Wonderful location
We enjoyed staying here 2 nights, the view is sensational and just a short walk to the beach. I have listed below the cons and improvements purely to help as I believe this place could be really special.
There is no set parking but everyone parks anywhere so it wasn't a problem. Hills are steep for small cars or people with issues climbing (knees, backs etc).
While the host was friendly and quick to reply to all messages, we did feel a little bit like a burden at times and wonder if this was more to do with a language barrier. E.g. there were no towels out for us or in the bathroom at all, and when we asked where they were we were told but then asked not to use them all as we were "just staying 2 nights". Thankfully we brought our own beach towels as there were none available and taking another 2 towels would have meant we used all 4 in the cupboard.
Our toilet roll was almost empty and I managed to find one spare roll of toilet paper high up in a hall cupboard. There was a coffee machine but no small touches like a little bit of coffee to get us started. Other people had left bits in the pantry which was helpful.
We really liked that there was a beach umbrella available and used that.
Lastly, we were reminded multiple times of the house rules, specifically to strip the linen before we go. We are the kind of people who would always do as asked, but being asked more than once was unnecessary and again made us feel like a burden. Unfortunately those who you have to remind are probably the ones who won't do it regardless, and you have to be prepaired for those when renting out a home.
To make this listing go from good to great I would recommend a few nice touches in making the guest feel welcomed as this would go a long way and to not remind the guests of the rules clearly outlined.
Thankyou for the lovely 2 days and I would definitely recommend this property.
