The room was spacious, well equipped and clean, but the location and views couldn't be beat !! Being able to simply step outside and walk the beach, or enjoy a glass of wine overlooking the bay was just what we needed. Only wish we had planned to stay longer !

An absolute oasis, I only wish that I could have stayed longer! Clean, peaceful, a great location, and so many thoughtful details, eg a foot bath outside each unit to clean sand off feet, paper towels in the kitchen (I am always needing these!), and a veritable library of books in one of the cupboards in my unit. Not just a random book that the previous guest had left behind, but several books covering multiple interests and genres ~ I could have happily stayed here for a month! I will definitely be back.

The property is complete value for money. These are 6 appartments all with one queen and 2 single beds. Perfect for small families. Its right at the beach and the backyard is very well maintained with a trampoline and a spa tub & a barbecue area. We stayed 2 nights and have no complaints at all. The morning views were priceless.
