The location is highly praised for its proximity to the beach and stunning views. Guests appreciate the quiet surroundings and easy access to local attractions. Some noted noise disturbances from nearby areas, but these were relatively few.
Guests generally found the property comfortable, with special mentions of the quality of the mattresses and the spaciousness of the apartment. Some discomfort was noted due to lack of air conditioning and sun cover during warmer weather.

Inside the welcome/information folder is a notice of pet friendly & conditions? Please can you explain this to me? Having stripped the beds as required, we found the Mattress protector heavily stained as well as the pillow protectors, they need washing. We love this Apartment & will keep coming if the above addressed.

We loved the size & facilities. We were surprised to find soap, toilet roll, dishwasher tablets, tea, etc for the first day or so and were really grateful. We chose to self cater and although there were a wide range of kitchen facilities it would benefit from a better vegetable peeler, larger saucepan/s and instructions for the microwave / oven were missing. During our stay there were people in the neighbouring appartments but we were not disturbed by noise, equally the park area was not noisy either. The walk to the beach was short and the facilities at the beach good - lifeguard station, bar, cafe. Thank you for trying to think of everything to make our stay perfect.
