Guest Reviews

Family with older children

It was a most hospitable reception from Rachel and we were looking forward to a relaxing stay. Unfortunately our use of the shared pool was severely impaired by a large family of German and Spanish folks (clearly related) whose two sons utterly dominated the pool area for most of the time, to the detriment of other holidaymakers, including us. Their two young boys were undisciplined and invaded the pool with huge inflatables for extended periods and were noisy and belligerent. We had to choose the rare few moments to use the pool uninterrupted. We loved Gaiole and its friendly bars and restaurants and the lovely local produce as my son and I who was with me on holiday is a talented and enthusiastic cook. That was a highpoint for us.
