We want to emphasize the extremely fine accomodation - brandnew and very tasteful interior and furnishment. We felt very comfortable and at home in Angela’s apartment. Not to mention Angela’s hospitality and extraordinary personal service: She spontaneously offered us a lift from the busstop to the apartment and furthermore took us to the point Key viewpoint, and brought ur luggage to the bus again. Angela is just adorable and a very special person

The location was fabulous-right on the beach with fabulous views all around. Reception staff were courteous and helpful. The room was spacious and spotlessly clean and the bathroom was especially nice.

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.
