Sooo comfy

A beautiful property in a quiet neighbourhood with easy access to water views. Everything we needed (and more) was available. If it is warm weather, a little effort is required to cool the bedrooms.

Idyllic harbour side apartment.

A very well designed and maintained property. Easy access to beaches and waterside activities. Hosts are totally professional and kind. A car is necessary.

Perfect holiday location

Easy to organise, amazing waterfront location, very comfortable beds, spacious, house was equipped with lots of little extras to make our stay very enjoyable. There wouldn't be many ways to improve on this place. Only issue could be if you had noisy people in the adjoining accommodation below.
