"This property and its surroundings were beautiful. We genuinely had the beach to ourselves which felt very special. The host had furnished and stocked the property to make it comfortable and there was the added bonus of paddle board, snorkeling gear and games too.We had hired a 4x4 and the drive was definitely an experience, however, the cleaner and groundsman were always on site and happy to take us should we need it.We also went scuba diving with Bigfin, who picked us up by boat and we spent a memorable day discovering reefs locally.The description of serene was accurate and I will never forget the views!Bring mosquito protection."
