We are centrally located right in town within walking distance to beaches, headlands, shopping and restaurants. No need to get in the car once you arrive. We DO NOT accept small children, as the space is not safe for little kids. The windows don't have screens, and the stairs are very steep. We also are not handicap accessible. The restaurant is, but not the rooms.
