Location, car was secured overnight, room had a great view.

The vanilla spray when you entered the room was very overpowering and no aircon in the main bedroom part can cause it to get a bit warm.

Our stay was wonderful. The apartment was so clean and comfortable. It had everything we needed for a self contained stay. The facilities were awesome and the location was perfect - beach directly across the street!

Everything was great!

"It was lovely and I would visit again."

8.0

The apartment was clean and well positioned. We had cafes and restaurants only a short walk away and the calm beach right across the road. We even had a bit of a view through the trees to the water.

I found the layout of the apartment a little strange. The main bedroom was positioned near the balcony which gave it all of the sun and warmth, whereas the kitchen and lounge was behind the bedroom and was poky and small, and sunless. Also, in a 2 bedroom apartment that sleeps 4, a tiny 2person couch is not enough. It was ok for a couple of nights, but for a week I think it would end up annoying.

The complex has everything you need for a relaxing stay. Larger size rooms with beach view, clean facilities, secure under covered carparking. The location close to shops and restaurants an extra bonus.

Street noise at night
