Insel Fehmarn Hotel

Apia


Blocky and nondescript from the outside, this large hotel is surprisingly welcoming and well equipped. All rooms have plenty of space (families should request a Garden Room on the ground floor) and excellent kitchens; ours had a full gas stove. Genuinely friendly staff are quick to respond to requests. There's a large pool area and a fantastic restaurant-bar; don't miss the Friday night barbecues.
