Highlights
Hospitality: Host invited guests to an 88th birthday party
“This spot near West Beach seems ideal for longer stays; the rooms are generously sized, many with good light and well-planned kitchens. For me, a key advantage is its balance: close to the beach and shops but still offering a uniquely calm, almost familial atmosphere thanks to attentive hosts.”
