Siamo stati in questa struttura solo una notte purtroppo ma possiamo ritenerci completamente soddisfatti. Il proprietario e lo staff sono fantastici e sono stati completamente a nostra disposizione per ogni esigenza. La struttura è bellissima, silenziosa, pulita e a 2 minuti dalla spiaggia. Consiglio sotto tutti i punti di vista. Grazie ancora e a presto!
