With underfloor heating, air conditioning, and changing facilities (including baby changing), it provides a year-round tropical ambience.
Family Facilities
Guests can relax on the sun terrace or in the cottage gardens, while children enjoy the Wendy House in the courtyard, complete with outdoor toys and bikes.
