"We stayed in one of the suite apartments for one night recently and it was fantastic, beautifully presented and clean. The communication with the staff was excellent and they are extremely helpful during the check in process with plenty of information which, given the location of the property, could be confusing without. Highly recommend a stay if you are in the area."
