Perfect place to unwind with kids. Rooms were spacious and super clean, staff was helpful and proximity to the beach is A+. As a parent travelling with kids, this is best place for everyone to enjoy. They also have BBQ for each cottage which was an added bonus. The only downside was breakfast, as restaurants near this place either were closed or open late during off season.

Host was very friendly and because of the early season and room availability she upgraded us to a nicer room, with 2 beds and a view of the ocean. Great location. Wish the restaurant was open but again too early in the year. Would stay again and recommend to friends and family.

Our stay was good for the most part. The fact that we were travelling outside the regular tourist season did mean some allowances had to be made, but we would consider staying here again on a future visit.
