"We stayed in a chalet, it was a great for our needs, had everything at hand. The property is great, especially for kids. A couple of minutes drive to town, maybe a bit far to walk to dinner with small kids. Our only "issue" was the shower pressure. It had none. But that didnt ruin an otherwise fantastic holiday."
