An oasis in the straight.
Pros:

Nice setting compared to other options in town; view of turquoise water and moored boas was nice. It's a remote setting; we were provided with a generous continental breakfast for the cook's day off. Appreciated being collected from the airport and the offer to be taken to the ferry although we walked the short distance. garden and swimming pool was welcoming.

Cons:

Sandfly welcome was not appreciated, beware of the little mongrels by the water edge. Food and drinks ($10.20 stubby) were ok but expensive though we should have expected that in a remote location.
