Sehr nette Gastwirtin und hervorragendes Frühstück

Die Lage ist sehr gut, dadurch bedingt hört man nachts relativ viel vom Verkehr

Wonderful family holiday

10.0

Everything was fantastic. We had delicious breakfasts every day with a good selection of foods on offer. The room was immaculately clean, and the bed was so comfy, I wish we could have taken it with us! The ultimate bonus was the pool, which we all loved, especially the kids. Our hosts were both amazing, so friendly and accommodating. The hotel is so conveniently located. Close to the town and beach but still lovely and quiet, a lovely riviera feel. Thank you Lisa and Christophe.

Nothing, everything was great

Rundum gelungener Urlaub in einem super schönen Hotel, wozu die Gastgeber sehr beigetragen haben!

10.0

Außergewöhnlich gutes, kleines Hotel! Das Frühstück war phantastisch, wurde jeden Morgen frisch zubereitet. Die Gastgeber Lisa und Christophe sind außerordentlich freundlich und zuvorkommend. Die "Kaffeebar" auf dem Zimmer wurde jeden Tag neu bestückt. Das ganze Anwesen ist sehr gepflegt und weitläufig, es gab viele Möglichkeiten, sich im Freien aufzuhalten. Der kleine Pool war sauber, lag direkt vor unser Tür und sehr erfrischend. Unser Zimmer war zwar klein (was uns allerdings nicht gestört hat), verfügte aber über eine Terrasse mit Sitzmöglichkeiten.

Es gibt nichts, was uns nicht gefallen hat!!

Would highly recommend a stay!

10.0

The house and grounds are beautiful! The views are amazing! The pool is warm and inviting. The owners are friendly and welcoming, and extremely helpful. The breakfasts are delicious and the scrambled egg was the best I've tasted! Everywhere was very clean and tidy. The property is just over a mile from the harbour and town but only 5mins walk to the beach. Plenty of amenities nearby. This is a home from home, very relaxing and we would highly recommend a stay!
