    This is a first floor unit, so you can go straight out the sliding door into the garden. It also had beach chairs, a cooler, a beach umbrella and boogie boards. That was a big bonus!

    Das Resort liegt direkt am Meer und bietet einige Aussenaktivitäten, wie Tennis, Boccia, Minigolf und auch Beachvolleyball. Das Interior und das Bad ist etwas in die Jahre gekommen, das hat uns aber nicht gestört. Es war alles sauber.

    Loved how close it was to hiking trails and the beautiful beach. Watching sunrises while jogging or riding bikes just outside on the path was a highlight of the trip!
