Appartement très grand, idéal pour 4 personnes. Vaste salle de bains. Ménage fait tous les jours. Petit bémol pour ceux qui souhaitent cuisiner : il n'y avait rien dans les placards (mais on aurait pu demander le nécessaire mais nous avions choisi de manger à l'extérieur). Excellent petit déjeuner à l'hôtel. Attention : piscine intégrée au spa et donc payante (15 € par adulte et 7.50 € par enfant).
