Wunderschöne Aussicht

Die Kommunikation mit dem Vermieter Garry war unkompliziert und funktionierte gut. Das Apartment war groß und geräumig, die Küche gut ausgestattet. Die Terrasse sehr schön und mit einer atemberaubenden Aussicht. Der Pool auch wirklich schön, hätte öfter gereinigt werden können sowie der Bereich um den Pool. Ich kann das Apartment nur empfehlen. Es war ein schöner Urlaub.

Great location, lovely pool, wonderful days

The apartment is clean. Great views over the ocean. Kids absolutely loved the pool. Mind that there are no separate bedrooms, our apartment had 2 rooms, one with livingarea and bed, one with kitchen, a wooden roomdivider and bed. We enjoyed our stay very much!
