We had a very relaxing stay here. It was perfect for a family. The children loved the toys, trampoline and the lovely cat. We enjoyed exploring the nearby beaches we had everything we needed at the local shops. The host was very friendly and helpful.
Thank you :)
Our family of 3 generations had a wonderful 2 week holiday here together. The close proximity to Stanmore Bay meant we could walk there twice a day. From free Wifi to childrens toys everything we needed was there. A big thankyou to the owners who kept in touch with us when necessary.
This residence is conveniently located within walking distance of two renowned beaches, a coffee shop, and a grocery store. The owners are highly responsive and accommodating. As this is their residence and this was a last-minute rental for them, it is possible that the hot tub is not operational. Apart from this minor inconvenience, our stay was exceptional.
