Loved it
Pros:

Staff were friendly, apartment was generous, excellent spot

Cons:

Resort spa was closed for maintenance the 4 days we were there, shower leaked and had to ask for extra towels to mop up the floor. Unfortunately the washing machine was full of dirt and sand. I had to run a rinse cycle, after I'd used it first to clean it, then hand rinsed my clothes and ran them through the machine again.

Pros:

great spot in town.

Cons:

appears the heating for pool and spa was down. pool was not heated (been there before and it was) and spa was 'under maintenance' and not hot. was a big factor for paying extra to stay there so was disappointing.

A fabulous stay appreciated by the whole family
Pros:

The apartment has abundant space, even if you were to invite friends for drinks or dinner. The views are really good. The furniture is stylish and comfortable

Cons:

The loose carpets need to be washed. The barbeque definately needs to be replaced, the number one burner is a safety risk and leaks gas at the knob where it burned through - it has had a good life and must be replaced before someone gets hurt
