Sea Spirit guesthouse is ran by a sweet, friendly, modest couple who are very proud hosts which is great. Room was spacious and clean and bed was huge! Didn’t have big breakfast but husband did and it looked wonderful - proper, local bacon, eggs and sausages! Garden is gorgeous outside - what a lovely spot with the wild flowers and calming fish pond.

Katherine United Kingdom

The owner is very kind. Shower is very nice. The room is well functioned and cozy. Feel like staying at hone.
