We had a lovely stay in a most comfortable bungalow at a location that was an easy walk to town, restaurants and parks.

9.0

Great garden bungalow with comfortable room and lovely veranda sitting area. Lovely pool area and perfect location.

A few depleted fittings including curtains that didn’t close properly. Pool tiles were a bit slippery inside the pool.

L’accueil, la piscine, la végétation sur place - la nature en ville

Prix un peu trop élevé pour une chambre standard
