Direct pool access to a fantastic pool!
Apartment 1011- Great location, very spacious clean apartment. Private plunge pool was wonderful to watch the sunset over the marina. The other side of the apartment had direct access to the huge resort pool. Will definitely stay again.
Overall the property was great - location amenities etc. my one complaint which was probably not your fault is that our young grandchildren hopped into the plunge pool as soon as we got there. Not long after getting g out they both started screaming complaint of sore eyes. Eyes were red and watering. The 3 yr old screamed for 2 hours. Luckily my daughter is an ED specialist and knew what to do. There were clumps of white matter on bottom of pool when we looked closely. Either chlorine or salt. Did mention it to reception on check out. I would recommend sign saying do not put head under water in plunge pool and /or Not for children .

Fantastic swim out pool access
Fantastic swim out pool access from the patio. Plunge pool off the large balcony at the rear which overlooks the boat harbour, also a 6 seater outdoor setting and a BBQ there. Stayed in June so too cold to use the plunge pool. Great position on a corner so quite private, it feels like you have your own private pool with no other units to the left of you. Spacious apartment with well appointed kitchen and good sized bedrooms with lovely views but no privacy in bedrooms as people can see straight in if blinds are open. (Only have block out blinds)
The only negatives would be the bed in the main bedroom in very small and uncomfortable and the lounge suite needs replacing as the leather/vinyl is all peeling off everwhere.
Overall had a lovely stay and would recommend this appartment because of its position.

Wedding experience
We stayed as part of a wedding group. The unit and facilities were good. It was a Great location with good access to transport and shops. I love the design of the pool. I liked the fact we had plenty of towels. The kitchen was well equipped with plenty of cutlery, glasses and crockery. The only disappointment was that there was no shade or fans on the deck for the wedding. I would choose the same unit if available when I stay there next.
