Schöne Gegend, Unterkunft mit Mängeln
Pros:

Die grundsätzliche Lage ist sehr schön am Strand mit guten Restaurants in der Nähe. Das Personal war sehr nett, das Frühstück toll. Die Bungalows an sich in Ordnung.

Cons:

Der deluxe Bungalow Nr 6 liegt direkt neben der Rezeption, es ist ein permanentes Kommen und Gehen, wenig Privatsphäre. Man blickt eher auf den Parkplatz als auf schöne Vegetation und das Meer. Auf den Fotos wird das natürlich nicht gezeigt. Die Klimaanlage fiel immer wieder aus und das bei mind. 36 Grad. Das Bad sollte renoviert werden.
