10.0

The hostess was very accommodating and helpful. She gave me lots of recommendations for restaurants and things to do, she even called the kayak tour operator for me and booked a tour, and when I had an unpleasant encounter while hiking, she didn’t hesitate to report the incident to the police/city security. She was always available if I had any questions and, overall, the entire staff was extremely friendly.

"Wir hatten ein paar wunderschöne Tage im La Fontaine Guest House, es hat uns an nichts gefehlt und wir wären gerne länge"

9.0

Die Unterkunft ist wunderschön gelegen, fußläufig zum Zentrum und auch sehr schön und liebevoll eingerichtet. Der Stil ist traditionell und verleiht der Unterkunft einen besonderen nostalgischen Charme. Das sehr gute Frühstück gab es auf der Terrasse mit einem herrlichen Blick aufs Meer, sodass wir morgens mit dem bereitgestellten Fernglas die Delfinschulen beobachten konnten. Besonders hervorzuheben ist das wahnsinnig freundliche und hilfsbereite Personal. Uns wurde jeder Wunsch auf den Lippen angelesen, Last Minute noch eine Bootstour gebucht und ein Tisch zum Abendessen reserviert. Auch den Kindern hat es sehr gut gefallen, insbesondere der beheizte Pool! Wir hatten einen wunderschönen Aufenthalt und wären gerne noch länger geblieben.

Das Familienzimmer ist sehr praktisch, aber auch wirklich sehr klein. Das muss man wissen, wenn man das bucht. Wir waren zu viert mit vier Koffern und haben gerade so mit unseren Sachen reingepasst. Uns hat es aber nicht weiter gestört, es war ebenfalls total süß gestaltet!
