Lauren
The apartment was clean and tidy. The views were outstanding, we were lucky to catch a glimpse of the dolphins. There were treats and thoughtful essentials left by Teresa after a long travel which made settling in really easy. She was on call for any questions we had or recommendations. We were all sad to leave and hope to be back in the future.

The view is absolutely amazing. Everything you could need in the apartment and lovely extra touches, milk bread, butter and cake! Lovely harbour walks. We would certainly recommend.

Beautiful, well appointed flat. Spotlessly clean and well maintained. We were met at the property by the owner who was very welcoming and helpful. Amazing views of the sea from the property which added to our experience.
