Great location, amazing host
We only had 2 nights and were fairly busy so we didn't get to enjoy the area and the property too much. But if you're looking for a place to hide and crash, do some surfing, walks on the beach, have a great coffee from the coffee truck right across the road, watch something on Netflix from a cozy chair when it's all done, this is your spot! Btw... my pregnant partner couldn't get over the self-warming toilet seats! :-D
