You have to walk down the street for dinner, drinks or shopping. The rooms are lovely, but hall lights illuminate rooms at night. Breakfast is great!

Great house with lovely view

The room was great and felt luxurios. A bit strange that it didn't have a door to the bathroom. A little balcony with ocean view. Comfortable beds. We were there for one night and left at 5.30 for a flight, and they made us breakfast packs without needing to ask them. The location feels safe. The restaurants are an 8 minute walk along the beachside by some luxurios villas. Beach is 30 metres away from the house.
