  : The pool was really great and we used the terrace very often. You can have a breakfast with delicious cornetos and coffea. The playgarden for the kids is as well nice. The host was very friendly.
  : The bathroom is quite small and with small kids it was not so easy but doable.The apartment could be a bit cleaner, especially in the corners.

  : Residence Valdana is located in a nice vacation village that is easily accessible by car with plenty of parking space. The closest beach is in walking distance (10min) and restaurants are also close by. When staying at the location, the village has been fully booked - nevertheless it has been very silent and relaxing.
  : There are WiFI access points in all public spaces but unfortunately not in all flats. As cellphone reception is very well, this has not been a problem.

  : The staff at reception was very helpful at describing the various interesting locations on the island.
  : This was one of the worst stays I have ever experienced. All facilities are extremely outdated, the rooms arent comfortable, theres zero noise isolation, which means youll be constantly awakened if your upstairs neighbors decide to move chairs or use the bathroom. Our rooms view was the door of the shared toilet and the noisy road. There are a bunch of extra draconic rules that are messaged to you after the booking is made (not sure if thats even legally binding or fair), including fines for not washing the dishes properly or not cleaning the apartment at check out. Interestingly, you arent given any detergent or even towels - both can be purchased/rented at the reception. I find this combination of hidden rules and paid standard amenities to be utterly ridiculous. Worst of all, after the checkout I have received a message from the administration urging me to give a positive feedback anyway, regardless of how the quality of the stay was perceived. Heres what I really think: yes, pandemic makes everything tougher for the hospitality industry, but this doesnt make dated and unreasonably organized hotel any less ridiculous. I truly think it would take more than extorting money from the guests for the towels to save this property - it needs a major renovation and a complete facelift. Right now I cannot recommend this place to anyone in their mind.

  : You can rent umbrellas for free. Parking space reserved per apartment.
  : Our studio was below a bar, it was super noisy, you could hear every step, people moving chairs, children running around. Some people had parties late at night, singing, shouting, it was difficult to sleep. The area is full of mosquitos, and there were no insect nets on windows. No air conditioner, just a ventilator with 1 cm of dust on it, you can be sure to get asthma if you turn it on. It was not clean. It does not provide even basics, like dish cleaning solution or sponge, had to buy everything. Compared to other places where I stayed, this is extremely overpriced for what it is.
