Great Family Getaway
Pros:

Loved the views, my kids enjoyed the heated pools and the water slides, seamless check in and check out. Everything that is needed in a self catering unit can be found.

Cons:

The shower is very outdated, the water leaks out of the bathtub. It could do with a upgrade, just a regular stand-in shower will be great.

Pros:

Das Abendessen/Restaurant und die idyllische Umgebung.

Cons:

Das Hallenbad war dreckig. Leider wirklich ecklig. Wir haben viele Haare im Wasser festgestellt daher sind wir nicht ins Wasser rein gegangen, was sehr enttäuchend war.

Die Straße zum Resort wird saniert. Der Weg war unübersichtlich mit fehlender Beschilderung.

Pros:

כפר נופש יפיפיה , עם הרבה אטרקציות

Cons:

מיקום רחוק מהכביש הראשי אבל הכביש היה בשיפוץ אולי זה ישתפר, הבית שקיבלנו היה חשוך וישן מאוד אבל נראה שיש חדרים טובים יותר

Keine gute Erfahrung
Pros:

Lage ist gut.

Cons:

Keine Antwort ist auch eine Antwort. Wenn man zweimal nach einem verlorenen Gegenstand fragt und keine Antwort bekommt, ist das einfach nur schlechte Dienstleistung. Ein einfaches 'wir haben nichts' hätte gereicht....

Disappointed
Pros:

The entertainment staff and the cleaning staff were friendly. Reception so so. The warm pool was lovely and thee entertainment- putt putt, darts and pool was enjoyable even though some stuff was apparently stolen by guests. I think they can look after stuff better. River was beautiful

Cons:

The unit we stayed in this time was disappointing. No river view. Not enough utensils. Bath and toilet was leaking and unhygienic. Room was not cleaned properly after previous guests. Sanitary pad still in bin. No broom or washing cloth. Only enough welcome soap and shampoo given for two people even though we booked for 4 people
