Beautiful apartment (we had nr1) literally looking at the beach from the livingroom and kitchen area. When you cross the street you are at the beach. Wonderful view of the ocean, when you are having breakfast on the terrace or with the glass sliding doors open in the livingroom. Everything was very clean, modern and had everything you can possibly need there. it felt great to spend a couple of days around Christmas there and we felt very spoiled.

Perfect spot just close enough to town - but not too close. And near the lovely coastal walk. Very comfortable room. Charming staff to greet you. A lovely spot. I'd stay here again for sure.

Stunning location - right on the beachfront with an amazing view to wake up to! We booked a suite for our 1 night which was massive and very well equipped. Breakfast was very nice but there were a small number of waiting staff so took a bit of time.
