The apartment we had, had breath taking views, and I would highly recommend it if you enjoy watching the world pass by, sunsets and sunrises. Its so handy to great coffee shops, restaurants, convenience store and large shopping centre. We will defiantly be back but will stay longer than 7 days as we enjoyed it so much.

Excellent facilities and location. Easy check in and good communication with the staff.
Room with a fabulous sea view. Great pool/spa areas with access to both areas so we could choose the one that suited our needs.
The direct connection to the beach was also convenient.
Staff were chatty whether it be 5 am on our way to watch the sunrise when he was cleaning the pool or in the evening when he was watering the gardens.
Books and puzzles available in the reception area to borrow.
Short walk to the ice cream shop cafes and superette. The Ginger Factory, Nut Factory The Big Pineapple and Aquarium all a short drive away. We went to The Ginger/Nut Factory prior to checking in and The Big Pineapple on our way home after check out
Looking forward to our next visit

Staff were very good. Some items showing a bit of wear and tear (lounge), dish washer did not clean dinner plates, flaking off the ceiling but all up the apartment was comfortable and quiet and in a good location.
