« Esperienza indimenticabile. Abbiamo passato una settimana speciale, mangiato benissimo, posto non troppo caotico, animazione leggera e non insistente. Il mare fronte resort meraviglioso a momenti ma così si visitano le altre isole perciò va bene. Direttore simpatico e sul pezzo, mi ha anche lasciato la bag da mare in regalo. Anche economico direi abbiamo preso qualche cocktail per il dopo cena e speso pochissimo. Assolutamente 5 stelle. » - Oct. 2022
