Guest Reviews

- Enzo (10/5): - Everything
- Raymond (10/5): THE Best - Everything was the very best quality and had everything we needed as well as a very pleasant view overlooking the town and out to the lighthouse. Nice to be able to park the car right next to the front door and great to see the huge array of solar panels which means out visiting footprint was less The owner was very kind and very responsive. We will try and stay here next time we are in the area … which is very pretty and worthy of future visits warranting longer time. Nothing it was a 100% fit for us.

- Cristian (9/5): Bien - Appartement dans une nouvelle maison, bien décoré, très propre, vue dégagée sur la campagne. Plein de petites attentions des propriétaires (céréales, beurre, confiture etc). Il manque un lave linge pour que l’équipement soit parfait.
La situation géographique n’est pas très favorable, loin du centre ville, impossible si pas de voiture
- Phillip (9/5): -
- Jeffery (10/5): Beautiful suite with a great view! - This was a beautiful, comfortable, super-clean place on a hill outside town, with a great view and plenty of room.

We very highly recommend this place! can't think of anything-it was perfect!

- Tanya (10/5): What a great find - We weren't expecting an Air BnB, so were a little disappointed when we drove to the spot. This quickly changed when the host met us and we realised what a superb place it was. Perfect for exploring. Quiet and I lay in bed and watched the Sunrise.
The breakfast was great and plenty of it. The only possible suggestion I could make would be an Esspresso machine would be good.

- Ian (10/5): Exceptional - Air bnb nailed .. everything well done and bfast very generous
- Hei (10/5): I enjoyed it very much! Thanks! - The suite is situated in a new residential area, 5 min drive from the city centre. The flat is quite big for two person stay and the bed is extremely comfy. The host has also provided breakfast and basic utilities for our stay. I would definitely come again. Not much dislike. The location is considered acceptable. But the restaurants nearby closes at around 6-7pm. so better get meals before the time.

- Jenn (10/5): Beautiful. Amazing. Great price as well. - My daughter stayed here for 2 nights for her Nursing placement and could not believe how nice the suite was! She felt like she was really living in the lap of luxury. I wish it was available the next two weeks for her. Her favorite chocolates in the fridge really topped it all off. Very highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️😃

Had everything we needed with the added bonus of breakfasts which was very cute and would cater to most people. Loved the coffee as well. We went exploring the catlins during the days and were so happy to return back, chuck some pasta in the microwave, chill out and watch Netflix, the TV was bigger than ours at home. The weather wasn't the greatest but that didn't damper our excitement for everything. The bed was super comfy we had the best nights sleeps which is so important for us.
