The rooms were super cozy, well equipped kitchen, nice outdoor terrace. The host family is absolutely incredible, sweet and even bringing freshly baked goods every morning. We planned to stay for one week and extended for two weeks because we felt so much at home. Super good location, quick drive to the beach everyday. Perfect spot for a relaxing vacation in a quiet town close to the beach!
