Theresa Australia

that it had nice cheap rooms for those that didn’t want to tent it with their friends.

Helen Australia

Second visit - stayed in Family Villa. Wonderfully set up. car under master bedroom window, private veranda looking out at garden and view of mountains. Csn sit at table and watch children play on the lawn while relaxing. Can watch tv from porch or inside. every kitchen utensil available plus electric frypan and two burner plug in. Full fridge, bbq areas outside, good laundry facilities, close to beach and best bakery I’ve ever visited. Had a wonderful relaxing time with day trips to various waterfalls. So pleased I went back. Villa had Wueen bed, two bunks and a single. Really good value and wish I could have stayed longer
