How do you get to Poda from Sarandë?
In 2026 by the venue's own transport on some nights: the Saturday Love Night ran a round-trip shuttle, and Bad Bunnies gave a transport pick-up. Otherwise it's the coast road, about 11 km in a straight line from the Sarandë promenade, to Rruga Gjiri Poda in Ksamil.
The Monday Love Night's page mentioned no shuttle, so don't assume the service ran every night. We found no official night bus or taxi fare for the route.
| Night | Leaves Sarandë | From | Back |
|---|---|---|---|
| Love Night, Saturdays | 23:00 | Rruga Skënderbeu (SH8), corner of Rruga 40 Shenjtorët | About 03:00 |
| Bad Bunnies, Saturdays | 23:15 | Map pin on the ticket page | Not published |
| Love Night, Mondays | No transport published | — | — |
What time should you get to Poda?
Going by the shuttle, you'd reach Ksamil before midnight, since it is the only time Poda printed. The page asks you to reach the meeting point 10–15 min early and warns that the bus leaves on time.
The way back is the real decision. The return left at about 03:00, and no page says how late the night itself ran, so anyone staying on needs a ride of their own. Greg Beach Club, its neighbour, kept going until later on the nights it dated.
What do the Love Night bracelets mean?
They tell everyone where you stand: red for taken, green for single, blue for 'one night only'. You pick one at the door, so there are no awkward questions, as the page puts it; the Saturday page words the options slightly differently, as single, engaged or one night only.
None of the pages sets a dress code or a minimum age. Bad Bunnies' only rule was its slogan, 'no rules, just party', which is a line and not a door policy, so check the questions at the door as well.
What music do they play at Poda?
Urban, reggaeton and commercial, in the main. Love Night promised urban, reggaeton, commercial and club anthems, and Bad Bunnies reggaeton and commercial hits all night.
A third party, French Touch, appeared only inside a 2026 three-night pass, with French music and no date of its own.
What is Poda like?
Open-air, and tied to a small hotel. Ticket pages place the nights at both Poda Lounge Bar, on Rruga Gjiri Poda, and Poda Boutique Hotel, whose own site describes a small hotel in the centre of Ksamil with a pool, a bar and a restaurant.
One pass called it 'the largest open-air club', a claim we can't check, since no capacity is published. Its venue page gathers the rest.
Will Poda have nights in 2027?
Nothing has been published: when we last read the ticket listings for Albania, on 31 October 2026, no night was on sale. If you are still weighing the two towns for your stay, Saranda or Ksamil sets them side by side.
