    Very nice guesthouse located in a quiet neighbourhood just a short walk to the beach. Our room was spacious and nicely furnished. We liked the common space with games and info on local activity providers. Syd was super helpful. The breakfast we...

    Voor de tweede keer binnen één week verbleven we bij Syd’s. Deze keer slechts één nacht omdat we de volgende ochtend heel vroeg op moesten. Het voelde als thuiskomen! De communicatie met Syd verliep (net als de 1e keer) heel vlot en soepel. Omdat...

    Cenamos en el restaurante y la comida estaba buenísima. Nos llamaron un taxi al día siguiente a las 6 de la mañana para coger el ferry y nos dejaron fruta preparada para llevarnos. Todo un detalle.

    L'endroit est joli et on s'y sent en sécurité. Nous y avons passé le weekend et le petit-déjeuner offert était le brunch proposé par l'établissement.

    Nous sommes arrivés tard dans la soirée, et n'y passions que la nuit. Mais cela avait l'air plutôt pas mal. Le petit déjeuner compris est en fait un brunch qui a l'air excellent. Proposition de venir nous chercher à l'aéroport très pratique.
