GermanyThe resort was beautiful, clean and extremely family friendly. What did surprise us though was how awesome the host team was. Every single person we met made us feel welcome and appeard to be genuinely happy to see us. We've travelled to many countries before and we've never felt this quality of hospitality. Thank you, everyone. Also remarkable to state that after the initial payment for the package, we hardly spent anything. It really was all inclusive.
