Mark and Sharon are amazing and are very friendly. The hotel is a credit to their hard work and passion as it is immaculate and spotlessly clean. Nothing is too much trouble and the breakfast is first class - the Melba breakfast was unbelievable. Location wise - everything is on hand within a gentle 10 minute stroll - a perfect hotel with perfect hosts.

Highly recommended!
The hosts were wonderful, so very accommodating. Nice, if a little on the small side. Very good location, a short walk to the beach and harbor.
