Great amenities and location.
Great location across the road from a the beach and near shops. Pool was great when the beach was too windy, amazing AV setup and a bit luxurious. Could do with a few more items to assist meal preparations but easily overcome.

Unable to stay due to cyclone.
Wanted to add that the lovely couple who own this had no hesitation in refunding me. Where as others would not refund. Have given 5 stars as I can imagine it would’ve been that good.

Aussergewoehnliche Unterkunft
Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Obwohl wir mitten in der Nacht ankamen, war der Check in kein Problem. Meine Schwester, die hier lebt, konnte den Schlüssel schon vorher holen. Mit einer Flasche Wein hiess man uns herzlich willkommen. Die Vermieter waren sehr nett und hatten nichts dagegen, dass meine Schwester mit Mann und 4 Kindern mit im Haus waren . Selbst den Pool durften sie mit nutzen. Wir fühlten uns alle rund um wohl. Dafür danken wir ganz herzlich.
