Abraham Israel

The best b&b we ever had. Beutiful, huge rooms, all looks very nice, a lovely and caring host, excellent breakfast. A must place to stay in

Almog Israel

In one word - AMAZING. Great location, amazing service, special thanks to Luisa (owner of the place). Welcome greeting with wine and plate of fruits and cheese. Willingness to support any time, listen and understand our requests Very good breakfast, very clean place. Highly recommended

Alex Israel

Beautiful and comfortable place, with wonderful views. Great value for money. We could not have been made more welcome by the friendly and attentive hostess. We were greeted with white wine, cheese and biscuits on the terrace, plus port in the evening. The breakfast was superb, with plentiful fresh fruit, cheese, meats, yogurt, bread and cake (and the offer of scrambed eggs). It felt like everything was being done to make our stay special...which it was. Highly recommended. We will definitely stay there again.

Andrew Portugal

Tastefully furnished rooms, large, spacious and comfertable. There is a pool on site which we did not use due to the weather. A warm welcome from the hostess with wine and cheese. A ventilated room with several windows and a balcony with a view into the distance
