    It felt secure and it was clean. The beds were comfortable. The area is very quiet. The car was securely parked inside the garage, and with electric fence there was nothing to worry about.

    The location is very good. It is nearby a shop. It is a safe and peaceful neighborhood. It's family friendly, my kids could play outside and not feel cooped up indoors. When we needed something the host responded immediately.

    Very clean and there is mostly everything that you may need. If you do need something that is not there a staff member will show up within a few minutes to help you or bring what you need. It was a blessing staying here.

  • Is the swimming pool shared or private please?

    The swimming pool is only available to the guests that book the four bedroom house. The two bedroom apartment does not have access to the swimming pool.
    Answered on 2 February 2024
  • Two-Bedroom Apartment - Is this Apartment private with its own wall/fence around, and is the "Garden/Terrace" also closed. We are traveling with our two dogs and need a place that is private and fully "fence".

    Our two bedroom apartment is separate from the 4 bedroom apartment The Garden/Terrace is closed off with a small gate. However please note that the two apartments are on one property.
