The apartment was well appointed with all that was required for a relaxing stay by the beach. The host of games, kids toys and DVDs were perfect for the more inclement days. A great location!

Had family beach house on PI for decades, now revisiting with teens. Location ideal for walking to shops/town and the beach. Beautiful views from generous floor to ceiling windows in living space. Very clean. Heated blankets in bedrooms with tv made for cosy wind downs at bedtime. Dimmer switches in living space & pedal rubbish bins for bathrooms would be great additions. Highly recommend.
