Clean room, although the fly screens needed dusting, and the roof window surrounds needed cleaning. Otherwise the room was excellent, good aircon and large flat screen TV.

We loved this property - easy to find and in a great location. Sheltered parking space right outside the door of our room. A few minutes walk from the shops, restaurants and beach. The room itself was beautifully clean and had everything needed for our stay. Easy check-in and out with friendly, welcoming staff. We would recommend this property.
