The property is dated. We viewed our room but asked to see another, the second room was also dated (worn out chairs, carpet bulging in a few areas, the balcony chairs need to be changed) however, it was a better room. The view was stunning, balcony was great, overlooking the sea, easily accessible to the town, a good few places to eat, at all levels, it was a 2 minutes in car or 12 min walk.

I was grateful the property was as stated, not either under or over-stated. Were happy to honour our privacy giving us a choice of whether our room was cleaned or not. We were met by a pleasant host, who took the time to show us around. The only thing I would suggest was having screens fixed on the balcony door so the glass door could be left open to enjoy the breeze without the bugs.
