Amazing location and very spacious. Great to have the golf buggy included as well - the kids loved that and the pool. Views from the balcony are incredible at any time of day (sunrise, sunset, moonrise etc!) and it was nice to be in a quieter part of the island but still a short trip to everything you need. It was clean, with comfy beds, and plenty of aircon/fans to keep the temperature pleasant. Would love to stay again.

Beautiful unit and absolutely stunning views. Was such a peaceful part of the island and so handy having the buggy to anywhere you need. Check in and check out was made super easy also with valet to and from airport. Would definitely recommend.

From the initial meet & greet at the airport, we were very pleased with the service. As there was an issue with accessing the property when we arrived, we were fortunate to gain a $100 voucher to spend for lunch. We loved the apartment - the location, everything that the venue offered. Sarah
