Et svært behagelig, stille, koselig og rolig sted, tross størrelsen på hotellet.
Pros:

Frokosten og uteplassen vi nøt den på var helt fantastisk. Så mye å velge imellom, og så delikat presentert. Personalet var effektive og veldig hyggelige. En av de beste frokostopplevelser vi har hatt!

Cons:

Vi fant ingenting som kunne vært bedre. Vi fikk det vi betalte for + litt mer.

Pros:

Amazing pools, many options to entertain a 5yo such as mini golf. The food was excellent. The restaurant was very nice. The hotel is so green and filled with beautiful plants, and our room was very big with a really nice bathroom.

Cons:

Not a dealbreaker but the staff was a bit too serious, and especially the restaurant manager, he was rude just because we sat down on a 4-people table (we were 3), and it was our first night, we didn't know the rules. There was no need to be rude to us just because we made a small mistake.

wunderschöne Parkanlage

Cons:

Besetzung der Pool-Liegen durch die Gäste, die sich ganz offensichtlich das Recht herausnehmen, Liegen bereits in den frühen Morgenstunden zu belegen für später
Situationen am Frühstücksbuffet mit den Gästen.

Pros:

Gostámos muito da vegetação abundante, do sossego das piscinas, onde encontrávamos sempre espreguiçadeiras com guarda-sol sem dificuldade e com uma envolvente muito tropical. Muitas areas comuns e zonas de estar muito agradáveis também para passar as horas de maior calor ou os serões. Pequeno-almoço muito bom, muito diversificado, com fruta excelente e outros produtos de muita qualidade.

Cons:

O buffet do jantar deixava um pouco a desejar. Havia muita variedade e por isso era fácil encontrar sempre algo de que gostávamos, mas alguns pratos estavam um pouco aquém do desejado, em especial as sobremesas que pareciam muito apetitosas, mas que desiludiam frequentemente.
