: Breakfast array was lovely with several choices each day. I appreciated that the menu was slightly different each day, but with staples (like yogurt) always available. I loved the outdoor seating. The proprietors were helpful and friendly. There were beach chairs available to borrow to take to the beach.
: I may have missed it, but a heads up that some of the rooms are up very steep stairs would have been warranted. The only other thing that could have been improved, in my opinion, is the quality of the coffee. After the first couple mornings, I just had water and then got a good coffee up the street as I was heading out for adventures.

: Guests and hosts are super friendly. Many guests return every year at same time fir annual respite so they know all about the area. My tiny room 11 was perfect for me traveling solo. Love after hours check in. In better weather expect fire pit would be fun congregating point. Cold breakfast each morning was very attractive and tasty. Loved afternoon snacks left out to help ourselves. Appreciated list if local restaurants. All info on buffet table was very helpful.
: Hard to think of any negatives but could suggest another sign before driveway. At night arrival hard to find turn first time.Ideally there could be comfortable place to sit. One afternoon I had few hours to kill. Had to sit alone in my room. A comfy chair somewhere would have been nice (assume in nice weather I would have sat outside).
