Allt man kan önska för en avslappnad semester
Fantastiskt fint hotellkomplex precis vid den långa vita stranden, två jätte fräscha poolområden och en restaurang som serverade jättegod mat, både till frukost lunch och middag. Frukost menyn var kanon., kan varmt rekommendera avokado toasten. Otroligt gästvänlig personal, kom gärna tillbaka.
