"Outstanding accommodation"

10.0

This accommodation is absolutely outstanding and if I could give more stars I would. Thank you so much Shaun for being amazing when I called in a stressed state due to our ferry being canceled. If I could give you more stars I would. We never expected to get the views we did. Again a massive thank you

There was absolutely nothing we didn't like

"The location is good, stay was comfortable but feel cheated by booking.com"

6.0

The Apartment was okay located on 2nd floor. .

We had requested for an elevator access room but there was no elevator access for our apartment. Our rooms windows faced a tall white wall and under the room window there is trash disposal area so that's a put off. Our living room and balcony had an very little ocean view. Sitting in the balcony you can only see the front apartment balcony wall (blue in color) with little ocean view as Tall trees cover most of the view. only Front 2 apartments have a good view from living room. We had booked the rooms well in advance (over 5 months). we booked front facing apartment and called to apartment directly to block the same. They did the needful and put us in front apartment, but did not specify that those apartments do not have elevator access. But just 3 days before we checked-in Booking.com moved us into one of the back apartments with very little view. and still no elevator access. And the lady at the reception could not do anything when we checked in as all other apartments were booked. We were exhausted carrying up and down 4 large suitcases for a short 2 days stay. Kindly note that only the back side 2 apartments have elevator access and the view from there is very little ocean view.
