The Bird House is a fabulous house to visit. The house was very clean, the facilities fantastic, the kitchen very well stocked with crockery and cutlery, the beds were comfortable and we felt at home as soon as we walked through the door. The sauna, pool and spa were lovely, it was very peaceful and there was lots of space for our 3 teenagers. I would highly recommend staying in the Bird House wellness retreat if you are considering it.
The Bird House can be highly recommended: it is spacious, clean, well equipped and all appliances are working well. The pool is nice, with its solar heating being very effective. The house has two large living areas on different levels with huge smart TVs in each one. The hosts (management company) was very efficient and easy to communicate with at all times.
