Go hungry, and leave inspired! The creators of this beautiful farm, Shawn and Kyle, have put their whole hearts into building a truly unique and unforgettable experience for everyone who takes the leap to join them in this gorgeous little morsel of land in the Albanian mountains. Shawn’s exquisite talent in the kitchen shines in the 7-course meal they provide on the day tour - Every single course is something to write home about, and infused with the care you would expect in a luxury hotel. The farm itself is a dream unfolding - still under construction, but clearly a budding flower. I can’t wait to go again and enjoy the fresh air, breathtaking views, and delicious food!

I enjoyed helping to make the byrek course in the delightful designer-rustic interactive kitchen. I also participated in the goat milking for the homemade cheese and made friends with some adorable kids, both goat and human lol.
The lunch was superb in a wonderful natural setting with beautiful mountain views; something delicious for everyone’s tastes.
I look forward to a return visit to experience more up and coming delights on the grounds as they manifest, such as the natural ecological swimming pool which will be purified by water plants, more animals, and the themed chalets. The farm is a work in progress. Very interesting.

What a special night! I went on a 'Full Moon Party' tour at Bote Farms and I can thoroughly recommend their events to everyone. The food was delicious and there was plenty of wine and drinks. The location itself was really special, in the countryside, just outside of Saranda. Very peaceful, idyllic, great views. There was a great crowd at the event from lots of different countries, it was really relaxed.

An amazing place in nature. Accommodation Top notch perfect for a family or coming with friends, or couples. the day trips for food and farm trip are the best value for money you will find. And you will not leave hungry or disappointed. Organic home-grown food milk and eggs from the farm. a perfect eco-tourism destination.

I attended the last party of the season, the New Moon Party. Shawn and Kyle were so accomodating and super easy to get along with. This sets the mood so well for a bunch of international strangers to enjoy food, nature, and tunes together :) Transportation was really helpful, the location is stunning, and the food was clearly made with lots of love. I can't wait to see how this place grows and I'd highly recommend this to anyone visiting Albania :D

This was an amazing experience I will never forget. The owners and all the colleagues at the farm was really nice and made us feel comfortable. We got an amazing lunch with a beautiful view after meeting all the friendly animals We had i great cooking class with an amazing chef. We also got to lay by the pool for a couple of hours enjoying the quiet and beautiful landmarks. This is really a hidden gem. This is a place for everyone. We also got to meet a lot of new people from all over the world that we became good friends with in just a couple of hours. Thank you for this great experience!😊

We had an excellent evening at Bote Farms! After a short ride from Sarande, we get to a location with some amazing views of the valley and mountains surrounding. They brought us a welcome drink and the night began. I don't want to spoil some of the surprises for your evening but I will say bring an appetite. Also that our tour was an evening event with no children (perfect). Everyone there is very friendly and tries to keep you engaged and entertained.
I definitely recommend you spend an evening at Bote Farms! You won't regret it.

What a unique way to remember my travels in Albania! I absolutely loved this experience, from the delicious dinner to the adorable baby goats. The hosts were easy to contact and so welcoming and personable. I loved chatting with the farm residents and hearing their stories. The dinner was exquisite and the setting couldn’t have been more beautiful. I was traveling solo and even made new friends! Highly, highly recommend.

I stayed for four glorious nights in this beautiful slice of the Albanian countryside. Every detail of the experience has been carefully curated by hosts Shawn and Kyle, from the unique themed villas to the incredible food. The Hollywood villa, which includes mementos from the hosts’ prior lives in the entertainment industry, was my home during my stay and I woke up each morning to a stunning view. I spent time relaxing around and in the gorgeous eco pool and had opportunities galore to interact with the farm animals.
The setting itself is just spectacular, but it’s all the little details and creative touches that Kyle and Shawn have added that make the experience truly special. Highly, highly recommend.

Amazing experience! Rural location, away from the city with stunning views. It was really nice to get your hands on some practical cooking of local food. The meal itself is anything beyond you can describe with words…. The views are stunning, the setting is incredible and the food itself is just wow. Natural and pure ingredients are delicious on their own but the combinations of surprising recipes and incredibly generous amounts are truly hard to describe, only to be experienced!! Plus, the natural pool is very unique as well as the beautiful villas, can’t recommend enough :D
