Morcote Magic View
Gute Tag Hier noch ein Feedback zu unseren Ferien, es war herrlich und wir werden jederzeit gerne wieder kommen. Verbesserungsvorschlag: es wäre von Vorteil wenn der blaue Ordner Bestandteil vom Vertrag ist, und z. B. auf dem Tisch läge. Wir haben ihn nicht sofort gesehen und somit konnten wir den Pool erst nach 2 Tagen reinigen, er war bei unserem Eintreffen nicht sauber. Sonst schliesse ich mich zum Feedback von meiner Schwester an. Herzliche Grüsse aus Bern

Es ist ein sehr schönes Haus an einer fantastischen Lage! Die Aussicht ist wirklich ein magic view. Wir waren Ende Dezember für 4 Tage dort und es ist sehr zu empfehlen, sich telefonisch zu vergewissern, dass die Heizung wirklich eingeschaltet und Holz für den Kamin vorhanden ist... Ansonsten war alles tiptop!

Erholsame Woche in Morcote
Haus war wie gemäss Inserat. Sauberkeit okay. Im kleinen Badezimmer roch es immer etwas eigenartig (Duschenabfluss?) war aber nicht schlimm. Trotz Hitze war es im Haus immer angenehm kühl. Die Lage ist fantastisch! Sehr ruhig. Der Pool war unseren Kindern etwas zu klein, deshalb sind wir viel an den öffentlichen Strand in Morcote gefahren. Würde dieses Ferienhaus wieder buchen!

Good morning, thanks. The vacation was fantastic. Friendly and excellent team. I hope your website supports Arabic or people who speak Arabic. Many friends want to deal with you. You have sent your site to more than one friend. I'm interested in dealing with you on my next vacation.
