Pros +

  • Good access to the beach.
  • Really lovely little guest house! Super friendly staff and a great breakfast. Its nice and quiet, with a short +/- 100m walk through the garden on a boardwalk to the beach. It was a bit cold when we visited, but the pool still looked super inviting. Its just outside the main town, which is great for avoiding the crowds just make sure youve got a car to get around.
  • Ample breakfast - hot and cold options with gorgeous outside area overlooking garden and ocean view. Offer to source gluten free products was appreciated

Cons -

  • Limited viewing on the TV.
  • I really can't fault the guest house. If I had to complain about anything it would have to be the weather which can change on a dime, but that's more down to the time of year that we visited.
  • The shared seating area was little cramped and could do with some decluttering. I cant imagine how full it must be when all 12 guests are in the house.
