Eco-Village Valeni · Complex Văleni
A rebuilt traditional village at Văleni, with a pool, a jacuzzi and nature around
A night in a traditional-style house, with a pool, a jacuzzi and a traditional hot tub
Worth it as a weekend escape in the south of the country, in the warm season. Do read the one-star review about the price, the lighting and the drinks before booking.
Tourist complex in the village of Văleni, in the south of the country, built as a traditional village. One thing about the destination rather than the complex: the village of Văleni was named by the World Tourism Organization (UNWTO) one of its Best Tourism Villages 2023, the first place in Moldova to receive the distinction. Reviews describe Moldovan-style houses, nature all around and quiet: one guest talks about birds, sky and wind. For those staying overnight there is a swimming pool, a jacuzzi and a traditional hot tub, added in recent years per a visitor who has come twice. The food is praised, the rooms are described as well appointed and the staff as very friendly. Private events can be held here too. A family of five recounts staying in two rooms, one of them a children room with bunk beds. The nature reserve is close by. One visitor recommends the warm season, roughly May to October. There is also a one-star review worth reading before booking: for its author, the price of almost fifty euros for two, with a sort of breakfast, is too high for what they got. They fault economy bulbs that did not work during the event, the lack of lighting on the path to the toilet, where they say they nearly had an accident, and drinks served at room temperature, with no ice.

“I have visited the place twice. Once a few years ago and then today (Aug. 2024). Today we positively noticed many improvements, including a swimming pool, Jacuzzi and traditional hot tub for overnight guests. The set up represents a traditional village and you get a feel for the country if you're a visiting guest from outside Moldova. You can also have private events there. As…”
“Pro: Nice atmosphere, in the middle of nature, where you can hear the birds, see the sky and listen to the wind. Bad: Over priced per room. Almost 50€, two persons, with a kind of breakfast. Rooms with an economical bulb, that didn't worked during the event, no light on the road to the toilet, I was closed to get an accident and break something, drinks was at room temperature …”
“What am I doing here? How did I land in Moldova? No idea but this place has a really good PR team because there is absolutely nothing but an old USSR vibe. Love it.”
- A one-star review considers the price of almost fifty euros for two, with a sort of breakfast, too high for what they got
- The same review faults economy bulbs that did not work during the event
- No lighting on the path to the toilet, where the writer says they nearly had an accident
- Drinks served at room temperature, with no ice, in the same review
- It is about 170 km from Chișinău, so it takes a full day of travel
- The rooms are limited, so book ahead
