Lovely house, perfect location. Nicely decorated throughout and had everything you could need - including wetsuits, body boards, beach towels and games which was a lovely suprise! Owner was nice enough to let us know house was ready early if we wanted to come and have us a slightly later checkout on request. All the beds were really comfy and bathrooms stocked with body wash and shampoo. Kitchen well equipped and a really nice courtyard garden with large table and BBQ. Would definitely recommend and stay again, thank you!
