Hotel Description
Guesthouse Lindi is a dream of another life, set on a beautiful shaded property in the middle of Gjelaj, with nice green lawns, outdoor seating and dozens of beehives. Intelligent and charming young summer hostess Aurela speaks good English (and some Spanish and Italian), and lives with the family during high season. She can guide you to the pass for Theth (20€) or to the Valbona waterfall (10€), or even better, show you around the old village, telling stories of all the old houses and history (see: The first 5 years of her life, when in winter they had to build stairs from the snow to leave the house by the second-story windows). Lulash, the pater-familias, is one of the most likeable, kind and intelligent men I’ve met in years. Family member Denis can give you a taxi into Valbona for 20€. The house has two guestrooms: one with 3 single beds, and another with four single beds each for 20€ a person, including breakfast and dinner. This is one of our Absolutely Favorite Places in the Whole Valley. These days, the family lives here from April to November.
