A very private location with all the home comforts. It has a bbq which is a great bonus. Down some steps and you are on a secluded beach which is really pretty. There are really cute Wekas around the property which come for visits. We stayed 2 nights but wished it had been longer. ##### Ian T. Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Susan C. May 2, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Communication #### Reality Beautiful environment. Wonderful views and privacy. No facility for luggage.Bed mattress protector uncomfortable for movement on sheet. Towels only provided on first day so wet and cold thereafter with no towel rail. Very difficult to alter shower temperature. Very few tea bags. Couldn’t find a chopping board. Microwave oven dangerously high for average person to unload hot dishes. Simple things that are fixable so best of luck. ##### Susan C. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### William B.
