Only stayed one night, but could have stayed longer and would have been very happy. Only complaint was that the wifi was weak and kept kicking us off, necessitating logging in again and again.

I was extremely happy with this accommodation. It was easy to find, walking distance to a beach and restaurant. There was a lookout walking distance as well. Room was clean, staff was friendly and worked hard at keeping everything looking pristine. Fridge was large, lots of storage, and lots of air flow as well. I would highly recommend this place to anyone!

Sleepy town, no AC
Adorable, clean, and right by the ocean! The only downsides were no AC AND no fan (it was very warm and stuffy most of the night), and everything in the town closed by 8.
