    To many chairs to climb, 3 floors was not good on my knees, that is the only thing I was very unhappy about

    The place is a perfect holiday getaway, all facilities is well organized

    I was expecting a jacuzzi because the description read hot tub. The stove gave us a few issues but someone came to attend to it.

    The host was very interactive, the place has amazing views. Pool is very clean I loved that there was a kiddies pool. The place is exactly as per the pictures on the site. I was expecting 2 bedrooms to my surprise it was 3 bedrooms. Peaceful and serene. The swing in the lounge was a hit with my kids. Very cosy apartment.

    Amazing holiday flat! Highly recommend! Our family had a fantastic stay at this modern and very quiet holiday flat. The view was absolutely beautiful, overlooking both the sea and the swimming pool. We especially loved the cozy balcony area, where we could relax and enjoy a BBQ.The flat was exceptionally clean, neat, and very modern, and the beds were very comfortable. The water pressure in the shower was amazing!The location was ideal, with shops nearby, and we found it easy to get around by Tuk Tuki. We really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this flat to anyone looking for a relaxing and convenient getaway.

    This was honestly such an amazing place to stay. Great location with an amazing view as well as pretty close to the beach, restaurants, shopping centre and casino. It was very clean and had everything you would need. During our stay we unfortunately experienced quite a bit of rain and thankfully there were so many streaming services to keep us entertained indoors. It is also very self-catering friendly. Beds were comfy. The only critique is the showerhead which we wish could have been adjustable as it aims quite high which can result in the water leaking out the shower.

    The cleaner could've put more effort into cleaning, we found stick on nails and cigarette butts on the floor, some of the dishes had to be rewashed before use and the showers needs abit of attention. Other than this we had a beautiful stay.

    The host was one of my absolute favorite part's of this stay, she was warm, welcoming, easy to reach, extremely helpful and made us feel at home. The accommodation was beautiful as seen on the pictures. It was peaceful and everything we had hoped for.

    An ideal vacation stay unit in an attractive block.

    Very small quibbles: the hot plates on the stove were a little temperamental, and the second bathroom shower is a little small and needs a minor upgrade. Otherwise, all good.

    The apartment has everything one needs when on holiday at the coast. The unit is in an attractive, well-maintained block. It has lovely sea and pool views. The air conditioners were a Godsend as the weather was unbearably hot for two days. Ashley is an attentive and amiable host.

    We had a huge luggage and climbing the stairs was quite an uncomfortable exercise. Other than that, nothing to complain about.

    The facility, it was so nice and huge for an entire family. The place really had everything and more. There's plenty of board games for entertainment and kids enjoyed monopoly. Very close to the sea, restaurants and Kwik Spar.

    We loved our stay at the apartment, it was so cosy and comfortable, affordable and very neat and clean and tidy and spacious. A gorgeous apartment with perfect views of the pool and sea.Absolutely gorgeous, spacious apartment with stylish decorated rooms. I loved the rooms and decor.Ashley is an exceptional host right down to the finest of detail .She goes above and beyond to ensure ones stay is one to remember. It was defnitely a home away from our home and we felt so blessed , very good security, situated close to the best amenities, beaches , malls, etc. There was nothing we lacked in this apartment, it had everything we needed and made our stay even more than we expected. Would recommend this place to all my friends and family and boast of our stay there.
