Vaitu Sunset is a well appointed, clean and comfortable place to stay.It is close to recommended places to eat and places to swim in the ocean, or even better in your own private pool.We had a friends wedding at Edgewater, and Vaitu is super close.Staying here gives you the best opportunity to have a real holiday and break.Karenina is a superb host - with great communication and care.Vaitu Sunset is home away from home! You will never regret staying here!
