Peaceful location

We had a very nice stay here. The studio we stayed in was facing the water and it was nice to spend some time on the verandah watching boats go by. The room was clean, had everything we needed and the area was quiet so we managed to relax and sleep well.

Very relaxing and quiet.. most things were generously thought of, which made our stay perfect. If there was one improvement I could suggest, it would be to fix the noisy air conditioner as it kept waking us . Overall I would definitely recommend it ⚓️🛶

This was a great little place to stay, right on the water, plenty of parking space. Well suited for couples, but my daughter and I stayed in the family cabin which has a double bed and double sofa bed. Really nice little place, can wander onto the wharf and sit on the bench at the end to watch sunset. Host was very helpful and friendly.

Haven by name, haven by nature.

We loved our couple of nights and will definitely look to return. Staying in the studio was like staying on a boat but without the rocking. Very private and relaxing with very friendly and helpful hosts.

A few unique and fine detail touches that made our stay so delightful. The wind protected patio, complete with fairy lights and heater. Comfortable bed, plenty of pillows and quality linen. Tastey local bubbles in the fridge and push bikes provided to make it easier to access local area. Super friendly owner on sight. We had a great stay. Thank you so much
