Great place and location! Clean and pet friendly. Can hear the surf from the veranda while drinking morning coffee. Can see the surf and much more if you walk 150 meters! Thanks!

Perfect spot

The cottage was exactly as described and very, very clean and cute :) The bed was very comfortable and we had everything we needed. All communications with the hosts were promptly answered. The location was great - a few minutes from trails and beaches. Would definitely go back!

I would suggest a loveseat at the foot of the bed to provide some comfortable seating for reading.

Aurora

Overall, it was an ok stay. There were a few necessities that were missing and some miscommunication on a fire pit being onsite, which affected the quality of our stay unfortunately. Lovely view, short distant to cafes was the perk.

Cute Aurora cottage

The cottage has been nicely renovated. It is cute and well-furnished. The only drawback is that there is no couch or armchair. You have to sit on the kitchen chairs or the bed. Given this situation, cushions on the kitchen chairs would be appreciated by the guests. But all in all, it is a good rental, cute, with amenities and well situated.
