This place is paradise. Easy to manage for elderly parents too (apart from beach gate) but all round, wonderful stay.

We had a lovely stay. A beautiful ‘gem’ by the beach. The ocean view……amazing, beautiful (got lucky one morning and spotted some dolphins)! We enjoyed the bonfire so much. It was a cherry on top when Richard welcomed us back with a nice, warm bonfire after running the comrades! Will definitely visit again, with the kids next time (to enjoy the pool and the games more). Restaurants, grocery store walkable distance!
