10/10 Exceptional! (22 reviews)
The apartment was set up nicely for 2 couples. Nice sized kitchen and dining area.
Bedrooms very spacious and restrooms very clean and spacious.
They could provide more bath towels and wash clothes and pool towels. Only provided 2 per bathroom for 4 people staying a full week. Not enough toilet tissue either.
No coffee maker was provided. We purchased a small one and left it there when we left.
All in all very nice and very reasonably priced.
