Great relaxing holiday we cooked ourselves prefer than eating in the same restaurant every day Didn't no about extra costs like water and electricity charge so that was a bit of a problem but that was the booking company's fault not the hotel We would go back there

Villaggio enorme, spiaggia e giardini sono il punto di forza, servizio di ristorazione di buon livello, anche se un po' ripetitivo, ad eccezione del ristorante di pesce su prenotazione, che ha poca scelta rispetto a quello centrale e di qualità non di certo superiore. Nota dolente la camera Village da 4, decisamente da ristrutturare e con spazi non adeguati per ospitare un letto a castello. Armadio insufficiente per 4 persone. Servizio di navetta per la spiaggia efficiente. Animazione molto discreta, impianto audio scarso e, quando funzionava, il volume era troppo alto, specialmente in piscina: impossibile parlare con il vicino di sdraio! Comodo il bus di linea tumino per visitare i dintorni a prezzi pari a un decimo delle escursioni proposte dal villaggio, verificare gli orari aggiornati sul sito tuminobus perché l'hotel di certo non promuove il servizio.

Bravi. Si puo fare di piu
Tutto ok. Non da 4 stelle ma da tre.Da rilevare solo la mancanza di un bracetto mobile alla doccia composta solo da soffione. Le donne con piega ai capelli non riescono a usarla.e poi magari un maniglione per tenersi. Viaggiavo con disabili Il resto magnifico, dal cibo alla posizione alle attivita da fare. Pedalo e canoe gratis Nella baia accanto sorge una muraglia di argilla verde ottima per la pelle

Flot og velholdt resort
Lækkert velholdt resort. Vi ( 2 voksne+ 4 børn) havde en rummelig lejlighed med stor terrasse og græsplæne. Vi boede 75 meter fra hotel og pool, men var ikke generet af larm. Resortet havde privat strand, og gratis bus, der kørte de 5 km frem og tilbage. Supermarked, minigolf, pizzaria og flere poolområder Eneste lille minus er, at stedet ligger lidt afsides, hvis ikke man har lejebil.

Esperienza tutto sommato positiva. la struttura si presenta molto bene ordinata e pulita, per la precisione ho pernottato in un appartamento monolocale posto al piano mansardato in una delle tante palazzine dislocate all'interno di tutto residence. il corpo centrale sicuramente è il pezzo forte di questo residence, chi soggiorna in hotel dispone anche di un centro fitness, piscina ,animazione, bar e ristorante ovviamente per usufruire di questi servizi c'è da pagare un prezzo decisamente più elevato rispetto agli appartamenti.

Perché no?!
Nel Complesso il soggiorno è stato di ma gradimento Il resort ha tutto quello che si può chiedere in un piccolo paese di 1400 anime Il personale troppo attento alla burocrazia di gestione e ciò implica il fatto di dover sorvolare alle attenzioni che ogni ospite ricerca Insomma l'ospite è un numero come tanti altri Confusione alla reception dove un giorno ho pagato il supplemento intero per mia figlia per aderire alla colazione il giorno dopo parlando con un'altra resina mia figlia di 10 anni doveva pagare il50%.,.. Cose che succedono ma il cliente ci fa caso Inoltre cosa per cui mi fa dubitare molto sulla gestione che all'interno del resort non c'è un punto di primo soccorso ASSURDO!!! Comunque buona esperienza!!!
