Nice cabin in a nice area.

We had a nice 1 night stay in sauna cabin. Overall stay was positive and it was okay value. Would I stay again... Yes I would. We did have one problem and that was our check in. I do understand that the check in is not until 3pm but If customers arrive early maybe you could try to prioritize the cleaning so that you clean those cabins first where you know customer has already arrived. We arrived 1.15pm and were told cabin is not ready. We said fine and went on way. Returned 2.45pm. Were told cabin not ready again?? Why?? In the end we got to our cabin 3.10pm which I could call late if I want to. I don't know what is the reason to this and I don't think I even need to. Not a pleasant experience.

Merenranta camping

Yövyimme suihkullisessa kahden hengen mökissä. Mökki oli siisti sisältä. Ulkoapäin aika kuluneen oloinen. Sängyt oli todella pehmeät. Rauhallinen alus, kun ei ollut ruuhkaa ja merivesi vielä liian kylmää uimiseen. Lähellä oleva luontopolku vie kauniille kalliorannalle, suosittelen.

Siisti ja toimiva saunamökki, ihana alue!

Saunamökki oli ihanan rauhallinen, siisti ja tilava. Helteillä mökki oli tosin hyvin kuuma, eikä mökissä ollut ilmastointia (ymmärrettävää, ja tämä toki oli tiedossa jo etukäteen). Hyttysverkkoja ei ole kaikissa avattavissa ikkunoissa, mutta onneksi itikoita ei ollut. Keittiötasoilla oli pieniä muurahaisia, mutta se kuuluu kesään! Kaikki Santalahdessa toimi mainiosti ja ystävällinen henkilökunta piristi. Jätteiden kierrätykseen toivoisin kiinnitettävän huomiota - biojätteen keräys ja esim muovinkierrätys olisi nykyaikaa, mutta emme löytäneet tältä alueelta sellaista. Koiraystävällinen leirintäalue, siitä plussaa! :)

Siisti mökki, jonka rauhallista ilmapiiriä männikön keskellä, meren läheisyydessä, kuvannee hyvin seurueeseen kuuluneen kuusivuotiaan luonnehdinta herättyään: "Minua nukutti ihanasti."

Прекрасные выходные в Santalahti

Без машины не добраться. Находится на берегу Финского залива на одном из островов города Котка. Рядом пляж, волейбольная площадка. Красивая природа вокруг, тишина, полное расслабление. Коттеджи расположены среди живописных валунов на склоне холма. Внутри было чисто, кровати удобные. Нам очень понравилось это место, обязательно вернемся сюда еще.
