Awesome place to stay in Port Franks. Ideal for two families. Two bedrooms are on one side, two are on the other side, each with a bathroom, so lends itself nicely to two families. There's a second upstairs living area with kitchenette that's really big. We didn't use it much but I think if our kids were older we would have. Great for games nights. It was a heat wave while we were there and each area had AC that was quick to cool down. Lovely hosts that share the other half of the house. Easy access to the beach (a five min walk away. There's not much parking there so better to bring a wagon and walk). The beach is perfect for little ones, a long walk to wade in.
