Great place to stay. very clean, well equipped, beautiful upper deck. Host quick to responsed and helpful. Should be more outfront about lack of parking and the long hike into residence. Also stated 20 minute walk to beach and store, where it is not at all possible to walk.

When we visited access to the marina was limited and unfortunately all the shops and restaurants were closed. Fortunately the restaurants at the hotel where we were staying at were great. As we were out for most of the days we had lunch out.
Recommend a hire car. Parking for the beach is limited.
use google Maps, it's much more reliable than the navigation of the rental car walk the 25 fontes walk and start with the 800m tunnel, it's fun and very Special
