Unit was clean and tidy, everything was nice. If I had to be picky, the blinds didn’t shut properly and 2 of the bedrooms had pedestals fans - I thought the unit was air conditioned through out which made it quite warm. But overall enjoyed the stay and view

Enjoyed a 3 night stay in a 1 bedroom unit on the first floor, good views across the water to the islands. Comfortable bed although the rooms are a little tired and could do with a revamp, couch was pretty uncomfortable for sitting. Fan in the bedroom did not work properly and alerted the manager to this. Also tripped the electricity because we were running the aircon, then put on the washing machine and toaster at the same time. Location wise whilst it is not in the hustle and bustle of the Esplanade, it was perfect for what we wanted being nice and quiet and almost with private beachfront. 2 onsite pools were also enjoyable and meant that neither was overcrowded at any time. Overall a good stay!
