      Exploring the charming coastal town was a delightful experience for our group, especially with the stunning views that accompanied each step. The cozy accommodations provided the perfect home base, but we did find the breakfast options a bit limited for our taste. Overall, the blend of history and scenic beauty made for a memorable getaway, despite those minor hiccups.

      We had a fantastic time wandering through the picturesque streets filled with historic charm, indulging in mouthwatering local dishes that truly made the culinary experience memorable. The only downside was that the schedule felt a bit rushed at times, leaving us wanting more leisurely moments to soak in the scenery.
