Reviews
Thank you very much for the opportunity to spend our vacation in a beautiful, unique and idyllic place. The view from the balcony was wonderful. Very clean apartments with 100% everything you need.
Very tasty, fresh and natural products left at the door of the room. Delicious home-made preserves, juices, yoghurts and ciders, milk straight from the cow, eggs and vegetables and fruit picked from the garden are better than the all inclusive hotel. Very nice and helpful owners….
