10/10 Excellent
"Wow super appartement tout équipé Avec une belle piscine. Besoin d’un véhicule pour aller à la plage, au restaurant, au bar et activités du complexe ( Karaoke et music live) Petite épicerie à quelques pas à pied. Belle plage de sable blanc et apnée directement de la plage. Nous avons vu des aras rouges juste dans les arbres près de la plage. Une navette peu vous apporte à la plage voisine ou à un restaurant."
