Getting a bit tired but nice and clean and a great view! No one there on arrival but a kinda confusing map showed us the way to our room around some boardwalks and stairs that were frankly a bit rickety in places. What seemed like it could be a really great place to stay unfortunately feels like it needs a fresh injection of energy and funds to make it realize it's potential

Looks like a family-run property. Chalets were nicely appointed bearing in mind they are a little older. Beautifully clean & furnished. Our unit had a brand new aircon, so the owners obviously care about their property. Very nice, wish we could have stayed longer. Thank you 😊
