The batch is perfect and located at the back of property which makes it totally private. It has all the amenities needed including an oven, full sized fridge and a decent sized kitchen for cooking those gourmet breakfasts the wifey loves. Has everything in the kitchen you need. They supply coffee beans are supplied as noticed if ever curious. Cafes are a 2min drive up the and supermarket is less than 5mins from batch. The lost Spring Spa is close by. In other words everything is located so close by. Most of all beaches are lovely. Highly recommended and will be rebooking
