Super hôtel extrêmement calme. Calme d’un cottage avec la qualité et des prestation digne d’un super hôtel
Pros:

La vue et le calme sont exceptionnel dans cet établissement

Cons:

Rien à signaler. Le rapport qualité prix n’est pas optimal mais la qualité de l’hôtel et la vue couvre bien ce problème.

Beautiful room and excellent service!
Pros:

perfect room, wonderful dinner and great service!

Cons:

We did get alive but bugs the last night but our room backed up to the water. Just wish the windows had screen or something available for “summer months” because the room was so hot but the bugs were worse.
