Old stone lanes above a blue horizon.

Vuno is one of the atmospheric villages of the Albanian Riviera, set on the slope between the Ceraunian Mountains and the Ionian Sea. From the village, the view opens toward olive groves, terraced hills, and deep blue water, while the narrow lanes keep the quiet character of a traditional coastal settlement.
