Good location, easy walk to Xaghra with its many bars and restaurants also a fully stocked mini supermarket. Communication with host was great and check in was easy. Only down side was the patio area lost sun quite early and the pool was pretty chilly as a result. I’m sure this would be better in the height of summer.
