  • Seasonal pool in the garden
  • Breakfast included
  • Free parking

Chapter II · The garden

A garden of olives, pines and cypresses

After a day of temples and beaches, the garden is the place to slow down: green lawn, shady corners under the pines, sun loungers and a seasonal pool for a swim before dinner.
