Fantastic stay.

8.0

Great location, 180 degree sea view, very clean and spotless, fantastic breakfast, every detail make you feel like home. It was so quiet i literally got work done without even noticing there were other people in the property. Would be booking this place again soon. Loved the common seating room area, it was comfy and well layed out.

− The “sharing” of balcony space but however the separators came handy and thoughtful

Everything about the property was great. From our early check in to the lady who works at the front office,such a lovely lady and also the other ladies were amazing and helpful. Security is very tight as well.

− Nothing to be honest.
