We LOVED this little apartment! It was so cutely decorated! Very Clean! Location PERFECT!! They thought of everything when furnishing this beautiful space! We loved the check in, easy and no fuss! Couldn’t have asked for a better place for us. Right across from the beach. There’s a cute little shop with a bar across from the place too that was so much fun! Definitely would book again!! Can’t wait to go back! The area was nice too. Didn’t have to worry about anything/anyone at night getting into your things.
