​This stay was exceptional! The panoramic sea view is absolutely stunning and was easily the highlight of our trip. ​Unlike many self-catering rentals, this home was perfectly equipped with every household item we could possibly need. The kitchen was fully stocked, and all the small essentials were already provided, making our stay incredibly easy and comfortable. ​If you want a stress-free getaway with a breathtaking backdrop, this is the place to book!

We stayed there for three weeks in a terraced house, partly because of our son, and felt very comfortable. The rooms are well-equipped. We only missed having a washing machine, but the maid offered to do our laundry. The daily cleaning service was excellent – ​​the kind you wish you had at home. From the living room, the back bedroom, and the terrace, you could enjoy the ocean in all its glory. A feast for the eyes and a soothing sound for the ears. However, it's not for noise-sensitive sleepers, as the surf is quite audible even at night. It's more tolerable in the front bedroom, though. The beds are all very comfortable, and two spacious showers and a large bathtub round out the amenities nicely. The kitchen also has all the appliances you need (kettle, toaster, coffee maker, dishwasher, and even a microwave). Parking is in a carport, so nicely covered, right next to the front door. The beach is about a 10-minute walk away. The Wi-Fi is okay, but not sufficient for streaming (5 Mbps wireless). Points deducted only because of ants, the surf potentially disturbing at night due to lack of soundproofing, and the absence of air conditioning. The dishwasher was replaced within two days after we complained. Kudos to the owners! We'd gladly come back for a few nights to enjoy the incredible view.
