The apartment was lovely and clean. It was a very good size and had excellent amenities. The only thing that disappointed us was it appeared the rooms all had a view from the advertising but ours was at the bottom with a staff workroom in front of it. No view at all or balcony.

Opted for the Penthouse Apartment which was lovely. Sat on the balcony and drank wine. Nice and clean and reasonably priced
Great location directly opposite the beach but unfortunately view is of the petrol station. Fitness centre is a 7 minute walk away not on-site. Apartment was comfortable and clean, apart from the random sock left under the coffee table. Kitchen well equipped but unfortunately the dishwasher was not working
