Pros:

Ystävällinen henkilökunta ja siisti hotellialue. Sijainti hyvä lähellä rantaa, ravintoloita ja kauppoja. Aamupala riittävä ja todella kauniisti katettu.

Pros:

tolle Bungalows, sehr gepflegter schöner Garten mit tollen Pflanzen, bequemes Bett, 7–Eleven
um die Ecke, kostenloser Shuttle von/zur Fähre

Cons:

kein wirkliches Tageslicht in den Bungalows und daher sehr dunkel, Badezimmer sehr warm, Preis-Leistung wäre stimmiger wenn ein a la carte Frühstück angeboten werden würde (zumal das Resort ein Restaurant/Cafe hat), Strand ist ein Stück zu laufen

Overbooked and not beach front
Cons:

The property was advertised as beach front - it is not - it is about 5/10 minute walk away.
We paid to stay in a bungalow and we were put into another house - not as nice. The booking board behind reception revealed that this was due to the company over booking the rooms. There was no refund or compensation offered for this.

Mooie huisje en tuin , erg mooi
Pros:

De huisjes en tuin zijn prachtig, eten is top

Cons:

We hadden 3 huisjes besteld voor ons gezin meer dan half jaar geleden, maar helaas was 1 huisje pas een dag later beschikbaar, was helaas wat teleurstellend. Er werd wel een appartement beschikbaar gesteld voor die nacht wat prima was, maar je had het anders voorgesteld. Samen met je gezin.

Pros:

Mökki oli aivan ihana, kuten koko miljöö. Oli siistiä ja kaikki tarpeellinen. Henkilökunta oli todella ystävällistä! Ihania kissoja oli heidän apureinaan mikä piristi oleskelua täällä. Rannalle käveli 5 min, lähellä paljon hyviä ravintoloita sekä kauppoja.

Cons:

Valitettavasti alueella oli aivan kauhea meteli jatkuvasti enkä saanut koko oleilun aikana nukuttua kunnolla.

Ras

Pros:

Det var et virkelig hyggeligt overnatningssted. Vi kom helt ned i gear og fik slappet meget af.

Personalet var simpelthen så søde og altid smilende. Du kunne få rengjort dit værelse, når som helst og maden var fantastisk på stedet.
