This pension is run by a family. They were lovely and we felt part of the family when we left a week later. The owner cooks for you if you request it. By the way healthy meals, delicious, and well balanced. You can have breakfast as well if you let them know the day prior. I highly recommend this place situated in a quiet area where relaxation takes absolute center place

Room was very clean the included breakfast was very good fresh made eggs to order not a lot of gluten free options. Front desk was very helpful, we needed a later checkout and they took great care of us. I left something behind 2 weeks prior to this stay and they had it in lost and found. To me that is pretty amazing. Highly recommend a stay here.

We booked an ocean view overwater bungalow for our honeymoon, and the room was perfect and spotless. They decorated and added a nice touch to congratulate us, and the staff were always so helpful. Breakfast was simple but decent, best things were the omelette station and assortment of fruits.
