The kitchen was very functional with basic spices and olive oil. Cookware is good quality as were dishes and silverware. The beds were comfortable and clean. Washer and dryer worked very well. This was a great place for our family of two parent and three adult children. It was clean, easy to find, quiet, and gave us a chance to rest and cook our own food in between Homer adventures. ##### Jeffrey Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rodney 14 Jul 2025 Liked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Cleanliness ##### Rodney Stayed 13 nights in Jun 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Sentido Apollo Palace and Waterslides](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Corfu-Hotels-SENTIDO-Apollo-Palace.h34079032.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hyatt Abu Dhabi Hotel And Residences Emirates Pearl](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Abu-Dhabi-Hotels-Grand-Hyatt-Abu-Dhabi-Hotel-And-Residences-Emirates-Pearl.h16078864.Hotel-Information) > > [Sunset at the Palms Resort - Adults Only - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Negril-Hotels-Sunset-At-The-Palms-Resort-Adults-Only-All-Inclusive.h1095763.Hotel-Information) > > [5 Star Hotels in Tonbridge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Tonbridge-Hotels.s50-0-d5452.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The Queen Mary](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Los-Angeles-Hotels-The-Queen-Mary.h18922.Hotel-Information) > > [Aberystwyth Park Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Aberystwyth-Hotels-Aberystwyth-Park-Lodge.h11900765.Hotel-Information) > > [Ibersol Hotel Sorra d'Or](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Malgrat-De-Mar-Hotels-Ibersol-Hotel-Sorra-DOr.h1650652.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Sardinia](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Sardinia.d6048528.Hotel-Destinations) > > [Lindos Imperial Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rhodes-Hotels-Lindos-Imperial.h2671529.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Golf Residence](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Port-El-Kantaoui-Hotels-Hotel-Golf-Residence.h16307232.Hotel-Information) > > [Clarion Inn & Suites Across From Universal Orlando Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Orlando-Hotels-Clarion-Inn-Suites-Across-From-Universal-Orlando-Resort.h18072.Hotel-Information) > > [Just Chilling Suite](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rome-Hotels-Just-Chilling-Suite.h27238625.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Smugglers Cove](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Smugglers-Cove-Hotels.0-l6067619-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels with Entertainment in Blackpool](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Blackpool-Hotels-Hotel-With-Entertainment.0-0-d619-thotelwithentertainment.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Lago Resort Menorca Suites del Lago - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ciutadella-De-Menorca-Hotels-Lago-Resort-Menorca-Suites-Del-Lago.h44290252.Hotel-Information) > > [The Pelham London - Starhotels Collezione](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-The-Pelham-London-Starhotels-Collezione.h525490.Hotel-Information) > > [Kaya Great Northern Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Kaya-Great-Northern-Hotel.h5921175.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Stratford](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stratford-London-Hotels.0-n6144705-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [BestWestern Hotels in Tenerife](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tenerife-Hotels-Best-Western.0-0-d6047194--bBestWestern.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from Porto (OPO) to London (LHR)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/opo/lhr/porto-to-london) > > [Flights from London (LHR) to Guiyang (KWE)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/kwe/london-to-guiyang) > > [Flights from Manchester (MAN) to Klagenfurt am Woerthersee (KLU)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/man/klu/manchester-to-klagenfurt) ### Cars ### Activities ### Packages > [Deià Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Deia.d182313.Holidays-City-Breaks) ### General ---
