This was our first stay at this lovely resort and it certainly won’t be the last. The apartment was spacious and tastefully decorated to complement the gorgeous harbour view. It is probably a 20- 30 minute walk to the town but it is a delightful walk mostly with harbour views. Special thanks to the lovely lady on reception who made our stay even more enjoyable.
