“A home you will love, exceeding all expectations”
We loved everything! So much care is taken by the owner to make every little detail special and welcoming. It feels like a home, not a holiday rental. Suna, the owner, takes a sincere interest in her guests and goes out of her way to ensure everything you need, and more, is there. We enjoyed every minute, and of course, the view is beautiful, whether it is sunny or rainy! Most grateful for this stay.

“Unbeatable location with breathtaking views”
Unbeatable location with breathtaking views from the exceptionally comfortable living room. Thoughtful hosting with delightful touches that make the stay feel special. All bedrooms are en-suite. Just a short walk to shops, excellent restaurants, and the stunning coastal walkway. Highly recommended.

“Abundance of care and perfections will meet you here”
Of all of the many places that we have booked with Booking.com over the past 15 years, this host, Suna, and the accommodation itself were both most definitely the best in all respects. It exceeded all expectations of a weekend by the sea and a lovely, caring host. This beautiful sea-facing apartment had everything and much more. We were met with kindness, generosity, the touch of love from someone who wants her guests to have a wonderful experience. The whole place touched our hearts. I can make a very long list of everything, but there is not enough space here - perfect homeliness, cleanliness, abundance of extras, and the secret ingredient of genuine love. If my children had to choose a place out of all our previous accommodations, they agreed without hesitation that they would choose this home. We can only thank Suna for a very special Easter weekend.
