“Relaxed timeout stay even although we worked home from home environment”
So private and quite. loved the cats and homely feel. So close to the beach. Kidds Beach is like a sleepy intimate beach side resort which we just loved. Host John was on it but gave us enough space to have total privacy.

“Highly recommended”
Ended up staying an extra two days and the hosts were quite accomodating and helpful. Walking distance from the beach and amenities if you love morning walks like myself. Would highly recommend

“Perfect getaway to the beach to enjoy some quiet time.”
The accommodation was clean, neat and tidy. Excellent location - 3 minutes walk to the beach. The host was very friendly and as we were the only two staying that evening gave us an upgrade which was very much appreciated. The two house cats were just gorgeous and very friendly!
