Direct answers

The questions worth answering before you arrive.

Where do I see live prices and availability?

Choose your dates in any Check Availability form. You will continue to the secure reservation page, where current rates, room options and bookable extras are confirmed.

Can you help me choose a room?

Yes. Tell Tere your group size, preferred bed setup, whether you need a private or shared kitchen, and what matters most. She can narrow the options here before you book.

What is the difference between a room, apartment and villa?

Rooms keep the stay simple. Apartments add a private kitchen and more independence. Villas are private bases for groups, retreats and celebrations. Start with the way you travel, then compare the exact fit.

Which stays have a private or shared kitchen?

Apartments #6, #11, #21, #22, #25 and #26 have a private kitchen. Rooms #7 and #8 have shared kitchen access. Room #23 is a room, not an apartment.

Can I search for more than one room?

Yes. Select the number of rooms in the availability form, then set adults, children and children's ages separately for each room before searching. This keeps the guest distribution clear for every room.

Which stays work well for families?

Apartments with a private kitchen are a useful starting point for families, especially when sleep schedules and meals need more flexibility. Share the children's ages and your preferred setup with Tere so she can compare the practical options.

Can I stay for a longer visit or work remotely?

Several apartments offer more independence for longer stays, and Wi-Fi is available across the property. Exact housekeeping format, extras and current terms depend on the dates and stay type, so confirm them before booking.

Can I manage an existing reservation online?

Yes. Use Manage Reservation in the main menu or footer to open the secure reservation-management page.

Is Dreamcatcher close to the beach?

The property is positioned for beach, surf, restaurants and town life. Exact walking expectations depend on your group, mobility and the specific plan, so ask the team for the most useful route context.
