The reviews about this special place are accurate. With a large family group coming and going from the beach, it was easy. When you book this place you are gaining an experience, and unique memories. The hosts set the benchmark for being hospitable and accomodating. We all began talking about when we were planning to come back before we even left.

Great place to get away!
We had a wonderful time at the property. Enjoyed our time together as a family immensely. Slippery tiles and wood when wet were a bit challenging for seniors, but nothing you couldn’t work around once you got the lay if the land.

Best place on earth
Total private beach, garden and bush are a piece of art and to top it all the spa and the beautiful house make you feel like you are on another planet. The owners are adorable and in sync with the nature lifestyle, you will never want to go back to civilisation ever. We returned for the 5th time and can’t wait to go back.
