Amazing View & Location
Seaview Retreat has amazing views and is in a fabulous location. The apartment was very clean with an extremely comfortable mattress and refreshing shower. We were surprised to receive a parking permit although even with this, finding parking was very difficult.
The only disappointments were the slow WiFi connection and uncomfortable sofa.
We would happily stay again at Seaview Retreat.
