Vlorë Local Partner Programme

Your business.
Their unforgettable
experience.

We bring European companies to the Albanian Riviera. We need the best of Vlorë to make it extraordinary.

Join the network

Our commitment to Vlorë

We grow together, or not at all.

House of Ionara doesn't import experiences from abroad and deliver them here. We build retreats from the ground up with what Vlorë already has — its food, its people, its landscapes, its spirit.

Every retreat is a moment where a Western company discovers Albania through your hands. We're not your client. We're your co-author.

How the partnership works

Simple by design. Built for real businesses.

I
You apply
Tell us what you do, your capacity, and what makes you stand out. No complex paperwork — we want to understand your business, not audit it.
II
We meet
If your profile fits a need in our retreats, we set up a conversation. We'll be direct about expectations on both sides before any commitment is made.
III
You're in the network
As retreats are confirmed, we contact our active partners first. You deliver. We pay promptly, promote you, and grow the relationship.

"Most of Vlorë's talent serves tourists for three summer months, then waits. We're building something that works all year — because corporate retreats don't stop when the sun does."
