Wil was very good at communicating and made our stay easy. Great ammenities and the location is fabulous- perfect for a beach holiday. It is a small space as it is the underneath of a house that has been built in and was too small for 7 people with only 1 toilet inside the shower area - it would be perfect if the top part, the original house, was part of the property. The air conditioner worked a treat as it was a hot weekend The space would be good for a family of 4\. Generous supplies were given which made it easy to eat in. ##### Bec G.
