“The hotel had a nice setup with a cosy yard/garden with beautiful plants. 200m to the beach. Easy walking if you are reasonably fit, but there is also a bus shuttle from the hotel. (Useful to have a car if you want to explore other places)”

“Территории отеля очень красивая и ухоженная. Близко к великолепному пляжу и ни разу не пользовались трансфером, потому что идти около 5 минут. В семейном номере 2 отдельные комнаты. Предоставлялся полноценный завтрак. Уборка каждый день....”
