We booked a three bedroom residence. It was so clean and welcoming. Staff were very friendly. Great location at the waterfront. We relaxed very much. We got a last check-out free of charge which was a bonus. Would definitely stay again.

The room was fantastic but heats up during the day.by the afternoon sun. Location was brilliant and loved our small walks down the Esplanade. I would have loved a small aircon in the bedroom and a firmer mattress. Pool and restaurant are also great.
