The apartment is generous in size and has wonderful views. It is really clean and comfortable too. We really appreciated the small details that the host provided us with to ensure that we had a great start to our holidays.

Loved the footpaths from the property all the way to the beach. The only negative was that the walls of the flat were very thin - we could hear every word from the TV of the adjoining flat when they put it on in the evening and people walking around in the flat upstairs.
