This resort offers a clean and comfortable stay with a lovely relaxing environment surrounded by nature. The cottages are cozy and well-kept, making it a great option for families looking to unwind. However, the breakfast could use improvement, and the pricing feels quite high for what is offered. On the positive side, the easy access to the beach is a definite highlight, along with the variety of recreational activities available.

The resort offers a beautiful natural setting with clean and cozy cottages, perfect for a relaxing getaway. I truly enjoyed the variety of outdoor activities available, including minigolf and nature trails. However, the breakfast could use some improvement to match the quality of the other amenities. Also, I found the overall price a bit steep, especially since not all facilities are included in the cost.

The resort offers a clean and contemporary environment with spacious pitches right next to the beach. There are plenty of activities available, including mini golf and a golf course. Although the amenities are great, the high pricing and lack of common sauna access were letdowns. The free wood for barbecuing was a nice touch, making it feel more homey.

I had a surprisingly good experience at this hotel. The room was small but recently renovated, clean, and had a nice view with its own balcony. Unfortunately, the breakfast left something to be desired, although it was reasonably priced. The amenities were enjoyable, but not all were included, which was a bit of a letdown. Overall, a solid place, but there are areas for improvement.
