Nick M – 11th March 2024
Skye Lodge is a nice big home just 5-10 min walk to main beach and town. With plenty of space it suits families or friends. However, be prepared for a strict no noise rule from 9pm which is slightly challenging during Summer. The rooms were spacious but do not have aircon and the master is very hot. I would recommend for a relaxed getaway
