Super
Voor de tweede keer hier geweest. Helft van het hotel waa recent helemaal gerenoveerd. Schoon en ruime kamer met heerlijk groot bed. Geweldige locatie aan de zee waar je de walvissen bij het ontbijt ziet.

Natasha was super kind and helpful. She helped us to book the whale tour. The guest house is spacious with comfortable rooms and a very nice bathroom. At breakfast we had the chance to see the whales directly from our table. It was amazing !
