Very comfortable house for our family (grand parents, adult children and grandchildren).
Easy walk to quiet beach. Very secure with lots of outdoor space. Loved the bamboo forest! Very comfy beds. Nicely furnished and decorated.
Hope we can stay again.
We unfortunately brought the wrong nespresso pods- luckily there were a good number supplied! 😊
