The property was immaculate and well-kept. It had a feeling of a home away from home. The host was helpful in suggesting activities to do and was very welcoming. The breakfast was genuine, healthy and enough to keep us full till lunch. The view from the room was awesome. Location is nice and peaceful. Restaurants could be found within walking distance across the bridge.

The apartment is so well kitted out with everything you could think of. The rooms were beautiful and comfortable with en-suites and plenty of hot water. Location and proximity to the islands attractions couldn't be better, and to top it off the hospitalily from Enda the host is next to none.

    The location is absolutely stunning. It is right on the beach with fantastic views. We went for a walk at suntan was unforgettable. The hotel itself is very cosy and cute with great atmosphere. The staff was very friendly and accommodation. I would also highly recommend the restaurant. The food at dinner was great! Breakfast was also lovely. Takeaway lunch was somewhat disappointing, but not a deal-breaker. We have noted it down for our next trip and will recommend to friends!
