Moved them into the lounge and enjoyed them for our 4 days/3 nights. Loved the privacy the property provides, being able to watch the sunset from the double bed, to see the sea as I cleaned my teeth. Nice to have the morning sun in the kitchen. Appreciated arriving to ice cubes in the freezer ready to make Mojito's. Like the deck to chillax on in the morning and watch the waves.Like the later 11am check out too. Enjoyed browsing in the new Kai Cookbook. Keen to rebook again in the future.
