The view was spectacular and the house was very well equipped. Parents retreat upstairs was particularly comfortable and the garage was a bonus for ease of access. Bathrooms and laundry excellent. We will book again if owners keep a similar price which is reasonable. Extra fridge in the garage would be handy. ##### sally210 From a partner site ### 8/10 Good #### Tina 27 Jan 2019 #### Great for families! Great location, a steep walk up a hill but loved the views, so it was worth it! Also lock up garage was a bonus. Good setup for families with 2 rooms and bathroom downstairs and main bedroom and ensuite upstairs. Noted there was beach equipment (toys, chairs, etc) but was not sure we could use them so would have been good to know. Well stocked kitchen in terms of cutlery and utensils. Would book this place again. ##### Tina From a partner site ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jann 18 Sept 2018 #### Great views Great property with everything you need for a comfortable stay.
