It is common in the region for some linen to be provided for bookings, and some linen to be available as an optional extra.

What is included are doonas (quilts) with covers, pillows without covers, tea towels, hand towels and bathmats. If you would like the optional linen included in your booking, please let us know, including which beds you would like it provided for.

Peaceful and relaxing getaway.

Recently renovated and newly furnished since our last visit. Well laid out and comfortable. Very neat, tidy and clean. Beach, shops, restaurants, pubs and cafes are within walking distance. We enjoyed sitting back and relaxing on the balcony and the outdoor area, with a glass of wine and beer, cooking on the BBQ watching the Island's wildlife and golfers on the fairway of Hole 6. Definitely will book again.

Fürchterlich dreckig

Wir haben noch nie in so einem dreckigen Appartement gehaust. Lage und Ausstattung ist ja grundsätzlich ok, aber wenn man knapp 400 Dollar pro Nacht bezahlt, hat man Anspruch auf eine saubere Unterkunft. Natürlich haben wir sofort Kontakt zu der Agentur aufgenommen, aber bis auf eine beschwichtigende Mail kam nichts. Als ich Caleb anrief, hieß es nur, er würde zurückrufen. Passiert ist nichts. Ich will auf jeden Fall einen Teil des Geldes zurück!!! Eklig!!!!
