    There was a lot of space, and had everything we needed. Also, it’s a place very child friendly, with a playroom and baby facilities. The bed was super comfortable and the host helped us with everything we asked.

    Very family friendly unit that we booked. A well fenced front area that allowed sliding doors to be opened while kids could freely go in and out of unit without fear of them being in harms way of cars entering and leaving the parking area. The unit was clean, modern and had all the comforts of home with a great view.

    Straight across from the beach, the location is second to none. I liked the fact that the ground floor area around the apartment is fenced, although it is with glass, and the ground hard tile, so just watch the smallest of kiddies. Beds were clean and comfortable and it was well priced for a family. Excellent water pressure - and the teenager loved having a bath for once!
