It is a lovely and comfy compact studio. I couldn't find towels for the pool as I was keen for a swim. Apart from that, I would stay again as location suited us. Daphna was easy to communicate with. Thank you.

Weekend stay

I had a lovely stay, the area around the house is beautiful, with all the citrus trees, and the pool in the back ground. The apartment where I stayed was bigger than I anticipated. The owner was absolutely wonderful. Close to the center of town and easy to get to. I would highly recommend , and will go back here for another stay in future.
