We had a great stay at Boohay and would absolutely consider coming again. The apartment was clean, well stocked and had the most amazing views! The only downside was the waiting for the washing machine m/dryer, finding people would leave washing inside the machine for hours once finished and meaning numerous trips down to keep checking (which isn’t the fault of the owner and most people don’t wash on holiday) . Other than that everything was perfect-thank you for hosting the base for a lovely, much needed holiday with my family x
