We loved our stay at this apartment. It looked new, well furnished, spacious and clean. The staff was helpful. The best part about the apartment was that it’s right next to the shopping mall and the beach. Easy access to everything!

Lovely property, close to beach and shopping centre. At check in time, no one at reception, 2 others waiting also to check in. Called number but no response. Carparks very tight, signage or a map of location of allocated space be provided would be helpful. Construction materials - fenced off.

The apartments are aesthetically pleasing, and their location across from shops and cafes is highly convenient. Recently constructed, the development is nearing completion of its on-site restaurant, which will hopefully enhance the modern, minimalist aesthetic. I eagerly anticipate returning to experience the restaurant and its high-quality offerings. Exciting times Lowanna!
