Sep 7, 2017 #### NICE AND RELAXED We stayed at "Branki" in August 2017. Everything starting from our arrival, when we were treated to a Livonian national dinner, to the very last day of our stay was superb! Sweet and very friendly atmosphere created by our charming hosts, impeccable tidiness of the place, colorful and authentic interior, as well as delisious breakfasts made our stay there unforgettable! There was a beautiful pristine beach, which was reachable through a short walk through the ancient forest, and that beach offered you a privacy that one can only dream about. 2 km to the left and 2 km to the right there was nobody. The place is a true gem, that offers you a quiet, relaxed and beautiful rest. ##### Halyna S. Stayed 11 nights in Jul 2017 This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Doris D. Sep 5, 2016 #### Herrliche Unterkunft mit liebevoller Bewirtung! Diese urige und gemütliche Unterkunft ist jedem zu empfehlen, der Ruhe und Erholung in einer fantastischen Gegend sucht. Die Bewirtung ist einzigartig und die Vermieter von solch herzlicher Freundlichkeit, dass man sich sofort zuhause fühlt. Die Unterkunft ist sehr sauber und gepflegt, liebevoll und originell eingerichtet. Die unmittelbare Nähe zum Strand und den vielen Wanderwegen im Wald machen den Urlaub in diesem Naturschutzgebiet zu einer großartigen Erfahrung. Wenn man ein Auto dabei hat, sind Ausflüge nach Kap Kolka, Ventspils, Irbene (zum größten europäischen Radioteleskop) oder auch nach Riga (ca. Std. Fahrt) empfehlenswert. Wir würden dieses Domizil jedem ans Herz legen, der in seinem Urlaub Natur, Ruhe und Abgeschiedenheit zu schätzen weiß. Wir waren sehr begeistert!!! ##### Doris D.
