Location is great. The place has plenty of room and is very cozy. The one improvement is it needs a bit of decluttering and maybe a deep clean. Lots of board games, toys, CDs DVDs, that are scratched on organized or missing parts. But overall, a very well appointed and great location.

Great family holiday

We had a fabulous stay. Lovely location- so nice to sit in the lounge and watch the waves. And so good to have the option of flat water (where we paddle boarded) and waves (where we body boarded)! Beautiful beach without the crowds of Ohope and other similar beaches.
