At first glance, this upper-mid-range village-style hotel and self-catering residence property may seem ideal. It's simple but fashionable with convenient features for families and set in a beautiful, beachfront location surrounded by a pine forest. Unfortunately, it's also across the road from a chemical factory, has a large incinerator behind it, and the pier used to transport chemicals is located on the hotel's fine-sand beach. Yet this doesn't seem to bother the many repeat guests, who seem to overlook these downsides (the hotel assures us that pollution is within safe limits) in favor of the Corte's multiple day and night activities, sparkling pools, hefty dinner buffets, and different kids’ clubs.
