Friendly, helpful hosts. They were able to book us on whale trip last minute, although before we were told by the company, there is no space left. The suite was very clean, spacious, modern and beautifully decorated. The view was fantastic.

The guesthouse is situated in an amazing location right in front of the ocean and is decorated beautifully! What we loved most about our stay was the lovely staff. The ladies made us feel so welcome and were always up for a chat. They were really helpful with their suggestions and tips and always had an answer to all of our questions. We were sad we only stayed one night and will definitely be back. Thanks again for everything!!

    The view from the room was breath taking. You could even see whales in the sea. The interior design was so pleasant and local. The breakfast had so many choices. I stayed in the bedroom at the front. Although somewhat more expensive the view can be enjoyed from balcony, the bed and even from the bath. In front of the house is a walking path in both directions through the dunes. Restaurants are a view km by car.
