Coup de coeur pour ce petit hôtel boutique. Personnel chaleureux, endroit charmant! À quelques minutes de la plage et du parc! Nous avons adoré notre séjour plus que parfait. Nous avons également apprécié la piscine. Et le jeune homme de l’hôtel nous a référé au splendide restaurant el escondito! Gros coup de coeur!!
