We stayed in Allegra House for two nights, which was an amazing experience! The rooms are nice and cosy, the view is breathtaking and the breakfast is delicious. Brita & Heinz are really lovely friendly hosts. We'll be back!

Angela and the staff were super friendly and helpful. As it happened to be a slower day, I got an upgrade on my room. Totally unexpected but much appreciated! The location of the Lodge was great and close to the ferries. Can highly recommend staying here!

The ocean directly across the road in full view of both lounge and bedroom was amazing. I sat and watched the sunset and sunrise from the couch.

Spectacular views!! Literally so close to the beachfront that when you open the doors you can hear the gentle waves lapping on the shore - amazing!! I also arrived about an hour earlier than anticipated but as the room was ready allowed me to check in sooner. The staff were so attentive and helpful with a few of my request which was great!!

The condo was very well appointed with all amenities. Balcony offered spectacular views of the water as well as amazing sunrises and sunsets. Conveniently located one kilometer from the town walking along the beach at low tide. Theo, the owner, provided a gracious welcome sparking wine in hand. We appreciated his assistance while parking our beast of a Ford Ranger! Would definitely return.
