Très bon séjour
Pros:

Salle petit déjeuner magnifique face à la baie, et superbe petit déjeuner.

Cons:

Rien ... si ce n'est l'absence de vue sur l'océan.
Pas assez de rangements et de patères pour accrocher les serviettes.

Really enjoyable stay. Great family solution for teenage kids. Lovely beach and location!
Pros:

Lovely location looking out on the beach with buses right outside to the centre. Good breakfast. Good family room solution, two rooms with an adjoining corridor was perfect t with our teenage children. Maybe not suitable for young children.

Cons:

Staff weren’t particularly friendly.
