Bei längeren Reisen braucht man manchmal ein zu Hause. Und genau das haben wir im Ressort erreicht. Ein sehr gut ausgestattetes Apartment mit Blick auf das Meer. Freundliche und schnelle Kommunikation mit der Managerin Lisa. Ein unglaublich wunderschöner gepflegter Garten mit Pool. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und uns sehr gut erholt.
