Soggiorno passato nel totale relax, Ottimo Cibo dalla colazione alla cena, molto variegato e di Qualità, per finire con i dolci Squisiti. Personale di servizio della Reception Cortese, accogliente e disponibile. Un plauso al Direttore del Ristorante e tutti gli chef, compresi i camerieri educati e disponibili. Un caro saluto a Grazia e Domi le signore delle pulizie di una bontà unica. Un caro saluto anche a Tony del resort, Mariagrazia e Caterina Autista del trenino! Cosa non mi è piaciuto? Gli ospiti... Alcuni di loro non tutti logicamente, non rispettando gli altri nella sala ristorante, non facendo la fila, che poi fila di 20 secondi a persona per scegliere la pietanza da prendere, passando avanti con no chalance. Per Finire la mia recensione Un caro Saluto a tutti voi dalla stanza 116 che ha soggiornato da voi dal 18 al 24 Agosto 2024 e spero di tornare presto a trovarvi per le prossime vacanze estive. Gianluca e famiglia.

Ruhige Anlage zum Entspannen

Die Anlage liegt am Randes eines Pinienwaldes und die Bungalow (Suites) sind grossflächig verteilt, so dass es genügend Privatsphäre gibt. Generell ist di Anlage eher rugig. Das "Nachtleben findet in benachbarten Alagen statt die mitbenutzt werden können. Das Essen findet in einem klimatsierten Raum statt. Das Buffet ist sehr abwechlungsreich. Der Pool ist mit Salzwasser gefüllt. Der Strand leider nur mit einem Shuttle-Bus erreichbar. Die Fahrt dauert 20 Minuten.

Vacanza fantastica per chi cerca relax è un villaggio completamente immerso nel verde, con camere super spaziose, cucina ottima e piscina comoda per i bambini. La spiaggia è lontana, bisogna prendere un trenino, ma devo dire di non aver mai avuto problemi! Tutto ovunque è molto spazioso e curato, anche se le camere e qualche punto della struttura non sembrano essere nuovi, meriterebbero una “rinfrescata”. I servizi offerti come ristoranti/sport/attrezzature per il mare sono ottimi.

Vacanza a cinque stelle in uno scenario da favola

Inizialmente la nostra vacanza avrebbe dovuto svolgersi presso alborea...poco prima di partire siamo stati contattati dal kalidria che ci ha proposto uno spostamento presso la loro struttura omaggiandoci di un percorso spa ed assicurandoci di ottenere gli stessi servizi e vantaggi prenotati precedentemente. La nostra esperienza è stata super positiva. Struttura di lusso, spazi ben curati, camera spaziosa, ben arredata, ricca di ogni comfort. Sono stati sei giorni all’insegna del relax e del benessere. Fantastico il percorso spa. Ho trovato molto vantaggioso il servizio di accompagnamento alla spiaggia e di gran gusto il cibo è il servizio presso i ristoranti. La spiaggia pulita e ben attrezzata, mare stupendo. Piacevole scoperta è stato l’incontro col grande Vasco Rossi...non è una cosa da tutti i giorni. Meravigliose le piscine e le vasche idromassaggio da poter utilizzare in qualsiasi momento della giornata. Vacanza a cinque stelle in uno scenario da favola. Consigliatissimo per le coppie e per le famiglie grazie anche alla possibilità di poter assistere agli spettacoli presso i villaggi attigui facenti parte della riserva naturale nella quale la struttura è immersa. Prezzi vantaggiosi grazie all’ottimo servizio di Hotels.com
