Very enjoyable stay - highly recommend
Pros:

We had a beautiful 3-night stay at Crest Apartments Main Beach in a one-bedroom unit on the 17th floor. The views were absolutely stunning and made the whole stay feel extra special.

The apartment was clean, spacious, and had everything we needed. Perfect location too — close to everything but still quiet and relaxing.

Overall, such an easy, enjoyable stay. We’d definitely come back!

Cons:

Last night we were in the indoor pool and spa and the chlorine levels were excessive. Both of us had very red eyes and bleached swimwear
