Short and Relaxing
What a wonderful home to get together with family or friends. It was warm and had enough space for 5 couples. The Spa pool was a hit and having the shops just a short distance away was a bonus. I would definitely recommend this place. Definitely booking again, maybe an annual event :)

Cute with lots of room
We loved our stay here and found it to be big enough for the 15 of us travelling as a sports team. It was awesome that everyone had their own bed. There is an awesome cafe and bakery nearby. It was only 5 min from our sports arena. The spa was a great way to relax after a big game. We would definitely stay here again if we play Palmy in the future :-)
