The views are equal to the best in the world. Our top floor ocean view apartment was excellent. Being seniors we were concerned about the stairs and packed lightly. But relaxing in the spa took away any aches & pains. On arrival we were greeted with tea & coffee Sachets with fresh milk & biscuits. Loved the spacious layout including kitchenette, beautifully fully decorated with lots of comfy cushions & pops of colour. Relaxing on the balcony drinking in the view was our favourite space. The balcony was sheltered from the wind with lots of sun. We booked in an extra night and will look forward to our next stay. Debbie & Paul

Loved how accomodating the staff was. She was able to squeeze us in the extra night that myself had mentioned in the last minute and matched the price of the first night. She was absolutely lovely. Amazing view. Beautiful setup and design of the apartment suites. Clean. All the amenities. The best for what we paid. Definitely coming back again.

Overall excellent, but the bed was old, a bit grubby and squeaky - it needs replaced. Also, the blankets are same - old, tired and had lots of hair on them - really poor. However, apartment and facilities - those issues aside - were great.

The apartment was beautifully fitted out with a great view and everything you could need in the kitchen; however the bed was too soft with no back support and unfortunately we did not sleep well because of this.

Nice nature environment and easy walk from the property to The Bluff. We had a nice room with the ocean view, but would be better without the two unattractive palm trees restricting the view.
