Clear instructions on how to get to the property and check in and out. All necessities and comforts They went out of their way to make our stay comfortable even with a broken heat pump, which was repaired promptly.

It would have been nice to have 2 ensuite bathrooms, but that's not how the properties are laid out so no sweat.

Easy, comfortable and luxurious.

9.0

This property is within easy walking distance of everything, including the beach. Yet, it was surprisingly quiet and private especially at night. A great selection of cafes and restaurants very close to us.

I cannot fault for property but I must remember to book a longer stay next time I'm in the area. Two nights just wasn't enough.
