"Sfeervol guesthouse met erg vriendelijk personeel."

9.0

De gunstige lokatie met vanaf ons balkon het prachtig uitzicht op de zee. De gastvrije ontvangst, waardoor je je meteen thuis voelt. Natasha en Clarise zijn erg aardig en behulpzaam. Erg goed en uitgebreid ontbijt. Het is een oude villa, die erg smaak-en sfeervol is ingericht. Prima bed. Koffie en theefaciliteiten. Gratis parkeren.

De standaard slaapkamer is qua oppervlakte prima, maar door het schuine dak kon je niet rechtop staan om bv. Koffie te zetten. De kamer leek daardoor veel kleiner. Geen gratis drinkwater..

"Perfect"

10.0

Beautiful property, lovely room, breakfast was amazing, staff were exceptional. Natasha and Clarissa were amazing and did everything they could to make our stay perfect.

The walk back from the town center was a little long but definitely doable. It could do with a few more street lights along the route but obviously this is not within the control of the property.

"不推荐,隔壁有正在新建的酒店view一样,设施更好。"

5.0

位置不错

host对待客人的态度有些让人费解。早餐8:00开始,7:40到楼下被要求只能坐客厅或泳池边等待。重点是“被要求”。

"Beautiful location and great hosts!"

8.0

La Fontaine is a very nice property, Natasha and Clarise are very kind hosts. The location of the property is great — it's very close to both the ocean and the town centre. The breakfast was possibly the best on our trip (I loved the homemade granola)! :)

Our room (family room) does urgently need some renovation. The carpet is very used (seemed dirty) and also some of the paint does not look very appealing anymore.

"Good position with helpful staff but needs updating."

6.0

The service was good but the rooms were very tired from the carpets to the electrics and bathroom. Although very clean and pleasant staff it was just outdated.
