The host was warm and welcoming. The batch was a great location just 30 seconds from the water and bang in the middle of the heads and the village. Had everything we needed and host was more than available if we needed her.Thanks a mill!

Wonderful place to stay

We thoroughly enjoyed staying in Annette's bach. The bach had all of the amenities that we required and the sun deck was gorgeous. It was located in tranquil street and was one of may beautiful properties in the road.It was only stone's throw away from a secluded and peaceful sandy inlet with water and sand dune views. We wish we could have stayed longer.We will be back!
