The 2-bedroom holiday home features a living room with a flat-screen TV with streaming services, a fully equipped kitchen with an oven and microwave, and 2 bathrooms with walk-in shower. Guests can take in the ambience of the surroundings from an outdoor dining area or keep themselves warm by the fireplace on colder days. What a nice change from tiny hotel rooms. We were able to spread out. Our unit was in a quiet shady section. All amenities (except towels) are provided. Good communication from staff.
