We loved everything about our stay! The property was in a great location with beach access, was very clean and well equipped with everything you could need.It was so nice to wake up in the morning and see the spectacular view of the ocean.My two kids (8 and 11) were very comfortable on the bunk beds in the main living area, and the main bedroom is huge. Ron was a great host and made the check-in process super easy. We would love to stay again when we go back to area.

Such a lovely spot, and very comfortable accommodation. The view is amazing, and there is nothing more relaxing than sitting out watching the whales and the birds. The place has everything you need and as well as being close to the beach is also a short walk from the shops. A wonderful place to stay all round!
