Gorgeous huge place with all of the immeneties you could ask for

This place is awesome! Huge property, tons of rooms and you don't have to bring a lot other than towels and food! The owner is very accommodating and easy to work with. A bit of a walk from the main beach but nothing too out of the way to be walked. Great prices for beginning of summer season aswell!
