"Petit Motel très propre avec frigo et micro onde. Machine à glace très utile et piscine très propre. Par contre les commentaires disaient facile d’accès à la place 10-15 minutes de marche. C’est plus 20 minutes ce qui était correct pour nous mais il faut penser que cette marche est au gros soleil et il faisait 38 degrés. Pour ceux qui ont des enfants ce n’est pas l’idéal. Nous avons fait 4 aller retour par jour pour aller et revenir de la plage et ensuite le soir pour aller souper. C’est à envisager."
