Enjoy delicious home cooked breakfasts in the dining room or on the patio beside a sparkling pool. The old colonial shutters, sheer crisp white curtains, high ceilings and unique mosaic floor create an airy bright atmosphere throughout the house.

Each spacious, air-conditioned room includes flat-screen TV with Satellite channels, tea & coffee facilities, IPod-compatible clock-radios, telephones, hairdryers and bathroom accessories. There are also guest laptops, for those who need to check information and e-mails.
