"The location of the property was great. Just a short and direct walk down to the beach. Proximity to restaurants, cafes and other places to eat was very convenient. The staff and food were excellent, they always went above and beyond to help with ideas of what to do. As a solo traveller this was very helpful. I can say enough about the breakfast and snacks provided each day, another thing that just made the day more easy. The house is older with character, creaks and you can hear guests moving...
