Chalet extrêmement propre ayapatgaig
Nous sommes un famille de deux adultes et deux enfants. Nous avons adoré le chalet. Il était extrêmement propre. Je loue régulièrement des chalets et ce dernier était le plus propre que nous avons loué. Il y avait tout le nécessaire pour la cuisine et même plus (en très bon état également). Il y avait des jouets pour les enfants et du matériel pour la plage (parasol, chaises).
