Looking for a vacation home?

Great for families or large parties, vacation homes are privately owned accommodations, available for long or short-term rental. These homes are furnished and equipped with kitchen facilities, though breakfast might be offered as an add-on. These properties have their own independent front door, which makes them different than apartments.

    The hosts waited for us until 3 in the morning to arrive. We had to walk from the airport and it was definitely doable in 20 minutes (it’s downhill). The place was very clean and had all amenities you’d need, including a kitchen, airco and washing machine. It is also very close to the center of the village, si in 5 minutes you can reach the cafe, ocean, and shop.
