"Perfect location with assigned parking space. Everything was set up nicely, inviting us for a great stay in this apartment style unit. Easy walking the Beach Road, directly across from the marina and near to lots of bars and restaurants. Nice hot breakfast included for Saturday morning at the restaurant next door. There was someone in the unit above us that was up many time during the night and walked very loudly across the floor. Also, the bed is a bit soft. But all in all this is a wonderful place to stay and we’d book again!!"
