This place is rated a 5 star resort. It is definitely not! Resort is beautiful with pristine beach with turquoise clear water and very vibey and youthful restaurants and bars. But staff are not 5 star standard. The staff are not helpful and if you ask for assistance they seem bothered. This included waiters, bartenders and beach staff. Housekeeping also did not change garbage, refill coffee pods and made bed half assed. The room itself was fine, nothing extra ordinary. Shampoo dispenser kept falling off in shower and blowdryer was broken. This resort definitely fell short of 5 star. This was our third stop at 5 star resorts down the Albanian riviera and it did not come close to comparison to others. We love Albania and will return, but need to this resort.

The view is absolutely stunning! There's quite a big difference in rooms. Some of the rooms are completely renovated (specially the bathroom) and others are not. We got lucky and received a brand new room, but friends of ours didn't and the bathroom was in real need of renovations. The reception isn't always that friendly, but overall we had a very nice stay, the view (such a beautiful bay) and breakfast (what is wonderful, by the way) make up for those little inconvenients

We had high expectations going to Folie Marine… however, even though the facilities look good and nice, the experience was horrible! The staff can be rude and don’t care about accommodating you. The hotel arranges events sometimes but they never tell you about them which normally should be the case. They have their own clientele which are pretty much local and they only care about them. Tourists are kinda not treated as much as their own high end local customers. I won’t even talk about the prices within the hotel which are just crazy!!! Overall… wouldn’t recommend. You wanna have fun in Albania with nice beaches and nice people: just stay in Ksamil.

A Dream Anniversary Getaway – Pure Perfection! (10/10) My partner and I stayed at Folie Marine Beach Hotel & Club in Jale to celebrate our wedding anniversary, and I can honestly say it was absolute perfection from start to finish. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the breathtaking setting — crystal-clear turquoise waters, a private beach that felt like paradise, and the most stunning views from every angle. It felt like stepping into a postcard, only better. The hotel itself is beautifully designed — chic, elegant, and immaculately clean. Every detail is thoughtfully curated, from the luxurious rooms with sea-facing balconies to the relaxing ambiance throughout the property. Waking up to the sound of the waves and sipping coffee while overlooking the Ionian Sea was something we’ll never forget. What truly made our stay unforgettable was the exceptional service. Every staff member we encountered was warm, attentive, and genuinely caring, making us feel special throughout our stay. It’s rare to experience this level of hospitality, and it made all the difference. The amenities were top-notch — from the serene pool and beach beds to the vibrant beach club and delicious dining options. We loved the restaurants on-site; the food was fresh, beautifully presented, and packed with flavor. Whether we were enjoying a romantic dinner by the water or sipping cocktails at sunset, every moment felt magical. Folie Marine is more than just a hotel — it’s an experience.

The hotel is a new concept, very modern. The facilities are great, with direct private beach access, a pool, and three small jacuzzis. There is a large restaurant area and a bar zone. The food was the second best thing, extremely good. Great margarita and good selection of wines! Yet, there are no snacks between 5-8PM, just club sandwich or beef burger. At the beach, the beach beds are assigned based on your room band, which seems unfair, and some beds are reserved for the hotels owner's family it seems. It was extremely difficult, almost impossible, to communicate with the staff who speak barely any English. On one occasion, we paid in cash and gave a large tip, and 6 hours later a different waiter came to ask for more money because he said we hadn't paid the full amount for one single drink. After asking them to check, they said it was a mistake. In the room, the ocean view was blocked by a large fan and trees. Also, the light switches should have some code or labels as it takes a lot of trial and error to figure out. It's a shame that with great facilities, the staff is the worst part. No English, everyone does their job as if they hate it and are in a bad mood, and it's impossible to get anyone's attention to get service. Between food service times, the approx. 20 guys who work around the beach areas (no women) just gather around chatting or on their phones instead of looking after guests, and have bad attitude if you approach them to get anything.

It was a very nice stay. We were welcomed greatly. The staff was very nice and helpful. We booked halfboard so we had breakfast buffet and a la carte evening diner. It was very familial and not too crowded. I would recommend 10/10. Diner was a little expensive for these that did not have it included so if you take only breakfast, you will have to count an extra 30€ per night.

Wonderful romantic location.

Beautiful location. Great pool area. And a scuba diving centre on site. But next time I will upgrade the room. The basic room is huge. But the view is the best part so worth upgrading to the sea view. Also, the pool restaurant is the best.

Not going back!

People that work there are over satisfied for themselves and they make sure not to serve the guests at all. Everything we requested was refused and no choice is given (ie. main restaurant doesnt have a child seat). I booked the room with a bath tub-there was no bathtub. Beach that was dedicated for hotel guest even though we went at 8 am there had all two first rows “booked”-when asked if we can reserve for tomorrow,answer was they are “booked”. This was my visit in south of Albania after 11 years-going again back soon-after another 10 years, by than they have learned hospitality hopefully!

The only positive point was the beautiful view of the beach and sea. The hotel is so overpriced compared to the quality of the service. The beds in the rooms are not comfortable, pillows are hard and have me neck pain throughout the stay. The staff at the hotel was ok but could be improved as this is a 5 star hotel and didn’t feel like it. There was no entertainment at the hotel which was kind of boring at some point. Food and drinks were very expensive and there were not a lot of choice. The menus at the two restaurants on site were outdated and didn’t even care to have the appropriate menu available for the guests. Result , everything you were ordering was either not available or did not do it anymore which was very frustrating. I ordered a chicken breast meal on the menu and was given something else with an undercooked chicken which is NOT ACCEPTABLE ! It’s too bad this hotel is not giving what they advertised for. I don’t recommend this hotel .

Not 5* but a lovely hotel in a great spot.

Nice hotel but not 5* service. Yes the location is a great spot, they have some glamorous big rooms with sea side views and jacuzzi but it's the service which makes a property 5* that was just lacking. It felt nothing special to what we had elsewhere. It is also becoming very broken and uncared for in places that haven't been maintained well. Although gardening was great and cleaners did nice job in room. Even standard room in middle with no view were a good size. Upon arrival you get no guidance on map of property and where places were, how the pool works etc. We spotted a map as we left. Drinks and food as expected were expensive but their little restaurant in bottom was nicely priced and the staff were excellent. Limited other food in public beach area so have to try drive elsewhere. However breakfast was the best we have had anywhere. It was delicious and hot, varied and healthy. Could not fault them on any of the bits. Parking really easy but signage is bad you have to go to bottom and drive through soleil hotel entrance and up the hill to car park at back. There is another back beach entrance but isn't clear it's for hotel.

Denna resort har en privat stenstrand med härliga solsängar och fantastiskt vatten. Rummet var mycket fräscht och hotellets restauranger hade mycket god mat och mycket goda drinkar. Det som drar ner betyget är tyvärr personalen. Många i personalen var buttra och inte speciellt service minded. Vi är vana vid otrolig service på våra resor men upplevde att överlag var det väldigt dålig service i Albanien. Synd, då resorten är väldigt fin och som sagt har mycket bra mat och dryck. Jag hoppas de kommer jobba på sin service, kan absolut tänka mig att åka tillbaka hit då. Tjejen med det röda håret som var vid frukosten varje morgon var däremot alltid glad och trevlig! De andra borde ta efter henne!
