Luksus, ro og mad i særklasse.

Uovertruffet. Meget smuk have. Roen er gennemgribende. Værelser, service og restaurant var helt i top. Vores tjener, Raj, var fantastisk. Han leverede på øverste hylde. Maden var i særklasse.

Una perla

Splendida struttura, con spa e servizi connessi eccellenti. Personale di alto livello molto preparato e gentile che ti fa sentire sempre a tuo agio. Camere molto spaziose, confortevoli e tranquille. Peccato essere rimasto una sola notte. Un vero hotel a 5 stelle, una perla.

I love this place. The decor and the grounds were amazing. I loved the name plate at the dinner tables. I truly enjoyed the spa. It’s a small hotel of 30 rooms and that I like, not crowded. I really enjoyed my stay there and will definitely go back.
