We had a great short stay at this apartment and can surely recommend it. The location is very convenient, making it easy to explore everything The Entrance has to offer. We were impressed on the cleanliness of the place – it is clearly very well maintained. This was easily the best equipped apartment we have ever stayed in and the host has thought of absolutely everything you could need for a comfortable visit. Also, communication with the host (Jim) was excellent.

Better then listed

This property was perfect and had everything we needed. It was close to the water and my family and we enjoyed having wine in the balcony in the evenings and breakfast in the mornings. Such a wonderful stay and easy checkin process. Would highly recommend

Great host, responds fast. The apartment was stocked with everything possible. Even though we ate out most of the time it was handy to have when we made breaky. The apartment was very clean and had a really nice smell as well room sprays that we were able to use. Location is also great

Great for family get away

We were there for a work function. Being our ages are late forties found the place to be peaceful once the festival was finished. Not your ideal place if you are wanting a tranquil quiet atmosphere Could also be the time of year it is. Overall the accommodation was homely and inviting and the hosts were more than helpful and accommodating. If you are after a place that has lots to do and a buzzing atmosphere, this is definitely worth a visit for families with young kids.

Great location & well equipped unit

We stayed at the unit for 3 nights & it had everything we needed. Centrally located & close to restaurants & cafes. Lovely view from the balcony which was perfect for relaxing & reading a book. Unit complex is busy but inside the unit it is quiet. Would definitely stay here again. 🙂

Perfect

My husband and I stayed at Oceanview Escape and were blown away. This updated apartment was very comfortable, spotless, the decor was beautiful and the views superb. A great range of restaurants a minute or 2 away, we tried the Bang Rak Thai one night but stayed in for a bbq eating on the balcony another. Our stay was perfect and James was the perfect host. The complementary bottle of bubbles was a very nice touch. Would highly recommend to any couples wanting the choice of total relaxation on the balcony or restauranting, beaching, walking or swimming.

Perfect getaway

My wife and I stayed here for a weekend getaway and right from the start I knew we were going to enjoy it. The unit is perfectly equipped, modern and clean. The decor is stunning. The booking process was easy. The unit is perfectly situated right in the centre of The Entrance. Access to restaurants was great. We ate out the first night and the second night we ate in and enjoyed the view from the balcony. The kitchen has everything we needed. I have no hesitation in recommending this unit and we’ll definitely be back.
