点评:When I arrived, an employee first informed me that I had to pay for parking. I accepted this charge and was prepared to pay it.
However, I then explained that I wanted to stay on the beach using my own towel and sit directly on the sand/rocks. I did not want to use a sunbed or umbrella.
The employee told me that I could not stay there because it was a “private beach” and that I had to pay to use one of their sunbeds.
After I questioned this and explained that I did not want to use their sunbeds, the employee called the owner/manager, together with another employee. The three of them then approached me together. Their manner and the situation made me feel intimidated and pressured to leave.
I was not asking to use their sunbeds, umbrellas, or any other paid service. I simply wanted to sit on the beach with my own towel.
Because of the additional demand and the way the situation developed, I did not pay the parking fee either and decided to leave the beach.
I find this treatment extremely disappointing and concerning. As a tourist visiting Albania, I came to enjoy its beautiful coastline, not to be told that I cannot sit on the beach unless I purchase a private service.
If this is a public beach, I would like the authorities to clarify how an operator can claim that it is a “private beach” and prevent visitors from sitting on the beach without renting a sunbed. If the area is legally designated for private use, I would also like to know the legal basis and the conditions under which the operator is permitted to restrict access.
I am particularly concerned about the way the situation was handled after I questioned the demand. Having the owner/manager and another employee come over together made me feel intimidated as a tourist and was completely unnecessary.
Practices like this are killing tourism. Visitors who experience this kind of treatment may leave with a very negative impression of Albania and may choose not to return or recommend the country to others.
I respectfully request that the competent authorities investigate this situation and verify whether the operator’s practices comply with Albanian law and regulations concerning public beach access and beach concessions.
翻译:我到达后,一名员工首先告诉我必须支付停车费。我接受了这一收费规定,也准备付款。
不过,随后我解释说我想用自己的毛巾待在海滩上,直接坐在沙滩或岩石上。我并不想使用他们的日光浴床或遮阳伞。
那名员工却告诉我,我不能那样做,因为那是“私人海滩”,我必须付费才能使用他们提供的日光浴床。在我对此提出疑问并说明自己并不想使用他们的日光浴床后,那名员工叫来了店主/经理以及另一名员工。随后三人一起朝我走来。他们的态度以及当时的情形让我感到害怕,并迫使我离开。
我并未要求使用他们的日光浴床、遮阳伞或任何其他付费服务。我只是想带着自己的毛巾在海滩上坐一坐而已。
由于需求增加以及事态的演变方式,我也没有支付停车费,于是决定离开海滩。
这种对待方式让我极为失望且担忧。作为一个来阿尔巴尼亚旅游的游客,我是想欣赏这里美丽的海岸线,而不是被告知除非购买付费服务,否则就不能坐在海滩上。
如果这确实是一处公共海滩,我希望相关部门能解释一下:一家运营商凭什么能宣称这里是“私人海滩”,并禁止游客在不租用日光浴躺椅的情况下坐在海滩上呢?如果该区域在法律上被指定为私人使用区,我也希望了解相关的法律依据,以及运营方在何种条件下才被允许限制进入。
我尤其不满的是,在我对这一要求提出质疑后事态的处理方式。业主/经理和另一名员工一同前来,这让我作为游客感到受到威胁,而这种做法完全没有必要。
此类行为正在毁掉旅游业。遭受此类对待的游客可能会对阿尔巴尼亚留下极其负面的印象,从而选择不再回访或向他人推荐这个国家。
我恳请相关主管部门调查此情况,核实该经营者的行为是否符合阿尔巴尼亚关于公共海滩准入及海滩特许经营方面的法律法规。
