Kerry says: "The photos on the website dont do this cortjo justice. Its a lot more spacious and extremely well equipped - we lacked for nothing. We had a lovely, relaxing holiday - lots of swimming in the gorgeous pool, lots of BBQ-ing. If you're looking for a place to get away from it all, totally unwind and chill out - this is the place to go. We'll definitely go back one day."
