This property was a delight to stay at. It has a clean coastal style and the host has created a welcoming vibe with hammocks, coffee machine and cosy furnishings. The view was stunning, especially at night with all the lights around the coast. The properties garden was exceptional, my favourite plant being the fully fruited avocado tree. It is a gardeners paradise. We will definitely stay here again on our next stay on the Penisula. ##### Leanne C.
