"Our entire experience was fantastic. Our duplex house had everything we needed during our stay: full-size kitchen with everything included: pots, pans, dishes, utensils and dishwasher. Separate toilet and shower room with two showers, sauna and washing machine (even had washing detergent). Patio with grill, large living room and comfortable beds for up to 8 persons! Two bicycles topped it all for easy moving around the entire area. Really good room right next to the supermarket, close enough to the beaches, spa and restaurants. We loved berry picking and the local little lakes and ponds for swimming. All in all, a perfect vacation spot and will come back next year!!! Loved it!"
