Seaworthy Sanctuary Jan Juc
We had a lovely stay at Jan Juc. The weather turned on for us beautiful days with cool nights. Great location and a great home with good appointments thru out the house. Close enough to walk to the Cafes and Pub for dinner, but far enough away from the main roads to be a quiet retreat.
