Had a great and comfortable stay here
Pros:

Such incredibly nice hosts. Room was tidy and super good value for money. Breakfast was delicious. The hosts let me leave my baggage there for the day after checking out

Cons:

Access was a little confusing to initially find property. Owner checked when I would arrive though and can do it to greet and welcome me. A sign would be helpful

I recommend staying here if you want a family stay, We loved our stay but if you are looking for something more fancy it
Pros:

We enjoyed are stay very much at Newtons family home. The location is great and the family are wonderful. My partner lost his phone and the family were amazing in helping find it for us even taking us to the police station and spending the day walking around searching, until we eventually found it. We even did surf lessons with the son which were great.
The room is very basic, but all you need with a bed and bathroom.

Cons:

Just a heads up, you get what you pay for.

Super schöne Unterkunft mit genialer Lage. Ruhig in der Natur und nicht zu weit zu den Stränden. Frühstück war auch jeden Tag spitze und immer abwechslungsreich. Genau wie das Abendessen. Gerne wieder, viele Grüße und alles gute :)

You feel like you are with family
Pros:

You lived like you would with family, so you felt like you never had to worry about anything really, laundry, food, cleaning and also just getting to experience day to day living at a family’s home

We also danced together, played cards together, watched TV and movies together, I also stayed for the Buddhist new year and got to experience how they traditionally celebrate this beautiful day

Even Tisha who is Newtons son is a surf instructor and gave me some amazing surf lessons while I was here, I felt like a progressed really fast and was already surfing in the intermediate surf area by the second lesson

Cons:

For me personally there is nothing that I did not like, I just had some requirements for a longer term stay, since I work remotely

So I was looking for somewhere with more stable internet, a kitchen for my own cooking and just where I have a more self service options as well just because of budget reasons

All the services they do have though are fantastic and generally very affordable, so if I was not staying for months and not working I would have definitely loved just being pampered the way I was here
