Polecam wszystkim chcącym uciec przed globalizacją 😁
Pros:

Cudnie spędzony czas w gronie cudownych osób. Obiekt wpisywał się w krajobraz. Widać że lata świetności ma za sobą ale to tylko dodawało mu uroku. Personel 10/10. Kot 10/10 :D czysto i miło. Za daleko by wrócić ale polecać będę zawsze:)

Cons:

Nie było takiej rzeczy

Pros:

Struttura situata in una zona molto bella, con una splendida vista sul mare. Potenzialmente molto bella.

Cons:

Purtroppo la nostra esperienza è stata alquanto spiacevole. Mi rammarica dover lasciare una recensione negativa, ma giunti in camera la corrente era staccata, il riscaldamento non funzionava e la notte è stata fredda, tanto da non riuscire a dormire! Dopo aver sollecitato la questione più volte, ci sono state consegnate delle coperte. Ci hanno sottolineato che avrebbero mandato un tecnico per risolvere la questione, ma la seconda notte tutto è rimasto invariato, i gestori non ci hanno comunicato nulla a riguardo, come se nulla fosse...

Una bella RINFRESCATA
Pros:

Sicuramente una posizione molto bella per il panorama e il verde che lo circonda.

Cons:

Strada per arrivare molto brutta, il locale si presenta molto vecchio, per gli anni 80 credo fosse un lusso… ora siamo nel 2026 e una bella rinfrescata farebbe risaltare molto di più il posto incantevole dove si trova. C’è scritto SPA & WELLNESS, non era possibile usare il servizio causa: boh 🤷🏽‍♂️.

Cons:

Leider war der angeführte Indoor Wellnessbereich mit Sauna nicht einsatzbereit.
Hotelanlage ist insgesamt stark abgewohnt und defekte Teile scheinen kaum noch repariert zu werden. Gehwege zwischen den Schlafhäusern und dem Restaurantbereich werden zur Stolpergefahr.

Pros:

posizione invidiabile molto bella, staff disponibile e gentile

Cons:

hotel che ha visto tempi migliori ovunque si respira aria di vecchio, struttura che necessita di ristrutturazione profonda .
Sicuramente struttura non più 4 stelle ... centro benessere promesso ma inesistente.
