10/10 Excellent

Very friendly and helpful reception staff. Great location, within walking distance of main center and port, yet far enough away to be peaceful. On-site laundry, parking, outdoor kitchen area by pool - all great. Definitely recommend to guests who enjoy genuine hospitality in a low-key environment.
