Bene, ma..

La struttura era in ordine e pulita. Il personale gentile, tuttavia sono stato poco bene due giorni e ho chiesto se gentilmente potevano farmi la cena con un piatto di pasta in bianco, ma in risposta mi hanno detto che dovevo andare a comprarmi la pasta e arrangiarmi. Quantomeno la pasta o il riso potevano darmelaoro anziché farmi andare al market con problemi di stomaco a prenderla.. A parte questo in generale il soggiorno è andato bene

Guesthouse confortevole in ottima posizione

Abbiamo trascorso qui 5 notti. La signora aveva "dimenticato" la nostra prenotazione e non ci ha quindi sistemato nella struttura principale ma in una stanza "di riserva" nella propria abitazione. La stanza era comunque confortevole con ampio bagno e terrazza. La signora è stata molto gentile nel consigliarci gli itinerari e anche qualche buon ristorante. Per il "disguido" della prenotazione ci ha addirittura offerto una buonissima cena. L'ultimo giorno dovevamo partire presto per prendere il traghetto e ci ha anticipato la colazione. Ci tornerei!

A due passi dal mare

Con una facilissima e breve passeggiata ci si trova in spiaggia ad Anse Volbert. Stanze molto spaziose,letto enorme,possibilità di usare la cucina. Noi abbiamo approfittato di un'offerta con la mezza pensione e ci siamo trovati bene,Anne ci ha sempre cucinato il pesce,speziato ma solo quanto basta, riso e insalata tutti i giorni diversa. L'ultima sera ci ha fatto un insalata con il pesce affumicato che era spaziale ed infine un dolce o la macedonia di frutta! In generale non spiccano in simpatia però noi ci siamo trovati bene quindi mi sento di consigliarlo. Per le cene vedete voi. Visti i prezzi fuori e l'offerta dei piatti se trovate l'offerta a mezza pensione fateci un pensierino.

insufficient service, otherwise nice guesthouse

The guesthouse would have been nice, if there would not have been the impossibly bad service of the owners. First, she refused to pick us up from the airport eventhough they offered free transfer around the clock. Then she tried to give us a standard room instead of the superior room we had booked. We had to wait for 2 hours for the right room although check-in was supposed to be ready by our arrival. They offer to wash and give back the laundry within 24 hours. We handed our laundry in 3 days before our departure and got it back completely wet one hour before departure. The car rental was good but arrived half an hour late because she ordered it differently than we requested. Except from the service as mentioned above there was nothing to criticize. Our room was clean, everything worked and all we needed available.

Villa Bananier дискредитирует Hotels.com

Не удачное начало замечательного отдыха. Мы забронировали эти апартаменты заранее (почти за шесть месяцев) на сайте Hotels.com и получили подтверждение, что наш номер гарантированно забронирован и подтвержден, но когда мы приехали, хозяйка сказала, что свободных мест нет, и предложила нам временно пожить в другом месте. Мы себе отдых портить не стали выяснениями отношений и скандалами, но не очень приятно вместо спокойного отдыха переезжать с места на место каждые два дня.

Soggiorno confortevole e rilassante

Dalle altre recensioni siamo arrivati con poche aspettative. Invece ci siamo dovuti ricredere perché la struttura è veramente confortevole, a 5 minuti dalla spiaggia di Cote d'Or. Le camere sono spaziose e vengono pulite e rassettate ogni mattina. La colazione è ricca di frutta tropicale buonissima sempre varia. C'è persino un servizio di lavanderia dove una persona addetta si prende cura di lavare e stendere i panni. La cucina in comune è molto comoda se si vuole preparare qualcosa. Se dovessimo tornarci torneremmo di sicuro qui.
