    The accommodation was really great, the staff was always willing and accommodating. We would recommend putting some shelves or a cabinet in the room, because the space where we could put things for 4 people was quite limited.

    We stayed in the „Comfort hut“ equipped with AC which was definitely needed during the night. The hut was clean, comfortable and very quiet during the night. Staff was very friendly and helpful! The location was very central and close to the beach.
