Excellent apartment with a breathtaking view on the ocean. Well equipped with cooking facilities, dishwasher, washing machine, etc. The pool is clean, parking place is enough for small cars. However, the house is in a very steep and narrow street with dead end. Driving in or out can sometimes be tricky.

Wunderschöne Aussicht

Die Kommunikation mit dem Vermieter Garry war unkompliziert und funktionierte gut. Das Apartment war groß und geräumig, die Küche gut ausgestattet. Die Terrasse sehr schön und mit einer atemberaubenden Aussicht. Der Pool auch wirklich schön, hätte öfter gereinigt werden können sowie der Bereich um den Pool. Ich kann das Apartment nur empfehlen. Es war ein schöner Urlaub.
