wunderbar! wir kommen wieder
Pros:

Ein Aufenthalt im "The Reids" ist ein besonderes Erlebnis.
Die zuvorkommenden und freundlichen Mitarbeiter(innen), die Sauberkeit, der Pool und die Badeanlage am Meer und vor allem das traumhafte und vielfältige Frühstück - wie in einem Märchen.

Cons:

Die Mitarbeiter im frisch renovierten Restaurant "Cipriani" waren sehr bemüht und engagiert, das Essen dort war ausgezeichnet - aber das Ambiente und Flair wirkt noch etwas "nüchtern" und bei voller Belegung aller Tische im Innenbereich entsteht ein hoher Geräuschpegel.
