A great choice for families. Clean and comfortable, and just a short walk to the pools and shops. There’s a bit of wear and tear so don’t expect ultimate high end luxury, but everything works and the rooms are clean. We would definitely stay again. Although perhaps we’d request an upstairs unit next time as in the bottom apartment we could hear a bit of stomping coming from upstairs even though the rooms in general seem relatively well sound proofed.

Nice apartment, although this was the first time we have stayed in a ground floor apartment. It was slightly dark, didn't get as much light as the upstairs apartments and noise from the upstairs apartment was very loud at times. Also the outdoor patio although nice, not very private with people walking past constantly.

This apartment was immaculate. Very well appointed with lovely hosts. The only thing I could say that I find frustrating is that when you have a full kitchen and there are no basics such as cooking oils and condiments that you need very little of and the local grocery store is really expensive for these items. Otherwise, it really had everything and we had a wonderful stay.
