Family stay in January 2026
Pros:

Location handy to beach and shops. Our apartment 44 had been recently renovated which was nicer than previous appartments we have stay in at the complex. Pool lovely. Parking secure downstairs.

Cons:

No issues with the property. I’m still waiting to have the $200 holding amount returned back to my bank account and it’s now been a week. I’ve emailed administration and they said it’s sorted their end, but speaking to my bank they say it’s property end.
