Pros:

Hotel super agréable, le petit dej est bien sympa avec la venue de jolis oiseaux. Les chambres sont calmes.
Staff très sympa et à l'écoute.
Très paisible de bouquiner sur les terrasses.

Cons:

En effet c'est un petit peu loin de Samara mais la ville n'a pas énormément de charme et est très "fêtards". L'hôtel sol samara offre une bulle plus fraîche et relaxante.

Pros:

Estremamente silenzioso e tranquillo, carino, buona cucina (sia colazione che cena), buona location in termini di vicinanza alla spiaggia, 10 minuti di macchina dal paese, alcune ragazze dello staff molto gentili, la stanza appena consegnata era molto pulita e accogliente

Cons:

Abbiamo avuto un grande problema di formiche che ci hanno invaso la stanza in maniera massiva, nonostante la segnalazione e la promessa da parte loro di occuparsene al nostro ritorno era ancora invasa, una ragazza ha spruzzato nella stanza uno spray e l’ha chiusa lí, abbiamo dovuto creare delle barriere fisiche con degli asciugamani per evitare che le formiche entrassero dagli spifferi della porta finestra e abbiamo “risolto” il problema.
La pulizia delle stanze doveva essere fatta ogni giorno e invece per due volte su 4 sono venuti a bussare proprio quando siamo tornati dal mare con il bimbo che dormiva (dopo averci visto rientrare), abbiamo chiesto passassero in un altro momento e non l’hanno mai fatto, ho dovuto due volte portare io la spazzatura perché non la venivano a ritirare e dovevo andare a sollecitare che mi dessero un sacchetto da mettere in bagno per sostituirla.
La piscina era sporchissima, inavvicinabile.

Für eine Nacht zur Durchreise okay
Pros:

Großes Zimmer mit kleinem Kühlschrank und guter Klimaanlage. Grüne, gepflegte Außenanlage mit privaten Parkplatz.

Cons:

Das Personal war leider nicht besonders freundlich und zuvorkommen, vielleicht weil sie nur schlecht englisch sprechen. Vom Restaurant waren wir sehr enttäuscht, Preis-Leistung stimmt hier leider überhaupt nicht. Der Pool war leider auch nicht besonders einladend.

Lovely, clean and quiet place to call home.
Pros:

Liked it enough to arrange an extra stay. Staff fabulous! Good breakfast. Short walk to a nice beach. Easy walk, on the beach, to Samara. Nice local restaurants, close by, on the beach.

Cons:

Nothing not to like! A car would have been helpful but the hotel drove us in their car.
