The location of the property was great. Close to restaurants but far enough not to be disturbed by anyone. Just across the road from the beach so we could watch the kids from the verandah. Lovely view. Kitchen was very functional and the house had plenty of room. Extra toilet was great. I would definitely stay here again. ##### Dana D.
