Make Enquiry About Calypso Luxury Holiday Home - overlooking Long Beach
Very nice location, beautiful villa, we have spend a very nice stay in RUSSELL.
Thank you for your kindness.
Great host - thank you! Such a nice place, especially with kids, pool was a real hit. Amazing view! Really want to go back.
The house was simply wonderful and we can't think of anything that wasn't just right. I'd also like to thank you for your attentive service from my initial enquiry through to picking up the key and showing us around the house. Made us feel welcome. So often these days when we book accommodation it's all so impersonal - sometimes you don't even pick up the key from anyone, it's just in a security box. Thanks again and we'll definitely be back. We just love Russell.
Lesley was the perfect host ! Very informative and helpful and super friendly. There was nothing at all negative I could say about Lesley. The place was beautiful and view stunning. I would love to own it myself! A big thank you from the Anderson family. The view and the smell of the sea in the morning was simply magical...
