Amazing stay! The property was very clean, comfortable, and in a perfect location. Everything we needed was nearby, including shops, restaurants, and attractions. The host was friendly and responsive, and the pool was great as well. Overall, we had a wonderful experience and would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend!

Our stay was great. The pans are not the greatest. No pot holders. Only one dish towel. If you plan on cooking much, bring your own pans, dish towels and pot holders. The unit has been updated very nicely.
