10/10 Excellent
"Wish I could give more than 5 stars for the value for money for this beautiful house. We stayed for just under 2 weeks and we loved it. The location is excellent; very easy walking distance from the harbour, beaches, shops and restaurants. The house was well equipped, comfy and clean. The parking is close to the house and the hosts were brilliant at responding to messages (thank you!) Highly recommend a stay!"
