Thursday by the pool

Thursday was the night: the Infinity Sunset Pool Party took over the infinity pool from sundown to midnight, and its page has the times. Earlier in the season the resort had also listed an afternoon edition, the Infinity Pool Party, with deep house and summer anthems while the sun was still high.

The resort around it

The figures on its own website: 60 apartments, 13 villas and 122 hotel rooms, served by four bars and two restaurants. Veranda e Zanave, the pool bar, works from breakfast to midnight and changes role through the day, from pool bar to sunset terrace to lounge. The beach is the resort's own and stays reserved for guests.

    Festivals & big dates

    Sunset parties in Sarandë: the 2026 nights that started early and ended by midnight

    Not everyone wants to start at midnight. On the Sarandë seafront, a handful of 2026 parties began before dark and were over by twelve, leaving the night free or the morning intact. Here they are side by side, from their official posters and ticket pages, with the details that differ from one to the next.
