Very close to the ocean/beach. The whole place is very walkable. Parking is something to be desired, however, that seems to be the case for all that live in the area. I recommend not using your vehicle unless necessary. The cottage is very close to all the local eateries, bars and markets. The place had almost everything you need, the only issue we had was there was hardly any space to put your things away. Other than that the host was very accommodating and the location was spectacular for a nice quiet getaway.
