"Great property in the quieter end of town. Excellent facilities. Opposite the beach. Parking to hand. Highly recommended. Note the check in details from Expedia are not quite correct. check-in is 2-6pm and reception reopens at 2. Expedia says reception is only open until 10am. The email I received the night before from the property regarding check in went to junk mail. "
