“It was very special being next to the olive tree orchard.”
We did not require the breakfast, checked out early. We enjoyed the peace and quiet and cleanliness. The rooms were warm thanks to the wall panel heaters. The girls played on the grass and we felt safe.

“Enjoyable, but probably more suitable for the younger generation.”
We stayed in Apartment 5, which is beautifully appointed with stunning views, fully equipped kitchen and large rooms with luxurious bedding. The milk and waters in the fridge was a nice touch.

“Fabulous”
Absolutely incredible views, boutique style hotel with the most beautiful outdoor seating area. Amazing view from the room, a short drive from the city center but it was beautiful and worth the money. We were sad to leave.
