Very comfortable stay
Loved this set of units and it was somewhere I would rent long term if I could! The apartment has everything you need for a self contained stay, there’s a dairy across the road and restaurants near by. There’s a bus stop directly across the road for those without a car and the beach is within walking distance. The complex is quiet and you’re not bothered by anyone is have plenty of privacy.
Definitely recommend if this is your type of accomodation. Note; the nearest supermarket is in town and costs $18 one way to take a taxi there

Preis Leistung voll ok
Großes Familienappartement. Zustand ist für den Preis in Ordnung. Kostenlose Nutzung der Waschmaschine. Das Badezimmer war neu und im guten Zustand. Man ist schnell am Strand und die Bushaltestelle ist direkt vor dem Appartementkomplex.
