Right on the beach front, with fantastic views

Shared space of washing machine and dryer with housekeeping, and other apartment. Would be better inside the apartment.

"The views made our stay here. The rooftop was lovely in the evenings but some of the areas leading up to the upper deck"

10.0

We had a lovely stay at the Hydro. The view was definitely a highlight. The apartment itself was nice and bright. It is older inside and not fancy but again, the views were spectacular!

The older carpets and it didn’t have much ambiance.
