Small friendly hotel. 15 minutes walk from beach.
Visited in low season, but service was fantastic. Staff so friendly and helpful. Loved the breakfasts, the produce was home produced, and the fruit was from the garden. Loved the custard apples! Evening meals were at their restaurant down the road because it was low season, but lifts were readily offered. Restaurant very good, fresh fish featuring. Lovely bubbly house white wine. Room was clean and fresh, with a smart newly renovated bathroom. Very pleased over all.
