The location was fantastic, directly opposite the beach, and close to beautiful restaurants and cafes. Didn't have to use the car, we were able to walk everywhere. The heated pool was an added bonus for the kids!

Great location, but old tired and dirty appartment.
Pros:

Great location, everything nearby.

Cons:

The cleanliness was seriously lacking. The carpets in the bedroom smelled bad, the pillows were terrible. I’m sure not all the apartments are like this, but the one we stayed in was terrible. Worst of all there was no toilet paper in the toilet. 😏 We had to go to the shops to get some since reception was closed by the time we arrived to check in.

Will absolutely stay again!
Pros:

Excellent location, quiet, and great customer service. Great value for money. My mother was also very impressed and we’ll be visiting again!

Cons:

The garage car park was difficult for me to park and manoeuvre in, however I do have a large SUV and it really wasn’t such a problem considering everything else about the property made up for it.
