A lovely, peaceful, but unfortunately all too short holiday!
Pros:

The apartments were great. They are very spacious with everything we needed. We had a beautiful view of the beach and the Strand and it's waterpark were easy walking distance. A grocery store, pubs and eateries were also nearby. The city was not too far away. We had plenty of room and the apartments were very clean. Security was also very good and we had the convenience of a carpark not far from the door. We didn't use them, but the tennis court and covered BBQ area were a surprise addition. We had 2 units , one below us so we could catch up with all our family members and each unit was large enough for both parties to congregate in one of them for meals as well. We can't recommend them highly enough. The staff were very friendly and sorted out a small problem for us quickly and efficiently.

Cons:

Nothing
