2 Wochen im Paradies

Sind nun bereits zum zweiten Mal in Finolhu nach unserem Aufenthalt im März 2022. Hatten halb/halb eine Ocean und eine Beach Villa. Netterweise wurde uns zudem ein Upgrade angeboten, was wir sehr schätzten. Waren rundum zufrieden und können mit gutem Gewissen das Resort weiterempfehlen 😀

Rundum sehr schönes Resort mit viel Strand, aber auch Grünbereichen. Wurde vor ein paar Jahren komplett renoviert, daher alles in tollem Zustand. Wasser- wie auch Strandvillen sind sehr gelungen designt und eingerichtet. Erwähnt werden sollen auch die sympathischen Mitarbeitenden in allen Bereichen der Anlage.
