Rosario Resort

Rosario Resort

10/10 Excellent
"We liked the location and the view. The room was a bit tight. Considering it comes with a kitchenette at a bigger price, we expected to see a larger space. Overall, is a no contact service, and nobody cleans the room during our stay. For a longer period, this would probably be an inconvenience. Overall, considering the circumstances of being on a island, we loved our stay. servi"
