"The house was excellent for our short stay. It was well appointed, fully equipped and very clean. The house had a lovely feel and we spent quite a bit of time on the generous balcony, taking in the small view to the water through the houses and trees opposite. Michelle was our host and she made the booking process seamless and was very prompt with responding to any questions I posed. I would highly recommend."
