    The view from the hotel to the beach is amazing. The beach is just a little climb down the cliffs and it is not crowded at all. We felt we had it right for ourselves. Perfect also for watching the sunset

    Couldn’t ask for a friendlier host than Will, and his staff were all helpful and were able to converse with me in English when my Spanish failed me. Great food, cold beer. Oh good coffee too.
