We stayed for 2 nights. Staff was very friendly and helpful. I will stay here again. Only thing was there was no house keeping to clear the bins that is the only feedback. Otherwise, good location at a beautiful spot. We stayed here in the past and we plan to stay here again.

Spacious and clean apartment in a good location just back from the beach and within walking distance of restaurants etc. Only issue we had was how bright the bedroom was in the morning. A really ineffective blind was the only thing separating us from an east facing window into bright morning sun. Bring an eye mask if you stay here!
