The only challenge was the steps to the unit and the steep walk into the resort if you don’t have a car – but I took it as a great way to get those steps in and shed a few kilos! Overall, a beautiful and comfortable stay that I’d definitely recommend.

I had such a wonderful stay at Ocean Gem. The apartment was beautifully set up with a cute and thoughtful design that made it feel so welcoming. The beds were extremely comfortable, which made resting after a long day a real pleasure. What I loved most were the breathtaking sea views and how convenient the location was – so close to shops, which made everything so easy. Our host, Sheena, was amazing! She was hands-on and even shared great guides that really enhanced our stay and helped us explore the area with ease. Overall, a perfect mix of comfort, convenience, and beauty. I’d definitely recommend Ocean Gem to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway! 🌊✨

The place was very clean and neat. Excellent getaway spot for a couple. I particularly liked that the area was safe. The host is very friendly and accommodating. I would definitely return! The views are spectacular with a breathtaking sunrise over the beautiful ocean.

Everything was excellent except we didn't think we would have to carry our luggage upstairs. Maybe they warned us about no lift, and I never saw it, but for 80 year olds it is not ideal.

The stairs were hectic to carry luggage and groceries up. Poor lighting outside patio.

Beautiful location. Unit was very clean and tidy there was a fresh scent when we arrived. A pleasant stay, definitely a home away from home.

Great location close to beach and restaurants, communicative host, small apartment with good facilities.

The bathroom basin is too small and cracked- the shower drain had a cover missing and the shower tap falls off. I thought it was a two bathroom- took it for the bath tub- for my daughter to use - and the second bathroom which wasn’t there. At any rate we each used the shower and nobody died. Thank you!

The location- Sheena’s videos were extremely helpful. I really liked that you have a mop broom and domestos and liquid hand soaps. Beach towels and bath towels also appreciated.

The communication from the host ahead of arrival was great - she sent brilliant instructions on how to get into the unit. Arriving at the unit was very easy and the keys were in a lockbox, which was perfect for arriving later in the evening. The unit itself is gorgeous with a fantastic view, and the bed was very comfortable. Lots of nice places to eat nearby. Would definitely stay there again.

This was truly an Ocean Gem!! We loved our stay and will struggle to stay anywhere else than in this place. It was so easy and so very accommodating for us and our kids. And the location is perfect with everything walking distance. Don't need a car for anything. Thank you so so much!!

Only comment is that the light switches were a bit confusing on how they work and connected with other outlet plugs.

I didn't have breakfast, so cant comment on that. The reat was good. On arrival electricity was off in the area. But everything else was really nice.

Could be more modern

Very nice and peaceful with an awesome ocean view, easy access to the ocean and shops around everything is walking distance from where you staying. The host is awesome and gives such good videos and information on the place so you don’t have to even ask any questions as it’s all be answered in the videos. The area is so safe and peaceful with everyone walking there dogs and running and walking along to beach. Also Seattle coffee 2 minute walk which was great. Overall would recommend to anyone to stay here well worth it the money and experience

Excellent location relative to the airport. Great view over the sea! Good restaurants within walking distance. Safe complex and secure parking. Comfortable for 2 people.

Carrying luggage to the 4th floor was a toughee. Bad timing visit to the noise from the construction underneath. It's not the owners problem, though. Monkeys roaming the place. We were warned, though. You can not freely enjoy the breeze from your open door or window.

The awesome welcome from Sheena with all the guide operators' videos. The house is perfectly equipped with a coffee machine + coffee and teas with milk. Aircons and fans, etc. It's just a home away from home 🏡.
