A great experience. This is a house turned to Hotel. It was a unique experience and a quite pleasant one. The location and the views are incredible. The service was very customizable and personal. And the hotel it’s self is an art gallery. I recommend.

We sure do. Expedia has teamed up with online lender Klarna to help you conveniently pay for your holiday in manageable instalments.

Make sure you bundle your flights, accommodation and activities with Expedia to get the biggest bang for your holiday buck. Consider these flexible payment options below:

  • Pay in instalments holidays: With this Book Now, Pay Later option, Klarna makes it easy to pay off your holiday over multiple transactions.

Low prices appear from time to time just weeks before departure dates.
