Reviewed 13 April 2013

The accommodations were private with a porch, access to their in-ground swimming pool and a great view of the ocean. Marlies picked... More

Lovely spot away from the hustle and bustle of the city. We enjoyed every morning a delicious breakfast with magnificent views over the surroundings. Our room was comfy, super clean and very spacious, the Lindt chocolate bonbons in the fridge a sweet welcoming attention. Marlies and Bruno did everything to offer us a pleasant and relaxing stay. Thank you guys!

“Lovely house in a great location...but”

Reviewed 8 March 2013

We arrived at this lovely house, which is in a great location, to a less than warm welcome by the owner Marlies. Although the house could not be faulted, we felt that we were intruding. We never worked out what it was, but we thought it may have been because we were English rather German. On the day we were... More

Dear Marchrisilyn, thank you for taking the time to write a review. I am really sorry to read that you felt you were intruding on my privacy. If I could turn back the time and would be able to accommodate you for another night, I would do my best to make it a happier experience. Marlies More
