Great location, spacious rooms and very well-arranged. The staff provided take away breakfast and coffee as our flight was very early, which was a very nice touch. We'd definitely stay again.

Great location, a short drive to the central part of town. Our room had a lake view, which you can enjoy from a covered and heated balcony, which gives it a plus if you go in winter. The room itself was really comfortable and every detail was well thought out. The spa pool was divine and the place was an oasis to relax. I'll definitely stay there again.

The location was absolutely stunning, right on the beachfront with breathtaking views of both the sunset and sunrise. The room's decor was incredibly cozy, featuring high-quality appliances. The bathroom was spacious, and the outdoor deck area with seating was perfect for relaxation. We would definitely return.

This is a beautifully kept property. Tucked away on a beachside street. New furnishings, lush carpet and huge TV with Netflix for viewing. We only stayed one night. Property owners lovely. Leather couch freshly cleaned and polished. Plenty pf supplies to dine in or out. Pizza place near by was delicious. Not water views but right on the beach. Parking tight but right in front. Nice dark and quiet room

The whole experience is just so relaxing. The views to the open ocean, the waves on the beach, the hills above nestle you in. It is cosy and warm, the linen is lovely. The shower has great pressure. The fridge has the basics and fresh bread is delivered to the door.
