De verbouwing naast het guesthouse maar dat is van tijdelijke aard en we waren gewaarschuwd door de eigenaar en kregen een upgrade.

I had two very peaceful nights and walked for hours along the beautiful coastline. Everything I needed was just a short walk away and I can honestly say that the lobster breakfast was such a treat. Thanks again guys and I hope that I can get back again very soon.

Reviewed Nov 25, 2025Breakfast was fantastic, every morning the hot breakfast was different and enjoyed the fact that there was no choice. There was also the Usual Fruit, Cheese & Cereal. Location was spectacular.
Not much of an atmosphere, very quiet and almost felt bad to talk aloud. Some people may like that sort of thing. I think a balance would be better.

Une personne exceptionnellement bienveillante .
Tout était très bien , deux petits détails , la moquette au sol et le sable aux pieds ne sont pas très conciliable. Les robinets de la baignoire sont difficilement accessibles .

Hostess not friendly at all. Breakfast was talked up but nothing impressive. But to leave a container for staff tips at the reception (we saw noboddy manning it for 2 days) was over the top. This is a relatively expensive location that should pay theor staff accordingly. So leaving a tip jar seems out of place. If required I will tip the staff directly. No tourist info for the region was available. In short - the service needs to improve a lot given the cost
