We loved staying in this bungalow! It was wonderfully pet-friendly, which was so important to us since we brought our dog. The location couldn’t have been better, directly across from a beach access, making it incredibly convenient. The host was kind and attentive, even checking in with us on the day of arrival. One especially thoughtful touch was finding dog bowls set out with fresh water when we arrived. It made us feel truly welcomed. We would happily stay here again!
