    We loved our stay at this lovely guest house. Only minutes from the beach and many restaurants and bars by the beach. The family who owned it is lovely and the breakfast of fresh fruits, local yoghurt with honey and eggs was a highlight for us.

    It was great being able to walk to Turtle Bay & Marissa Beach. There were restaurants on the beach. We were able to rent a mask to snorkel & see the turtles.
