Very polite and helpful staff. Beautiful property. Wish the pillows were firmer and that the shower did not splash out a lot into the bathroom but this would not deter me from staying again.

Greay stay. Room has everything you need. Perfect location. Staff very friendly. We enjoyed sitting outside on the terrace with a drink, watching the world go by. Only niggle -would have preferred digital tv as opposed to Apple tv which was cumbersome.
