The property was just as described in the listing and the manager was quick to communicate as needed. Some of the furniture is showing signs of wear but that really didn’t detract from our brief stay. We were very comfortable. ##### Serina H. Stayed 1 night in Mar 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Amber 14 Feb 2024 Liked: Property conditions & facilities Disliked: Communication The location for the property was great. The bathrooms were super inconvenient as there was no real shower stall and the bathroom floor was always wet. The bathroom didn’t have any counter space so u couldn’t really put your toiletries anywhere. There was no USP outlet so make sure to bring your own power converter. We were let down. Y the communication. I had booked 3 bedroom and Expedia confirmed 3 bedroom chalet but then we were given a one bedroom chalet. ##### Amber Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Rainforest Retreat](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Franz-Josef-Glacier-Hotels-Rainforest-Retreat.h7088168.Hotel-Information) > > [Rosewood Matakauri](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Queenstown-Hotels-Matakauri-Lodge.h1097561.Hotel-Information) > > [Richmond Holiday Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Richmond-Hotels-Richmond-Holiday-Park.h29218591.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Procida](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Procida-Hotels.d602121.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Beachcombers Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newquay-Hotels-Beachcombers-Apartments.h3631252.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis Rotorua](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rotorua-Hotels-Ibis-Rotorua.h1131218.Hotel-Information) > > [Iberostar Selection Hacienda Dominicus - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Punta-Cana-Hotels-Iberostar-Selection-Hacienda-Dominicus-All-Inclusive.h881180.Hotel-Information) > > [Anglers paradise and great family holiday place](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Makarora-Hotels-Anglers-Paradise-And-Great-Family-Holiday-Place.h37278832.Hotel-Information) > > [Adults Only Resorts & Hotels in Magaluf](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Magaluf-Calvia-Hotels-Adults-Only-Resorts.0-n182343-0-tAdultsOnlyResorts.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Gavimar La Mirada Club Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Santanyi-Hotels-Gavimar-La-Mirada-Hotel-And-Apartments.h4349746.Hotel-Information) > > [Playaolid Suites & Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Adeje-Hotels-Playaolid-Suites-Apartments-All-Inclusive.h36020605.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Middelburg](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Middelburg-Hotels.d5328.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Tongariro Suites at The Rocks](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Horopito-Hotels-Tongariro-Suites-At-The-Rocks.h9679404.Hotel-Information) > > [Park Plaza Budapest](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Budapest-Hotels-Artotel-Budapest.h699744.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Royal Crescent](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Royal-Crescent-Hotels.0-l6079377-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Entebbe (EBB) to Kigali (KGL)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/ebb/kgl/entebbe-to-kigali) > > [Flights from San Francisco (SFO) to Birmingham (BHX)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/sfo/bhx/san-francisco-to-birmingham) > > [Flights from London (LCY) to Manises (VLC)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lcy/vlc/london-to-valencia) > > [FlySafair](https://www.expedia.co.uk/FlySafair-Flights.cFA.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Flights from Bristol (BRS) to Ballasalla (IOM)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/brs/iom/bristol-to-isle-of-man) ### Activities > [Things to do in Portsmouth](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Portsmouth.d553248634335196573.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Velez-Malaga](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Velez-Malaga.d6085152.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Mati](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Mati.d601918.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Dubai Parks and Resorts Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dubai-Parks-And-Resorts.d553248622847106103.Holidays-City-Breaks) > > [Banff Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Banff.d10550.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### Holiday Rentals > [Ayr Holiday Rentals](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ayr-Holiday-Rentals.d5583.Travel-Guide-HolidayRentals)
