Guest comments
The week we stayed with you was very pleasant. The tips you gave were
so helpful. The service (like renting the scooter etc.) was great!
The accommodation very tidy and clean and the atmosphere of the late
afternoon, having a glass of wine on the patio ( thank you!) under the grape was so wonderful. It was the best start of our holiday in Hvar and the
reason we decided to stay for another week. We hope to visit you someday again in Hvar or in Portugal. Greetings from your friends in Holland,
A&P
Thanks for everything. We hope you have a lovely and successful summer. The cottage was perfect! And the local wine and produce unbeatable!
Your suggestions, help with scooter rental & warm hospitality were well appreciated. We will come and see you again one day I am sure.
