We are thrilled with your review, Michelle. It's the best thing we could hope for. We look forward to serving you again.
Absolutely beautiful, spacious, clean and peaceful accommodation, within walking distance to the beach. We spent 6 nights here, we could have easily stayed another 6. Just perfect.

Hi Sally,
Thank you for your positive review! It's amazing to know that you enjoyed your stay and that is the goal. Until next time!
The kitchen and living areas were roomy and were very well equipped. The deck also roomy and overlooked the pool and lovely gardens.
The bedrooms were big and very private from each other.
Everyone enjoyed the property.

Paradise in Paradise!
Serene Place had everything and more! We travelled with extended family and there was something for everyone and we never felt like we were on top of each other. The outdoor dining and pool were both big hits! Highly recommend for anyone visiting Magnetic
