Nice guesthouse. It has everything necessary for independent long stays and cooking. Beautiful ocean view, beach access. There is a place for a barbecue. Comfortable bed, two bathrooms with all necessities. There is a garage, but if you have a car with a rooftop tent, then a jeep will not fit in terms of height. But this is not a problem, as they allow parking in front of the garage. Very kind hostess. Great set of dishes, so you can prepare breakfast and dinner. There is not only a fridge but even a separate freezer. It is possible to comfortably accommodate a large family for a long time.
