The waterfront promenade holds the town’s restaurants, cafés and sea views. Buyers find mid-rise apartment blocks and newer developments facing the bay, at the highest prices in town.
Shops, services and the port are close by. Apartments here are generally older or mid-age blocks at lower prices per m², with the bay a short walk away.
Above the town, the hillside below Lëkurësi Castle offers elevated bay views and a quieter setting. Access is by road and stairs, so check the walk to the centre.
The coast road south leads to Ksamil and Butrint. Newer, lower-density complexes and holiday apartments suit buyers who want beach access over city convenience.
Yes. Foreign nationals can buy apartments and houses in Sarandë on the same basis as Albanian citizens, with no special permit for residential property. Agricultural land is the main exception, so check the land category if you are looking at a plot or villa outside town.
Prices depend mainly on the view. Apartments in the town centre sell for about €1,600 to €1,800 per m², while sea-view apartments on the bay cost roughly €2,200 to €3,000 per m². New builds across town average around €1,800 to €2,500, with first-line and penthouse units at the top of the range.
Sarandë is one of Albania’s strongest short-term rental markets, supported by visitors to the Riviera, Ksamil and Butrint. Market reports put short-term yields at around 8% to 10% for well-located, well-managed apartments. The season is more concentrated than in Durrës or Vlorë, so plan for quieter winter months.
Passenger ferries sail between Sarandë port and Corfu town, with the fastest boats crossing in well under an hour and extra sailings in summer. Corfu airport has direct flights to many European cities, which is why many foreign owners fly to Corfu and take the ferry rather than drive from Tirana.
Sarandë is a year-round town with shops, services, a promenade and a port, so it suits buyers who want to live there or rent for longer periods. Ksamil, about 15 minutes south, is a smaller beach resort with some of the clearest water on the coast, higher seasonal demand and a shorter season.
A typical purchase starts with a reservation deposit, then legal checks on the title, building permit and developer. The sale contract is signed before a public notary, who files it with the State Cadastre Agency to register the property in your name. On off-plan projects, payments are usually staged with construction progress.
Budget roughly 2% to 4% of the purchase price for notary fees, cadastre registration, translations and legal due diligence. Buyers do not pay a separate property purchase tax in Albania. If you plan to rent out the apartment, also allow for furnishing and a local management fee.
It is not strictly required for the purchase itself, as funds can be transferred from abroad to the seller or a notary-controlled account. A local account is still practical for paying utilities, building fees and annual property tax, and for receiving rental income.
