Fantastic stay at a fabulous location
Pros:

Loved the location and the vibe. It was close to the beach and the shops. Facilities were very good.

Cons:

The outside area (balcony) was a little dirty with cobwebs. That’s the only bad point I can find.

Pros:

Likes the small touch of napkins fold in bathroom. The fire place was working as expected and weather cleared the next day morning for sea view from room.
