This is a great house for a group of friends. The two separate living areas means people don't all have to do the same thing/watch same tv shows, & the barbecue on the balcony was fabulous to enjoy summer weather. Veryclotrestaurants & shops
The house was better in real life, it was clean & roomy with cute penguin knick knacks placed around. The host was very responsive to questions, it was in a fabulous walking distance to town and to top it off was pet friendly. We absolutely loved our time there. Thank you!
A great location to walk to the beach and shops. Perfect house for the family with. 2 living spaces and decorated beautifully with pictures and penguins.
