"Super-comfortable and a great location. A bit of road noise to consider and balconies not private"

8.0

Lovely spacious apartment. Very comfortable and good facilities. An issue with the toilet was sorted very professionally - impressive considering it was Easter Sunday. Great location for beach lovers.

Road noise was quite high and car wash across the road was noisy. Balconies were spaciouis but not very private.

Great location and nice apartment, with a good coffee shop and pub on site.

The chairs on the balcony were mostly broken and we had difficulty with the door lock, but everything else was fine.

"We really loved staying here"

9.0

We loved the location, the view, the clean linen. The range of facilities in unit,the spacious feel, the secure parking, cooking facilities.The large balcony. It was a great stay

Each unit is individually owned so varies in standard, ours was good, but some maintenance required, a little tired but nothing that spoilt our great stay.
