friendly owner who has great recommendations. Definitely would recommend

Sandra's apartment is the best place I have stayed in in Ohrid. The view is spectacular, there are no words to describe the beauty surrounding the place. It is very quiet and near the city. I will be coming to this place again hopefully soon.

Great host. Very attentive & super quick responses.

we provided a very clean, comfortable stay. It was just like in the photos. A full f/p place 👌

Genta is a lovely host who cares about your well-being. She didn't hesitate to take her time to take us to the nearest beach. Everything was perfect. The accommodation is well located, comfortable and clean. Everything is as described! I would highly recommend it!

Ljupco is an amazing host. very friendly and helpful. always stopped for a chat. place is great. clean and good on price. apartment is warm and cosy with a balcony with a great view. I'll be back again. thanks again Ljupco was a great stay. and miss the place already

I stayed in Sofija’s beautiful home for a month while I worked remotely from Ohrid. The WiFi was very fast and reliable. The apartment has a lot of character and is one of the more pleasant places I’ve stayed in years of traveling. I loved being a little set back from the lake so I got to walk through the town to run errands, and getting to be in a quieter, residential part of the town. Sofija was a lovely host who made me feel right at home. Ohrid now has a very special place in my list of places I’ve been, in no small part to this very pleasant home. Would recommend to any solo travelers or couples, and would gladly stay again!
