"Elegant and realxed start to our holiday"
I also thought it really sensible that the soaps and lotions came in big bottles rather than many hotels which give little amounts in small plastic bottles which clutter up washbags and are not environmentally sound at all. Having a his and her basin was a lovely luxury and a jar of cookies with the tea and coffee a nice touch!
Thanks for a really enjoyable start to our adventure in Namibia." See all these reviews: 14n in Namibia
