C'è tanto da fare
Bellissima location, anche se le camere sono asettiche, non valgono il prezzo richiesto. Gli spazi comuni sono stupendi, la piscina molto bella, ma la colazione non è all'altezza (affettati scadenti e frutta poco fresca).

Ottima posizione , favoloso castello, le camere stupende e comodissime è molto pulite . L unica nota un po’ deludente il bar chiuso già alle 21.30 e poco accogliente e gentile la signora alla reception.

Vivere un mare incredibile con tutti i comfort
Posizione straordinaria su uno dei mari più belli del mondo. Struttura molto curata e pulita. Personale gentilissimo.
Il castello è molto seggestivo ed è posto a strapiombo sul mare. Di recente restauro e impeccabile nella pulizia e ambientazione. Le camere matrimoniali standard sono un po’ piccole. Colazione ottima.

Posizione incantevole,struttura molto bella, soggiorno magnifico, mare spettacolare, personale molto disponibile e cordiale. Per colmare l'ultimo passo vs la perfezione (veramente per ospiti esigenti come me): piccolo stenditoio per i costumi bagnati, rafforzare il wifi e migliorare la colazione per renderla adeguata all'elevato standing della struttura.
