We have married and can only recommend to everyone! All requests were put into practice, no stress and everything was just as we had hoped and dreamt of had. Music, flower arrangements, site and so on everything as we would have liked. The food was very good, only the selection (for not fish/ Meerestierliebhaber) not really so large. wedding perfect! Service perfect! Little Los, which we wanted also, large location, therefore nothing überloffen. Many French-but there is even worse. Extra charges relatively high (drink). Would recommend a car hire and island on your own explore-super! Beware Left traffic! Is however okay, … read more

We are by chance in this hotel and have to say, it was absolutely perfect. Admittedly, it is quite remote and without a taxi is more stranded, but the hotel has everything to offer, which one for a fantastic-relaxing vacation needs. The beach was just terrific nice. We are former stretching down and two people meet. Even the beach toilets are so nice, with Muschelwaschbecken and toilets, if not great. The rooms themselves are very puristic and modern equipped, everything is down to the smallest detail styled by Kenzo (the shower kit of Hermes), but we personally was missing a … read more
