A workation at Villa Lugina is a real retreat to nature. We offer simple yet comfortable accommodation in the middle of nowhere. Peace and quiet. A chance to focus on work, find inspiration, and recharge. Position yourself in the co-work pavilion, or just somewhere in the garden. Join us for a hike after work - or don't. It's entirely up to you. We provide the meals and beverages. You do you.

Villa Lugina is the result of an adventure we started in the summer of 2022, with the purchase of a house in a tiny village, Fushe Buall in Albania. We renovated the house with the idea to make it a place for people to write, work and relax. Andrina organized (academic) writing retreats and workations in Albania and North-Macedonia and continues to do so at Villa Lugina. She also runs the Thesis Tribe with online co-workingsessions for students. Ziv gave up his job in The Netherlands. He built the co-workspace, renovated the little truck, takes care of the garden and does a fair bit of cooking for our guests.

Welcome to Villa Lugina in the little valley of Fushe Buall ⛰️🏡 Two twin rooms are available at the renovated main house, both a small bathroom attached. Towels and toiletries are provided. During the week guests will share a room. Private use may be possible at an additional fee. Get in touch to find out about availability. Any questions about the trip? You can let me know in the Q&A section! In the garden you'll find a tiny blue cabin 🦚 with a comfortable double bed and fantastic mountain views. A shared bathroom is available at the main house. You can book this cabin as a duo, or alone (additional fee) Behind the main house a converted little truck provides a cosy stay 🚚 On less than 6m2 you'll find a comfortable double bed, a desk and some storage space. Guests use the shared bathroom facilities at the main house. You can book the van as a duo, or alone (additional fee). All together, Villa Lugina comfortably hosts 4 to 8 people. There is a detached co-work space overseeing the valley.
