What some previous guests have had to say… Ernes November 2024 - 5 stars Nestled in a quiet yet accessible area, the property effortlessly blends luxury with practicality, making it the perfect choice for families or groups seeking both relaxation and adventure. We were welcomed to a heated pool, prepped to a perfect 35 degrees, creating a haven for the kids and adults alike, no matter the weather. The warmth of the pool alone set the stage for an unforgettable stay. The home itself is a masterpiece of modern design—ultra-clean, spacious, and thoughtfully designed to offer both communal and private spaces. The wrap-around balconies on the second floor add a unique touch of privacy and panoramic views. The amenities were top-notch, allowing us to fully embrace the outdoor experience while enjoying all the comforts of an impeccably equipped home. In the evenings, we made full use of the woodfire outdoor pizza oven and the firepit. One of the most notable aspects of our stay was the owner’s genuine hospitality. From warming the pool before our arrival to offering a generous late check-out so we could pack up at our own pace, he went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and valued. His kindness added an extra layer of warmth to an already beautiful experience. This holiday home is a true gem—an oasis of comfort, style, and thoughtful details. We left with unforgettable memories and a strong desire to return. For anyone looking for a mix of luxury, convenience, and heartfelt hospitality, this place is a must-stay. Mohammad July 2024 – 5 stars It’s a good place for a big family. Good activity of BBQ and pool. Room size is decent as well. Love to recommend others. Rebecca March 2024 – 5 stars Absolutely wonderful spot. We were away with a group of friends with lots of toddlers who had so much room to run around and explore, and the pool was incredible - worth every penny to have access to that lovely spot on a 39 degree weekend! The house itself was spotless, and had everything we needed for a really relaxing trip. Huong February 2024 – 5 stars Really enjoyed our stay here. The place was well equipped with everything that we didn’t need to bring much. Kate January 2023 – 5 stars We had the best stay at this gorgeous property. We travelled as two families with primary school aged children. The point was perfect for us, plenty of room, spotlessly clean and we loved the pool which although small was lovely and warm. We also enjoyed making a feast with the pizza oven. We would love to return.
