Great, comfortable, quiet place to stay. Hosts have thought of all the little things for a pleasant stay. Games, streaming services, fruit, breakfast supplies, well equipped kitchen. The beds were really comfortable. Hosts were very prompt with communication. Easy place to stay and 5 minute walk to the beach. Highly recommend.
