“Wonderful Holiday Experience”

Reviewed 21 May 2013

We spent 8 nights at Palm grove, 2 of them in a superior garden unit, and the rest on one of the beachfront bungalows. The garden unit was great, tidy and more room than we expected. However the beachfront bungalows are spectacular, and nothing makes you feel more on holiday than literally being able to step out on the beach.... More
