    Perfect location for our family holiday.

    • Stayed 8 nights

    We didn’t have any wifi for the first couple of days but a tech guy eventually came and fixed the problem. I was expecting the living area to be a bit bigger, but we had great weather so we spent most of our time outdoors so it wasn’t an issue for us.

    Perfect location for our family group. The new outdoor area with the Sun loungers and outdoor shower was excellent. The view was great and the swimming and snorkeling right in front of the apartments was excellent. Kayaks and snorkeling gear was great too. It was also very convenient having the supermarket just over the road.

    Location was great. Close to everything: restaurants, shops, cafes, car rental, but still very private with a great beach access. The view was the best thing, unreal. Crystal clear water, great for swimming and snorkeling. Like a post card!

    The location and apartment were absolutely perfect. The snorkeling just outside the apartment was amazing, so many beautiful fish to look at! I could not recommend this apartment more! We enjoyed having a bbq too. The host was very responsive, we had broken snorkels and they replaced them straight away. Check in was easy and there is a 24/7 shop very close by, the kids loved getting ice creams there at night!

    Lack of kitchen basics for cooking I.e oil you need to bring stuff with you to cook at the house.

    Fantastic accomodation! The weather was quite windy during our stay but the beach in front of the apartments was protected from the wind as was our balcony. This was so nice as we could still sit outside and not be wind swept away! The apartment was clean and serviced every couple of days. Fantastic snorkelling right in front of the property and we saw a turtle every day right on high tide. My husband also saw a manta ray and a moray eel. We couldn’t fault this accomodation and would happily stay here again. Thank you.

    The only thing that was different is that the apartment was never serviced during out stay so could have had more soap/tea/coffee. It would have been good to have body wash and shampoo available too (Maybe in those sustainable bottles that are attached to the shower like hotels have). They could have had more children's sizes for life jackets and flippers. However everything else was so good, we didn't mind - this comment is more to prepare people to bring these things with you if you can, not a complaint. Also a roller blind would have been good in the main bedroom.

    Absolutely fabulous location right in front of a beautiful safe beach, perfect for swimming and snorkelling. We have two teenagers and so the two bedrooms were great, even though in a block of 4 apartments it was quiet and private. The master bedroom had a fantastic view as did the lounge. Internet was good, large shower and we never ran out of hot water. It was easy to get the keys when arriving at the apartment and easy to get the damage deposit back. There is a free laundry with washing machine, drying racks and dryer. Kayaks and life jackets were available, although large sizes. The apartment is not large but just like in the photos so there are no surprises. It was a minute walk to a local store and one of the best restaurants on the Island, Vaima Restaurant - the pizzas are very good and it's right on the beach! I would 100% recommend this apartment for anybody who values a fantastic view and being able to step right into a beautiful and safe beach from your apartment. The location is a huge highlight of this apartment!

    Would have been nice to have some basic items in the apartment like salt pepper. However there is a shop next door so it was not an issue.

    The location was amazing. The place had everything we needed. The beach out the back is amazing.
