"The hotel is very comfortable and the hotel is very comfortable. Eating is OK... even if there is something to revisit especially in the variation of food and making fruit available... staff is very kind. The only sin is the organization for the entertainment of guests.. animation almost inexistent being a resort!"

"Health is OK, the bed is very soft. There is air conditioning, hair dryer, small refrigerator. Meals are OK, Italian food. Close to the beach, it is relatively quiet at night, the pool is managed, but it is not changed every day. The hotel is small and there are no other facilities. The boss should be Italian, the dog Italian manager sees us as Asian faces, like owe the mother money, bad review!"
