We stayed one night at Val’s place and absolutely loved it! The house faces a stunning beach view with easy access to the shore and the beach itself was simply amazing. Everything was exactly as shown in the pictures on Airbnb, and the place was perfect for our group of 11, including two children. Val was incredibly responsive and accommodating, even allowing us an early check-in. He was always ready to help and made our stay so smooth. The house had all the facilities we needed, and we truly enjoyed every moment. Thanks again, Val!
