Property information

The Gay Urban Resort Concept is mainly targeting the gay male public, However (and obviously!) we don´t discriminate any gender or sexual orientation But we inform everyone about our main target in order that everyone knows and understands the Gay Urban Resort Concept and makes the decision about maintaining or cancelling reservation In fact, our aim is that every guest that stays at The Late Birds, man or woman, feels confortable and enjoys!
