Hotel Review

Delightful small rural hideaway run by the inimitable Frank McClintock and his Austrian wife Daniela. With just 12 rooms, guests are encouraged to eat together with magnificent views over the lake, palm trees and bougainvillea tumbling down to the water. All inclusive activities include canoeing, sailing and sauna, plus wifi for those who can't leave home behind. Great for unwinding, eating well and generally chilling out. Magnificent scenery, walks, and birds for twitchers.
