My fiancé and I stayed here the night before and night of our wedding. I cannot say enough amazing things about this location or the people who work here. We left feeling like family. We all shed a tear at checkout. I’ve never experienced the level of genuine kindness and hospitality that we did here anywhere in the world. Our wedding would not have been the same without them. From the food to the amazing view, this place is truly magic.

Wir würden nur allzugerne diese Unterkunft bewerten, nur leider war das Hotel für diese Saison noch nicht geöffnet. Unsere bestätigte Buchung half uns da auch nicht viel! Gottseidank war der Senior des Hauses in einem Nebengebäude da,dem es natürlich äußerst peinlich war. Er bot uns von seinem Mittagessen an und vermittelte uns ein anderes Hotel, welches schon geöffnet hatte! Leider so gar nicht im Stil von Aravanes, aber wenigstens ein Dach über dem Kopf !
