Schönes Hotel
Pros:

Das Zimmer war groß, sauber und geräumig. Das Bad sehr modern und chic.

Cons:

Leider war der Strad vor dem Hotel nicht nutzbar. Der Pool nebenan darf erst ab 16 Jahren genutzt werden, dass war ein Manko für unseren 12 jährigen Enkel.

Pros:

Die Wohnung war einfach nur top und sehr Luxuriös für den Preis. Es war sehr viel Platz und wir hatten eine privaten Pool und kostenlosen Parkplatz direkt vor der Wohnung. Es liegt zwar etwas abgelegen, aber dadurch ist es auch schön ruhig und man hört das Meeresrauschen besser 😊. Sehr zu empfehlen.

Pros:

la chambre correspond aux photos, confortable et assez spacieuse pour 1 nuit
la possibilité d'utiliser la piscine de l'hotel voisin

Cons:

le manque d'intimité de la douche et toilettes (mais visible dans les photos). Dommage que les chambres avec sdb fermée n'offrent pas de lits jumeaux.
la vue sur un mur
l'hotel se trouve dans un village qui semble à l'abandon
