Fantastic location just across from Manuel's Milennium hotel and a short walk to the Sailing Club, which is dog friendly and has great pizzas, cocktails, live music & a great friendly vibe.The house was modern, clean, had everything you need and the most stunning view of the lake from the lounge & the outside area. The outside area is gorgeous & the recent additions of a thermal hot tub was unexpected & absolutely fabulous. There was no better way to have a cocktail from the pool and totally relax. The hosts were great & answered any questions we had promptly.We really loved being able to bring my dog along on holiday. Overall, we had a wonderful holiday absolutely loved our stay & will be back.
