Whilst we enjoyed our stay at the unit, and the location with direct access to the beach is fabulous, some items detracted from our expectations.MOST IMPORTANTLY - Far more emphasis needs to be made regarding mobility & disability access on the website. All common areas & internal stairs (and the stairs to the bedrooms & bathroom within the unit itself) are totally unsuitable for anyone with ANY type of mobility issues. Crockery & glassware were not clean, we had to hand wash prior to using.A number of plates & glasses were crazed etc and should be replaced. Dishwasher needs a good service as detergent dispenser gets stuck, doesn’t open during the cycle and therefore nothing is cleaned properly. Kitchen bar stools were dirty, and required wiping over.Two seater leather lounge is torn from wear & tear (not by us) Place mates in cupboards were dirty, needed washing.Main bathroom one of the down lights not working.All fly screens in all rooms are filthy - all need a good clean. When left open dust & dirt just came in.Patio doors, the security bolts have corroded and need replacing.No tea towels were provided - thankfully we brought some with us.Outdoor table & chairs, were dirty and we had to clean them, Also there was one of the chairs missing. Overall, the unit is looking a bit tired & in need of some TLC & money spent.

Ok, but

Great location , unit comfortable but could do with "make over"/ update. Discription should have mentioned the 3 flights of stairs to get down to the ground floor unit.
