Just a walk away from the beach! and local restaurants and bars.
We had a lovely stay! So close to the beach, shops and restaurants. Lovely outdoor area that's under cover but still bright. A bit disappointed that the spa wasn't working but we appreciate the work the host put into getting it fixed at a tricky time of year. Communication with the host was excellent!Thank ...
