Unique decor, large open plan space. Beautiful waterfront views, in the centre of town for exploring. IGA and bakery very close by. A little hard to find clear signage for the property and parking. No freezer in the mini fridge.

So glad you enjoyed your stay. Our retro studio doesn't have a freezer but we allow our guests to use ours on our deck. Sorry I should have mentioned that to you. Happy new year and hope to see you againLibby

This property is in immaculate condition in a fantastic location. Couldn't fault the property or location. Loved the front balcony and sweeping ocean views. Could park the car off-street and everything such as beach, shops and dining within walking distance. Would definitely stay at the property again!
