If you are booking on a budget, take your expectations and lower them again. This property appears nicer on the pics than in person. The breakfast is pre packaged croissants and a fruit bowl placed in your room. We had to text the property everytime we wanted to shower with hot water and often it was like warm - maybe for eco friendly reasons? The power went out for several hours one day and we were told it was all around town, which it was not. We did not have blankets the first night, but once we asked, Claudia (who was wonderful and helpful) quickly brought them. The property is not far from a section of the lagoon, but it is not very close to the center of town or the area of the lagoon that is considered seven colors. Claudia was the best offering for this property, and she had to often wait for responses from her “manager” who was not helpful or responsive when I told him I had medication in our refrigerator that needed to be cold after the power had been out for hours and the mini fridge lost its coldness.

Es sind kleine Unterkünfte, kein Hotel. Wir haben den Schlüssel in der Tür stecken gehabt und sind so auch wieder gegangen - mit der Gastgeberin hatten wir nur per WhatsApp Kontakt. Die Unterkunft (Nr. 2) war klein und zweckmäßig eingerichtet. Alles ist etwas in die Jahre gekommen und man merkt und sieht den Wänden und Decken die Feuchtigkeit an. Es gab aber keinen (!) Schimmel und die Unterkunft war so sauber wie sie nur hätte sein können! Es ist eine sehr einfache Unterkunft. Unser Style war es nicht und wir haben die Chance genutzt früher abzureisen. Wenn einem weniger Komfort, etwas älteres Interieur & Exterieur und 'insgesamt einfacher' nichts ausmacht, kann dort definitiv 1-3 Nächte rumkriegen. Ist auf jeden Fall eher nur zum Schlafen und nicht um den Tag dort zu verbringen.

Super bel endroit, convivial, près de tout, au calme pour dormir. 👌 Le mini-déjeuner a été apprécié. La dame qui s’occupe de l’endroit habite sur place alors le service est rapide. Elle est de plus vraiment sympathique! ❤️
