Had a one night stay in an ocean view room. Fantastic view would have been great to be able to use the seating on the balcony but it was very wet. Walking distance to nice cafes and restaurants. Comfortable bed , would stay again.

We loved the view - it was amazing. The unit was very nice, the only thing was blocked sink in the bathroom which we discovered as soon as we came. It looked terrible, we couldn’t use it. We told the stuff, but they were not very helpful, nothing was done about it. We had to stay with blocked sink with 2 small kids, very inconvenient.
