Response from the manager Dear Delmar, Thank you very much for taking the time to write your review and we are so pleased you all had a super time in Magic Gandria. It is always great when there is sunny warm weather, but yes if it does get too hot, we are happy to provide our guests with electric fans upon request. When you stay in a mountain/lake region, there are of course mosquitos and insects, but this cannot be helped and not a fault of the property or us. I would just recommend to have insect repellent. We hope you have taken home some very happy memories of the area and we hope you will return in the future! :)
