Our “Seaview bungalow” was a 15 x 15 m2 room without any windows. No bathroom, just a small shower. I would recommend anyone coming here to ask to have a look at their “bungalow” before checking in. Also very dirty, old dust and dirt. See enclosed photos. We will not come back.

Excellent place. Amazing food (actually too good). Nice staff. Only downer is a 100 euro "climate crisis tax" slapped on your bill at the end. If you're going to obligatorily add 100 euros to a bill. You should say this at the time of booking. When do we draw the line on this? A "water crisis tax" of 20,000 euros slapped on a check out bill? I realise it's not all their fault. But more could be done.
