Pretty much nothing beyond the beds and a bathroom. No fridge, no microwave, no desk, no shampoo, no soap. Overpriced!

This guesthouse was fine, it was nothing fancy but was clean and comfortable enough, decent value for the money. The food at the restaurant was surprisingly good.

The washbasin at bathroom in cabin is sooo small and eerily positioned, technically it is not usable for washing face. This is must to do list for updates.

Guesthouse Gerdi was a very cute place. The room and bathroom were nice and spacious. The staff were very friendly and it was a simple and fast check in. The shower was nice but the floor in the bathroom isn’t slanted towards the drain so water goes all over the floor unless you use a towel to trap it. Do not leave clothes or anything you don’t want to get wet on the bathroom floor.

Guesthouse Gerdi was wonderful. You have the ocean on one side, mountains and mountain views on multiple sides, beautiful horses near the property. The hotel itself is cozy, clean, and comfortable. We had dinner at the on-site restaurant and the food was delicious. Magical place!

Cute guesthouse
Great location but room was small for 3 adults. Lovely property location right on the sea! Had animals like horses and sheep nearby, and had breakfast for a fee. For 3 adults i would book 2 rooms or a suite next time.

It was very cramped even when we asked for 2 adults and a child. There wasn’t even a kettle in the room for a hot cup of tea. Dining was extremely expensive but no other choice. A simple breakfast could have been included given that there was not even a kettle in the room - but the management had decided to make the most of tourists
