Admirable and clean accommodation!

Mit Auto ca 25 Minuten von Pula entfernt. Pool war toll, aber Wasser hat in den Augen mächtig gebrannt. Zimmer sind klein und Klimaanlage nur je eine pro Etage. Nur mit offenen Schlafzimmertüren war die Hitze erträglich zum Schlafen. Meer in 15-20 Minuten mit Auto erreichbar. Wir waren 5 Personen und haben gekocht. Hat wenig Besteck und daher muss zwingend nach jedem Essen Geschirrspülmaschine angemacht werden. Grill ist super.
