Excellent guesthouse. Caring, friendly staff. Convenient location, close to the center and equally close to both beaches. Breakfast is varied, filling and tasty. Even when we couldn’t have breakfast, they prepared an excellent lunchbox for us. The employees do everything to make your vacation great. Upon request, they organized a transfer to the island and to the airport. On the day of arrival, the manager himself took us to the beach, without this we would not have had time to swim. There were only pleasant impressions left.
