Friendly, kind interested and caring well beyond expectation. Rooms supremely comfortable, food varied each night and delicious. Breakfast and lunch offered with grace and pleasure also. Good place for quiet time but close to whale watching trips . Even its own helipad for trips to mountains and sea.! Don’t miss this gem."
