Beautiful home

We have stayed in many beautiful properties, from beachfront to 3 stories and this home is absolutely stunning. Very big and spacious for families with quality fittings. We enjoyed the pool, theatre room and the ping pong table. A beautiful home to enjoy with your family.

Instagram paradise

The interior decoration of the house is any influencers dream! Many days we just stayed at the house taking pictures of ourselves in the house and around the pool. The listing pictures do not do it justice. Location and layout was perfect for us group of gals. Only thing to note is the rooms with 2 single beds are actually 1 single bed with a trundle underneath. Worked out fine for our group because we didn’t have a totally full house. Quick walk to the beach and cute cafes for breakfast, a dip in the beautiful pool in the afternoon, a great kitchen for family dinners and cuddling up in the theatre room for a movie night. Vacation bliss!! Amazing value with ping pong table, bikes, surf boards, pizza oven, theatre room, etc, etc, etc. Owners were amazing at communicating and were available for any issues. Don’t think, just book this place!
