We are a family of 6 and it was just fine. Perfect for a beach getaway. Beds a bit soft and no wifi- but this was a blessing in disguise. Great spot." - "Great location, very clean, and very well equipped, once you arrive you don't need anything. The owners have thought of everything... including spare batteries for the remote controls, movies, books, etc. maybe the only thing I would probably change would be more comfortable balcony chairs and a sign on the stepping onto the balcony as it is quite deep (I actually had a fall) The laundry was a problem needing 2 x $1.00 coins, and a key, and still didn't work otherwise a perfect place even on rainy days, you can sit on the couch and see the dolphins swim by. we were very happy overall...

- "The photos don’t do this property justice. The floor to roof glass doors invite the most spectacular view all day long. My favourite part was laying in bed as the sun rose, drinking a cup of tea looking for dolphins swimming by. The living areas are much larger than the photos seem. Everything was clean and well equipped. Our family had a wonderful stay and will be rebooking. There’s a lovely cafe downstairs with delicious coffee too. My only feedback for improvement is the shower heads in both bathrooms are terrible. Much like showering under a garden hose. If they are replaced this apartment would be absolutely perfect."
