"It’s just an insanely exceptional location, and an absolutely fantastic house. Steve the owner was available throughout to answer any question or provide local support."
"Not much. The garage had some defective vehicle in it that leaked and created a bad smell next to the nicest room, but Steve the owner fixed that problem in a couple of hours. We just used the rooms on the other side of the house. And the house is so incredible that we didn’t really consider this a problem."
"The place is spacious and no stairs, which is ideal for elderly. Also, the view is stunning and hot tube is perfect for star gazing!"

"Location was great for our purposes of hiking in the area. Room 5 was spacious which beat just having a room. Loved having the communal kitchen space available to cook a simple meal."

"The breakfast was on the light side but for the price of the room it was substantial. Other breakfast options were nearby."

"It is good location and gated community, fairly clean and kitchenette with necessary things"
Vageesh Aqua Soleil Villas
"Views to die for! Loved, loved, loved this cottage which was adjoined to, but separate, from the main hosts house - an arrangement we prefer for privacy. This is a very comfortable cottage which has been nicely furnished to welcome guests. The linen and towels are luxurious. Parking is outside the door which opens to the bathroom, toilet and small but most adequate kitchenette. From here you descent 4 steps to the bedroom and lounge area and two balconies. This lovely, comfortable property would be suited for short and long term visits and the hosts Jane and Mike are warm and welcoming. This top rated property was an absolute pleasure to stay in - thank you so much."
Gavin Harbour Lights Hideaway
"One to two min walk to the beautiful beach, close to shops in case we wanted anything. Carol is an amazing host and cook! We had five star meals there . She generously gave us her recipes, her time to answer our questions and our room had everything we could want or need. Her property is so pretty and inviting! Thank you!"
"This is a beautiful property, quiet, spotless and perfect! The location is wonderful and the owners are so gracious and helpful."
