Before we arrived I must admit I did my homework regarding the drop off situation including parking, although the supplied information prior to arrival was comprehensive! Upon entering the apartment we could not have been happier. A beautiful apartment with everything you could possibly need for your stay, and a view to die for. Quite simply I would have no problems living in this apartment. The location is excellent, a nice stroll to town or beach, the Italian restaurant a little way up the hill is highly recommended!
