Villa Chingo

Property is on a hill with several signs leading to it and a very small area for parking. There was no reception area and no indication of where to go. We literally walked into one of the doors, walked down a hall and found our names on pieces of paper stuck in the doors. One room had a leak in the bathroom. The rooms were clean and quiet and there was a common kitchen area and beautiful view from a covered common patio area.

We stayed at Villa Chingo for 3 nights in the top floor 3 person room. The accomodation had amazing balcony views and was the perfect place for a peaceful start to our holiday. The premises were clean and there were kitchen facilities to use. The host Lupco was great- very friendly and helpful- he was always available for any questions and help. The one downside is that the location is quite far from Ohrid town, so unless you want peaceful break or have a car, it may be a task to get a cab or use local buses. There is a nearby restaurant which is amazing and a small conveniece store 15 mins walk. Id highly recommend considering these premises.

Stayed here by chance. It was an awesome stay, didn’t book the view room at first but after seeing it, we paid the fee to have the view, and kept the doors open for the wind at night. It was a very pleasant stay. We had a car, but it’s not the for the faint hearted to drive up the hill to get there, and the tight, short, road. Parking is included, just know that any of the Balkan countries with off road streets can be difficult. This location is prime, on the outskirts of Ohrid, 8 minutes from the center, and a 20 minute drive to Struga, which we drove to everyday. Coming from New Jersey, a 20 minute drive is easy. The owner spoke Macedonian and English, and was very accommodating. Thank you for a great stay!

Having booked the night before, I arrived, and the owner had already booked the room to someone else. He claimed that he’d only just received the confirmation from Hotel.com. He was completely rude and started shouting at me.

Amazing host , he picked us up and took us back from the airport , even took us to a local bakery to get some amazing pies . Always on hand with info and prices about the area . The view on the balcony took our breath away . Chingo has really got a nice spot . I definitely recommend this place and we are definitely going back to Villa Chingo !

An amazing location, and a friendly and very helpful host. I would absolutely recommend Villa Chingo.

Wonderful room with comfortable bed, beautiful balcony and amazing views. BOOK IT NOW. Nicest host you will ever meet. Made us feel like family.

The owner, Chingo, is a ver nice guy who does everything he can to make your stay enjoyable. The rooms are simple but comfortable and hav great views of the lake. The beach in front down the hill at the shoreline Granit is nice and you can use their facilities. The one problem is having to take a taxi to and from town, but Chingo helps to arrange everything. Overall I had a very nice experience!

Thanks for the service.

Our room was spacious and very clean. We had big balcony with great view on the lake. Staff was wonderful, friendly and helpful.

Vriendelijke en behulpzame gastheer, mooie kleinschalige accomodatie met gemeenschappelijke keuken voor de diverse kamers. Prachtig zicht op het meer en rustig gelegen. Restaurant en winkeltje liggen op wandelafstand, wat wel handig is.

motel sahibi ilgili. wi-fi çok yetersiz. odalarda klima yok. pencerelerde sineklik yok.

Fantastisk perle tilbagetrukket og med sublim udsigt fra (tror jeg) de fleste værelser. Jeg har seriøst aldrig nogensinde (har rejst i knap 60 lande) haft så smuk en udsigt fra et værelse! OBS: Stedet er IKKE egnet til gangbesværede! Men for alle os andre er det en perle. Det er et meget, meget hyggeligt sted med virkelig god atmosfære - man har sit eget værelse, men der er måske 5-7 andre værelser, og man deler så køkken (vi havde dog eget køleskab og egen altan på begge værelser) og den hyggeligste gårdhave med evt. andre beboere. Det var superhyggeligt, og vi kom i snak med rejsende fra Italien, Holland og Danmark (men havde også gårdhaven for os selv mange gange). Eneste lille minus var, at der manglede bestik og lidt supplerende køkkenudstyr i det ellers superfine fælleskøkken. Vi vil virkelig anbefale dette sted, som ligger 5 min. gang fra Ohrid Søen og med et godt udgangspunkt for ture til Ohrid by (10 min. i bil) og mange andre smukke og spændende steder langs Ohrid Søen. OBS: Der er stærk trafik, hvis man vil gå ned til supermarkedet (men fred og ro og ingen trafik ved selve overnatningsstedet). Stedet egner sig bedst til, at man lejer bil.

Det var et flot hotel med en fantastisk beliggenhed. Værelset var rent og nydeligt, og det samme gjaldt det lille fælles køkken der var. Ejeren er utrolig imødekommende og hjælpsom.

Great location but skills to park recommended. Tight.

Beautiful, calm pearl of a place overlooking lake Ohrid, owner is really helpful and nice. Would recommended highly.

Apart tarzı bi yer manzara muhteşem ötesi kuş sesleriyle uyanıyorsunuz. Temzlik fena değil. Odada eksikler var ama manzaraya değer.

Generally a very good place to stay near Ohrid. Remember to contact the host in advance: he had not received our booking, hotels.com contacted him and he was there in 5-10 minutes. He apologized multiple times and made our room available very quickly. He is very kind and talkative, giving good recommendations. The view from our very big balcony was amazing!! The place is clean and comfortable with a kitchen shared with the other guests. We had issues to sleep due to dogs of the neighborhood barking constantly and lack of curtains.

Fantastik service, et lille hyggelig familie eget hotel, som virkelig ønsker at levere en super god service til alle gæsterne. Flere værelse har en hel fantastik udsigt. Dette sted får min varmeste anbefalinger.
