Guests that stayed at this property said
The apartment consistently receives high marks for cleanliness, with guests noting it as spotless and tidy. One review mentioned a kitchen cleanliness issue, but this seems to be an isolated incident.
The location is frequently described as perfect, with easy access to the beach, local shops, and attractions. The proximity to amenities and the beach is a highlight for many guests.
Guests find the apartment comfortable, with a homely atmosphere and cosy furnishings. The beds are comfortable, and the apartment is well-equipped, contributing to a relaxing stay.
The on-site facilities, including a pub and pool, are generally appreciated, though there are comments about the pub's service and the pool's opening hours. Some guests suggest improvements like a dishwasher and mention minor maintenance issues.
While guests mention the owner's helpfulness and the provision of games and DVDs, there are no specific references to gifts. Therefore, it is not possible to score thoughtfulness based on gifts, and the score is set to null.
