It had everything we needed and more. Clean, spacious, the view, 25min walk to the beach, close to shops. Highly recommend and definitely would like to stay again! Thank you for the kind flowers, Paul! ##### Manuella S. Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jessica F. 2 Feb 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great home, location & view The house was wonderful for our group of 4 adults, 2 children & pet dog. Plenty of space for everyone to relax. Kitchen was very well stocked & the knives were sharp so preparing food was easy. This is a rare find and very much appreciated. The steep driveway was good for fitness but could be an issue for people with mobility issues. And the view was just spectacular! Host was most helpful. Hope we can return for another visit soon. ##### Jessica F.
