Other things to note
Strictly no pets allowed. As much as we adore furry friends, we’re unable to accommodate them in the apartment.

The apartment is accessed by stairs, and regretfully, it’s not wheelchair friendly. We truly wish we could welcome everyone, but the layout makes step-free access impossible.

An armed alarm system is installed and can be activated during your stay, completely optional and easy to use. We’ll show you how at check-in.
A lockable safe is available in the main bedroom’s dressing room for valuables.

Thoughtful touches have been added throughout to make your stay as enjoyable as possible. Enjoy plush linens, complimentary teas and coffees, and curated books and games for those relaxing evenings indoors. Whether you choose to unwind with a sea view or explore the vibrant surroundings, we hope you find both comfort and inspiration in every detail.
• Housekeeping: For longer stays, linen and towel refreshes can be arranged upon request.
• Wi-Fi: Free unlimited Wi-Fi is available during your stay. Feel free to work, stream, or browse at your leisure.
• Local Guidebook: You’ll find our Waves & Whales Guest Information Folder in the apartment, filled with beach tips, hiking spots, favourite eateries, and hidden treasures from our beautiful community.
• Eco-Conscious Touches: We kindly ask guests to switch off lights when not needed, conserve water where possible, and use provided bins for any recyclables in the garage.
