Guest comments
The apartment was in a superb position within excellent walking distance from the town.We were most impressed with the size and the fact that we all had our own bathrooms.We enjoyed the privacy of the pool, the balconies at the front which had the sun most of the day and the views were spectacular.We’ll be back!Sheila-Sept 2010
