Beautiful house with a very well maintained garden. Quiet and comfortable, within walking distance to the beach and shops. Attentive host. For the price it would’ve been good to have a dishwasher but otherwise the house had everything we needed for our stay.

Host was extremely welcoming, this was our second time staying at silvertop retreat. We love the house and location it’s so easy to walk to all the local restaurants and shops and also the beach. The only thing to improve the experience would be to have a few more extra amenities, paper towels, cling wrap and olive oil spray for the BBQ.
