"Le personnel est aux petits soins., toujours avec le sourire. Le club de plongée est très bien, pro et sérieux. La nourriture au resto est bonne mais pas un choix énorme. Tout est très propre. Par contre les chambres, tout en étant assez grandes manquent un peu de déco. . Si vous voulez que le ménage soit fait dans la chambre, il faut le demander sinon on ne vous le fera pas. L'emplacement est absolument génial et contrebalance la simplicité des lieux, très tranquilles par ailleurs. "

"Staff is hopeless - not unfriendly but unwilling to help. We were 4 people sharing an apparment, but we could only have 1 key to the door. The reception is not open 24/7 that why, we had major problems only having 1 key. After many and long discussions with the staff, we gave and survived 2 days with just one key. The restaurant is expensive and food is bad. The appartment is nive. Kitchen, 2 bedrooms with bathrooms and a nice livingroom. There were good moments, but we will never come back"
