My wife, sister-in-law and I stayed at this bach for three nights. We had a great time there. It’s a super place — a few minutes’ walk from Oneroa and with a degree of privacy from the road. The owner could not have been more helpful, accommodating and communicative. In a nutshell, strongly recommended! ##### Duncan A.
