Beautiful little apartment, super location, right near the beach and only a short walk to the town. Even tea, coffee, sugar provided, dishwasher tabs too, just helpful. Very quiet location, a haven of peace. And you can even see the sea from the lounge. I felt instantly chilled as soon as I walked in! Would highly recommend, and would certainly reRead morent here again! Hide
