Luxury apartment with harbor view
EXCEPTIONAL LOCATION. Master apartment perfectly located by Sønderborg's old harbor basin - in the middle between Sønderborg Castle and Chr. X's Bridge overlooking Dybbøl Mill. If you expect perfection in every detail, please do not book this stay…😉 It's not a 4-5 star hotel, I don't have craftsmen who can solve any problem with a few hours' notice, and the cleaning can overlook small things. Just like at home🥰🤷♂️ But… I'm doing my best - you can be sure of that😊❤️☀️
