The ultimate scammers. We booked and paid for a family stay through Expedia, the property themselves then cancelled the booking a few hours later, they didn’t notify Expedia, claimed the money. Expedia showed us proof they had paid the property so they cannot do anything about a refund, meanwhile the property constantly lie about receiving the money. Gave up and disheartened. They probably do this scam regularly, stay away!

By the beach

Lovely little cabin, good kitchen, only 3 dining chairs at the table! Bed was hard but some people like that. Plenty of space. The sauna was not working and neither was the pool, the lady didn't know how to use the sauna and she had to shock treat the pool, this could of been done over night, one of the reasons we booked the pool and the sauna so really annoying they were both closed. Kids were looking forward to a swim. Good play ground for smaller kids next door, beach a few minutes walk away. Would stay again.
