Beautiful home and comfortable! Andreas was there to greet us and show us around when we arrived. He is very kind! We were a group of friends, including two young ones. Very clean place and pristine pool. Each room has a wall unit for A/C and a fan for the shared space. Enough towels for the bathroom and towels for the pool as well. Plenty of parking, even some shaded. Outside grounds were beautiful trees and flowers. And amenities like shampoo, soap, and toilet paper to get you started. Great as a place to sleep and launch off every day to drive all over the gorgeous island.
