A beautiful property with great views. We stayed 3 nights. The location was very close to the city centre, night life and the water which was great as we walked everywhere. Great communication with the host and check in was very easy.
A beautiful property with fantastic views of the beach from the private rooftop and apartment. Very well appointed with everything you would need for a long term stay. Host was very responsive and super helpful.
Clean, lovely view. It’s not the place for someone with mobility issues. Exit out of garage is an issue. You cannot get out with a fob inside the garage . You have to run outside garage and fob outside then run inside garage to get in car before gate closes. The sensor does not pickup your car if it starts closing only a person. So then if you don’t make it you then have to get out of your car and walk thru while garage door is closing to make it open again. A bit hard if it’s only one person , you need two to make it work. This was a problem and annoying.
