Pretty perfect
A home away from home. Nice host who is extremely helpful. The place is spacious and the rooms are great. We have enjoyed it immensely and really love that everything is pretty close by. No reason to rent a car there are busses going to all places all the time.

A lovely quiet beach across the road .

While there are several good restaurants in the area many are quite pricey. The Roti Den offers takeaway type rotis and curry and rice plates (very mild) and is good value.

Paynes Bay is so beautiful. Quite beach to relax. The sea is stunning. Most of all, the sunset watched from this beach are breathtaking.
