Kind and helpful staff, super location, great food, marvelous breakfast and confortable accommodation.
Pros:

Beach front hotel with nature, terrasse restaurant with sea view, clean beach

Cons:

There is no point that I particulary disliked, an impovement point could be the bathroom renovation so that it could look more modern or typical.

Una volta arrivati sull' isola va tutto bene. Il problema è arrivarci se non si è prenotato l' aereo
Pros:

Ottima la colazione, ottima la pulizia, buono il comfort e i servizi, gentile e attento lo staff. Piscina gradevole.

Cons:

Insufficiente la cena a buffet, non all'altezza delle aspettative il mare che bagna l' hotel, per fare un bagno discreto bisogna spostarsi in auto e/o in barca.

Pros:

Accueil du personnel parfait.Proprete sur l’ensemble.Petit déjeuner correct.

Cons:

Pas de clef pour la chambre , il fallait passer par la réception et etre accompagné, après mainte plaintes , le directeur nous a donné une autre chambre. De plus le réveillon à 60€ / personne vraiment la déception, aucune ambiance et le buffet même pas de cocktails Que des jus allongés à l’eau.Pas de plats dignes d’un réveillon. La salle à manger , d’une tristesse vraiment il est vieillissant à part les chambres bien .
