"This was a lovely apartment! It had everything that we needed. We had contact-free check in and check out and it was very simple. Parking was right there and the room was perfect. "

"We were disappointed with how tired it was. We last stayed here about 10 yrs ago and it was amazing. Our first impressions was walking into our room and there was a curtain hanging off its hooks. There obviously had been a flood as the bottom of the kitchen cupboards had water damage. The only thing that saved the room was the view and the bed and linen were great 5 stars. But wouldn't go back unless they revamped the room. Was gutted when we paid over $400 a night you would expect better."

"We stayed in the Sand Dune unit. Lovely unit on beach front. Not at all noisy though you can slightly hear the neighbouring unit. Great to sit on the balcony and watch the world go by and enjoy the sound of the surf. Only stayed one night but would have loved to be able to stay longer. Ate dinner and breakfast at the Esplanade restaurant - very authentic Italian food, would highly recommend."

"This is a sort of bare minimum stop off type of facility. We only stayed two nights. There was an artificial scent room deodorizer that made the whole room stink. I immediately set it outside on the table. And then smells of sewage became apparent. But those Mild smells were only around the bathroom area and not the entire room and they were less offensive than the stinky room deodorizer. Otherwise, it was fairly comfortable. "

"The only reason I am marking this down is because there was a grand total of the kitchen. There were no sponges, tea towels or dishwashing supplies. There wasn't a full set of cooking equipment so it was difficult to cook for a group. The plates, glassware, mugs and cutlery etc. were cheap and unmatched. There were not enough glasses, plates or bowls for even four people. A tottal of one wineglass! When the rest of the place was so amazing, this really let it down. Also the small mirror on the...
