Can I list an apartment rather than a hotel?

Yes. Rental apartments, villas and guesthouses list free on the same terms as hotels — no monthly fee, and commission only on the bookings Traloa brings you.

Can I list several apartments at once?

Yes. If you rent several units they can be listed separately, each with its own price and calendar.

Do I need a registered business?

Registration and tax obligations for your activity remain yours and depend on your specific case. Talk to your accountant about it — Traloa cannot replace that.

How many photos do I need?

The more rooms, the more photos. At minimum: every bedroom, the bathroom, the kitchen if there is one, and the outside. Clear photos are the single biggest difference between a property that sells and one that does not.

Do I set my own price?

Yes. Prices, seasons, availability and cancellation terms are all under your control.

Guesthouses, villas and apartments: renting to travellers in Albania

You do not need a hotel to take bookings. Guesthouses, villas and rental apartments list free on Traloa on the same terms as hotels: no monthly fee, and commission only on the bookings that come through it.

Why small properties do well online

A large share of visitors to Albania are not looking for a hotel. Families want an apartment with a kitchen, groups want a whole villa, and travellers in the mountains want a guesthouse with a home-cooked welcome.

Those requests often go unanswered on the big international lists, where small properties disappear among hundreds of hotels. A marketplace focused on Albania puts them in front.

What guests look for in a guesthouse or apartment

How many people actually sleep there, and how the rooms are arranged. An accurate bed count removes most misunderstandings before they happen.

Whether there is a kitchen, a washing machine, air conditioning, hot water and parking. For family stays these decide more than the decor.

How far it is from the beach, the centre or the station. An honestly stated distance brings happy guests; a flattering one brings bad reviews.

How a small property gets listed

Send the application with the address, the units you rent, your prices and photos. The application is reviewed before the property is published.

If you rent several units — three apartments in the same building, for instance — you can list them as separate units with their own prices.

The calendar and prices stay under your control. If you also keep the property on other channels, you update them exactly as you do now.

Season and price

The coast works hard in summer and goes noticeably quiet outside the season; the mountains keep their own rhythm, with spring and autumn often busier than winter.

Different prices by season are normal and you set them. Traloa does not impose a price and does not change yours without you.

The legal and tax obligations of your activity remain yours — Traloa is a sales channel, not your accountant.
