“We spent a weekend here. The couple hosting us were lovely and friendly. The location was great, just a few steps from the beach, surrounded by lush greenery. Comfortable rooms with everything we needed. The breakfast was excellent, served on our private veranda with a view of the garden — delicious and nicely presented. Wi-Fi was fast and stable, good enough for streaming.”
