Aug 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy La maison gérée par Joe est parfaite pour vivre un séjour en famille. Bien équipée avec deux terrasses donnant sur la mer, la maison est également située dans une zone moins touristique et très appréciée avec supermarchés et restaurants à proximité directe. La petite plage en face de la maison est idéale même avec des enfants en bas âge. Nous y avons passé du temps à chasser les poissons! Joe est également très disponible et a su nous conseiller sur les sites à privilégier. Nous recommandons cette maison à 100% ##### Sandra L.
