    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.
