Pros:

Great location across the road from the beautiful beach! Unit is spacious and reception staff were helpful. Undercover parking available.

Cons:

Unit is not well equipped, with aged furniture and several broken fittings. Could use a spruce up to make it a more comfortable stay.

Not recommended
Pros:

The location right on the beach was excellent and the markets are held right next door. Rachael was also very friendly and tried very hard to accommodate us.

Cons:

The unit assigned to us was very run down. The curtains were falling off the windows, the cupboards were full of dust and dead bugs and there were a couple of cockroaches. When I complained we were moved to another unit but it wasn't much better. There were a couple of dead cockroaces and baits, the curtains were stained and also falling off the windows. I could go on but long story short we didnt feel comfortable and so cut our 5 day stay to just 1 night.

Good location, convenient for what we wanted. Had everything we needed. Friendly helpful staff.
Pros:

Nice covered deck to sit on and look out over the pool area. Quiet and private. Super handy to waterside walkway, and hotel/restaurant next door. Comfortable furnishings and facilities. Covered parking.

Cons:

Getting a little tired inside, but nothing too serious. No Aircon in the bedroom. Two flights of stairs were a wee challenge for hubby.
