Tina and Mel are fabulous hosts who added perfect touches like warm fresh baked bread and chocolates. The place was phenomenally decorated, the beds extremely comfortable, all amenities in the full kitchen,, gorgeous garden with sitting spots,, great walking area on the lagoon, walking distance to a grocery store. Having laundry facilities half way through the trip was an added bonus. We wished we had more time there.

    De View was the perfect place for us to stay for 3 nights. The location was ideal as it was close to town and many of the attractions we wanted to see. The property itself is clean, neat and very comfortable. The hosts thought of everything one might need. The hosts themselves are amazing! They were ready to help and make our stay comfortable. The breakfast and the view is something to rave about. We could have easily stayed longer.
