    “Lovely spot - less "shack" and more "elegant apartment", very good location close to shops, restaurant and beach. Stunning views from bedroom windows and a well-provisioned kitchen. I was quite nervous about transferring the $500 damage...”

The Fisherman's Shack Prime location directly opposite the beach, with uninterrupted views of The Entrance. Our 2 bedroom cottage provides a comfortable and clean stay. The space Complete waterfront cottage with stunning ocean views. Our Fisherman’s Shack has been a labour of love - we have recently renovated all rooms except the bathroom.

Ceiling fans are also fitted in the bedrooms and lounge/dining rooms for your comfort.
