Décevant et service catastrophique !
Dans l'ensemble, nous avons été très déçus. Nous avions une très belle image de Center Parcs et finalement, ce n'était pas du tout au niveau du prix payé. Points positifs: - La qualité de la lodge que nous avions réservé (Exclusive 2 personnes) - Tranquillité et calme. Le paysage est très beau et c'est très grand. - Beaucoup de structures de jeux pour les enfants - La ferme pédagogique pour les enfants Points négatifs : - Aucun restaurant n'était bon... Et ils sont tous très chers ! - Service à fuir !!! 45 min pour avoir une gaufre, aucune possibilité de réserver un restaurant pour nouvel an alors que lors de notre réservation, on nous a dit qu'aucune réservation n'était possible par téléphone... Nous attendons toujours que le manager nous appelle, il devait le faire le 31 pour trouver une solution de dernière minute... - 90% des activités sont payantes et hors de prix (p. ex. 36e pour 1h de bowling...) - Le petit Carrefour sur place est hors de prix également (22euros pour 4 buchettes de cheminée (oui oui rien n'est fourni dans la lodge) et ils n'avaient même plus de briquets à nous vendre!! - Les installations sont dans l'ensemble vieillissantes et très mal entretenues, voire sales pour certaines. - Le spa (payant en supplément, 29 euros pour 2h) n'est pas du tout calme, les gens parlent à voix haute et il est également vieillissant, peu propre et tisane même pas disponible =service décevant Nous étions venus nous détendre, nous sommes repartis très frustrés du séjour...
