Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Pros: Secluded and quiet. Functional Cons: It's basically a tiny house set down in a parking lot with a view of nothing. Fine for one night but would not recommend for anything longer.

It is very clean and everything in the property is new. Its location is kind of awkward besides a large parking lot. It doesn't look like a location for a cottage. They should provide instructions of how to access this cottage.

So this place was a good place to stay as we start our drive around the country. It's in the middle of nowhere (by beach though) but not scenic. The room is comfortable and clean. It's really quiet. The only downside is there was very limited hot water. My wife used it all up in a not very long shower.

Small, cosy cottage with amazing service

Cottage is located close to commercial/industrial area and a golf course. Nice view. Stayed there for one night, 4 persons (3 adults and a teenager), which worked quite well. There's a grocery story, pharmacy, manned gas station and Thai restaurant/take out place within a couple of kilometers. Clean, new, well-kept cottage, but not super large - it worked really well for a one night stay and could have worked for a night or two more, but not for a longer stay. There's no onsite reception or such, but the owner is easily available by phone and very, very helpfull - he even helped return some left-behind AirPods on very short notice.
