Property information

Is it the location? Is it the breath-taking view? Is it the hospitable feel that you get the moment you walk through the door? Comfortable rooms with large bathroom and a lavish bed? My answer would be "yes" to all of the above. There is something else though that really makes this guesthouse so unique from the others, whether that is the warm atmosphere or the friendliness of the hosts you will need to come and decide for yourself. We offer modern rooms with all the amenities that you might need to make your stay as comfortable as possible. Your morning will be started off with a spectacular view while enjoying your freshly made breakfast. You feel like a part of this home from the moment you enter until the sad moment when you have to leave.
