The whole property was really modern and clean, the staff was super helpful all the time and I need to highlight the kindness of Doctor Marco at the on site Clinic center, who we actually had to visit almost every day during our stay since our 2,5years old daughter got sick. He was always ready to give assistance and check her any time and his professionalism and kindness helped us to enjoy our stay, so we were truly very grateful for his presence there.
