We felt like home. Everything is in a very good condition and the interior is very tasteful. Our daughter loved the breakfast… especially the fresh baked carrot cake and the muffins. The teams helped us booking all our trips and gave us good tips that helped a lot. We will come back.

The location is absolutely incredible. Right on the beach. I watched the sunrise very morning and took a dip in the sea. I slept with my windows open and could hear the waves crashing from my bed. The garden is lush and well maintained (biggest staghorn fern I've ever seen), the staff is friendly and helpful and the whole area radiates a sense of calm. The flat itself is tastefully decorated and well-equipped and the host was very helpful. Tame ibises! Visit the aquarium, it's lovely.
