Smukt og magisk sted

Smukkeste sted og det sødeste personale. De har valgt mange services som gør det luksuriøst- en ide der ville gøre det endnu bedre er to slags hovedpuder. Maden var fantastisk og stedet magisk.

La Petite Lafitte hit all of the right buttons for my wife and me. It was quiet when we waned it to be and appropriately festive with a great day bay and music at dinner. The staff are what make a place special, and from the greeters to the wait staff and maintenance crew, they were all top notch friendly and always looking to make our stay perfect. We will return and share with others our perfect retreat.

Fue una experiencia increíble. Todo el personal es demasiado amable que te hacen sentir como en casa. En esprcial Baldemar y Mariana, que en todo momento estuvieron al pendiente de nosotros. La comida es riquísima y sale completamente del típico desayuno americano, los platillos son hechos al momento. Las instalaciones muy limpias y cuidadas. Sin pensarlo volvería y seguro que voy a recomendar este lugar. Me encantó!
